Abstract
The strain and magnetic field effect on thermodynamic properties of a two dimensional GaAs quantum dot (QD) is investigated within the effective mass approximation. To this end, first we have obtained the wave functions and energy levels of the system in the presence of Bychkov-Rashba and Dressalhaus terms. Then using the obtained energy levels, we have computed the partition function by the Poisson summation formalism. Afterward, we have deduced some thermodynamic properties such as mean energy, entropy, specific heat and free energy using the canonical ensemble approach. Finally, the thermodynamic properties for a two dimensional GaAs QD have been discussed in detail.
