Spectra of cylindrical quantum dots: the effect of electrical and magnetic fields together with AB flux field

Abstract: We study the spectral properties of electron quantum dots (QDs) confined in 2D parabolic harmonic oscillator influenced by external uniform electrical and magnetic fields together with an Aharonov-Bohm (AB) flux field. We use the Nikiforov-Uvarov method in our calculations. Exact solutions for the energy levels and normalized wave functions are obtained for this exactly soluble quantum system. Based on the computed one-particle energetic spectrum and wave functions, the interband optical absorption GaAs spherical shape parabolic QDs is studied theoretically and the total optical absorption coefficient is calculated.
