Abstract

In this study, the electronic and optical properties of single or core/shell quantum dots, which are formed depending on the parameters in the selected Konwent potential, are investigated. Namely, the effects of the size and geometric shapes of quantum dots on the binding energy of the on-center donor impurity, the total absorption coefficient and refractive index which are including transitions between the some confined states, and the electromagnetically induced transparency between the lowest six confined states related to the donor impurity are investigated. We have used the diagonalization method by choosing a wave function based on the Bessel and Spherical Harmonics orthonormal function to find the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the electron confined within the quantum dots which have different types mentioned above. To calculate the optical absorption coefficients and electromagnetically induced transparency related to shallow-donor impurity, a two- and three-level approach in the density matrix expansion is used, respectively.
