Abstract: The method of few-body physics is applied to treating negatively charged excitons in a quantum disk. The energies of low-lying states of a negatively charged exciton are calculated for a few values of the electron-to-hole mass ratio. A new bound state of a negatively charged exciton in a quantum disk with orbital angular momentum L = 1 and the triplet state of the two bound electrons are predicted. The binding energy of a negatively charged exciton asfunction of disk radius for the heavy hole and the light hole is investigated.

Key words: few-body system, trion, quantum disk
