Energy of a Polaron in a Wurtzite Nitride Finite Parabolic Quantum Well

The effects of electron-phonon interaction on energy levels of a polaron in a wurtzite nitride finite parabolic quantum well （PQW） are studied by using a modified Lee-Low-Pines variational method. The ground state, first excited state, and transition energy of the polaron in the GaN/Al0.3Ga0.7N wurtzite PQW are calculated by taking account of the influence of confined LO（TO）-like phonon modes and the half-spaee LO（TO）-like phonon modes and considering the anisotropy of all kinds of phonon modes. The numerical results are given and discussed. The results show that the electron-phonon interaction strongly affects the energy levels of the polaron, and the contributions from phonons to the energy of a polaron in a wurtzite nitride PQW are greater than that in an A1GaAs PQW. This indicates that ehe electron-phonon interaction in a wurtzite nitride PQW is not negligible.     

Polarons with Spatially Dependent Mass in a Finite Parabolic Quantum Well

We study the energy levels of an electron (or hole) polaron in a parabolic quantum well structure,including the spatial dependence of the effective mass.We also consider the two-mode behaviour of longitudinal optical phonon modes of the ternary mixed crystals in the structure,in the calculation of the effect of the electron phonon interaction.We calculate the ground state,the first excited state and the transition energy of an electron (or hole) in the GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs parabolic quantum well structure.The numerical results show that the electron-phonon interaction obviously affects the energy levels of the electron (or hole),which are in agreement with experimental results.     

Zero-Magnetic-Field Spin Splitting of Polaron‘s Ground State Energy Induced by Rashba Spin-Orbit Interaction

We study theoretically the ground state energy of a polaron near the interface of a polar-polar semiconductor by considering the Rashba spin-orbit (SO) coupling with the Lee-Low-Pines intermediate coupling method. Our numerical results show that the Rashba SO interaction originating from the inversion asymmetry in the heterostructure splits the ground state energy of the polaron. The electron arealdensity and vector dependence of the ratio of the SO interaction to the total ground state energy or other energy composition are obvious. One can see that even without any external magnetic field, the ground state energy can be split by the Rashba SO interaction, and this split is not a single but a complex one. Since the presents of the phonons, whose energy gives negative contribution to the polaron‘s,the spin-splitting states of the polaron are more stable than electron‘s.     

Effects of electron–optical phonon interactions on the polaron energy in a wurtzite ZnO/Mg_xZn_(1-x)O quantum well

We investigated the properties of polarons in a wurtzite ZnO/MgxZn1-xO quantum well by adopting a modified Lee–Low–Pines variational method, giving the ground state energy, transition energy, and phonon contributions from various optical-phonon modes to the ground state energy as functions of the well width and Mg composition. In our calculations, we considered the effects of confined optical phonon modes, interface-optical phonon modes, and half-space phonon modes, as well as the anisotropy of the electron effective band mass, phonon frequency, and dielectric constant. Our numerical results indicate that the electron–optical phonon interactions importantly affect the polaronic energies in the ZnO/MgxZn1-xO quantum well. The electron–optical phonon interactions decrease the polaron energies. For quantum wells with narrower wells, the interface optical phonon and half-space phonon modes contribute more to the polaronic energies than the confined phonon modes. However, for wider quantum wells, the total contribution to the polaronic energy mainly comes from the confined modes. The contributions of the various phonon modes to the transition energy change differently with increasing well width. The contribution of the half-space phonons decreases slowly as the QW width increases, whereas the contributions of the confined and interface phonons reach a maximum at d ≈ 5.0 nm and then decrease slowly. However,the total contribution of phonon modes to the transition energy is negative and increases gradually with the QW width of d.As the composition x increases, the total contribution of phonons to the ground state energies increases slowly, but the total contributions of phonons to the transition energies decrease gradually. We analyze the physical reasons for these behaviors in detail.     

Vibrational frequency of a strong-coupling polaron in a quantum rod at finite temperatures

The Hamiltonian of a quantum rod with a boundary is presented after a coordinate transformation that changes the original ellipsoidal boundary into a spherical one. We then study the effect of temperature on the vibrational frequency and the ground state binding energy of the strong-coupling polaron in the rod. The two quantities are expressed as functions of the aspect ratio of the ellipsoid, the transverse and the longitudinal effective confinement lengths, the temperature and the electron—phonon coupling strength by linear combination operator and unitary transformation methods. It is found that the vibrational frequency and the ground state binding energy will increase rapidly with decreasing transverse and longitudinal effective confinement lengths. They are increasing functions of the electron—phonon coupling strength but become decreasing ones of the temperature and the aspect ratio.     

Properties of a Bound Polaron under a Perpendicular Magnetic Field

We investigate the influence of a perpendicular magnetic field on a bound polaron near the interface of a polar-polar semiconductor with Rashba effect. The external magnetic field strongly changes the ground state binding energy of the polaron and the Rashba spin-orbit （SO） interaction originating from the inversion asymmetry in the heterostructure splits the ground state binding energy of the bound polaron. In this paper, we have shown how the ground state binding energy will be with the change of the external magnetic field, the location of a single impurity, the wave vector of the electron and the electron areal density, taking into account the SO coupling. Due to the presence of the phonons, whose energy gives negative contribution to the polaron＇s, the spin-splitting states of the bound polaron are more stable, and we find that in the condition of week magnetic field, the Zeeaman effect can be neglected.     

Zero-Magnetic-Field Spin Splitting of Polaron＇s Ground State Energy Induced by Rashba Spin-Orbit Interaction

We study theoretically the ground state energy of a polaron near the interface of a polar-polar semiconductor by considering the Rashba spin-orbit （SO） coupling with the Lee-Low-Pines intermediate coupling method. Our numerical results show that the Rashba SO interaction originating from the inversion asymmetry in the heterostructure splits the ground state energy of the polaron. The electron area/density and vector dependence of the ratio of the SO interaction to the total ground state energy or other energy composition are obvious. One can see that even without any external magnetic field, the ground state energy can be split by the Rashba SO interaction, and this split is not a single but a complex one. Since the presents of the phonons, whose energy gives negative contribution to the polaron＇s, the spin-splitting states of the polaron are more stable than electron＇s.     

Effects of an anisotropic parabolic potential and Coulomb’s impurity potential on the energy characteristics of asymmetrical semi-exponential CsI quantum wells

Because of its unique optoelectronic properties,people have studied the characteristics of polarons in various quantum well(QW)models.Among them,the asymmetrical semiexponential QW(ASEQW)is a new model for studying the structure of QWs in recent years.It is of great significance to study the influences of the impurity and anisotropic parabolic confinement potential(APCP)on the crystal’s properties,because some of the impurities,usually regarded as Coulomb’s impurity potential(CIP),will exist in the crystal more or less,and the APCP has flexible adjustment parameters.However,the energy characteristics of the ASEQW under the combined actions of impurities and APCP have not been studied,which is the motivation of this paper.Using the linear combination operation and Lee-Low-Pines unitary transformation methods,we investigate the vibrational frequency and the ground state energy of the strong coupling polaron in an ASEQW with the influences of the CIP at the origin of coordinates and APCP,and make a comparison between our results and previous literature’s.Our numerical results about the energy properties in the ASEQW influenced by the CIP and APCP may have important significances for experimental design and device preparation.     

Quantum entanglement transition in vertically coupledtwo single-electron quantum dots with charged impurity

Effects of a charged impurity on the ground state of two vertically coupled identical single-electron quantum dots with and without applied magnetic field are investigated. In the absence of the magnetic field, the investigations of the charged impurity effect on the quantum entanglement (QE) in some low-lying states are carried out. It is found that, both the positive charged impurity (PCI) and the negative charged impurity (NCI)reduce the QE in the low-lying states under oonsideration except that the QE in the ground state is enhanced by the NCI. Additionally, in the domain of B from 0 Tesla to 15 Tesla, the ground state energy E, the ground state angular momentum L and the ground state QE entropy S are worked out. As far as the ground state are concerned, the PCI (NCI) blocks (induces) the angular momentum phase transition and the QE phase transition besides the known fact (i. e., the PCI/NCI decreases/increases the energy) in the magnetic field.     

The energy levels of a two-electron two-dimensional parabolic quantum dot

This paper studies the two-electron total energy and the energy of the electron--electron interaction by using a variational method of Pekar type on the condition of electric--LO-phonon strong coupling in a parabolic quantum dot. It considers the following three cases: 1) two electrons are in the ground state; 2) one electron is in the ground state, the other is in the first-excited state; 3) two electrons are in the first-excited state. The relations of the two-electron total energy and the energy of the electron--electron interaction on the Coulomb binding parameter, the electron-LO-phonon coupling constant and the confinement length of the quantum dot are derived in the three cases.

Bound polaron in a wurtzite GaN/AlxGa1 − xN ellipsoidal finite-potential quantum dot

A variational method is used to study the ground state of a bound polaron in a weakly oblate wurtzite GaN/Al_xGa_1 − xN ellipsoidal quantum dot. The binding energy of the bound polaron is calculated by taking the electron couples with both branches of LO-like and TO-like phonons due to the anisotropic effect into account. The interaction between impurity and phonons has also been considered to obtain the binding energy of a bound polaron. The results show that the binding energy of bound polaron reaches a peak value as the quantum dot radius increases and then diminishes for the finite potential well. We found that the binding energy of bound polaron is reduced by the phonons effect on the impurity states, the contribution of LO-like phonon to the binding energy is dominant, the anisotropic angle and ellipticity influence on the binding energy are small.     

Coherent interaction and action-counteraction theory in small polaron systems,and ground state properties

Based on the coherent interaction and action-counteraction principles, we investigate the ground state properties for small polaron systems, the coherent-squeezed fluctuation correction, and the anomalous lattice quantum fluctuation, with the new variational generator containing correlated squeezed-coherent coupling and quantum entanglement. Noting that $-2t $ is the T.B.A. energy, for the coherent interaction effect, we find the ground-state energy $E_0$ to be $-2.428t$, in which the coherent squeezed fluctuation correction $-A_0 t$ is $-0.463t $ (where $ t $ is the hopping integral, $\omega $ is the phonon frequency), with the electron-one-phonon coupling constant $g=$1 and the electron-two-phonon coupling constant $g_{1}=-0.1$. However, as a result of the action-counteraction effect, $\tilde{{E}}_{0} $ is $-2.788t$, but $-\tilde{{A}}_{0} t$ is $-0.735t$. As to the polaron binding energy $(E_{\rm P} )$, for the coherent interaction effect, $E_{\rm P} $ is $-1.38\omega $, but for the action-counteraction effect, $\tilde{{E}}_{\rm P}$ is $-1.88\omega $. In particular, the electron-two-phonon interaction noticeably enlarges the coherent interaction and the coherent squeezed quantum fluctuation correction. By intervening with the quantum entanglement, the evolutions of the squeezed coherent state and the lattice quantum fluctuation begin to take control. At that time, we encounter a new quantum phase coherence phenomenon — the collapse and revival of inversion repeatedly for the coherent state in the entangled evolution.     

Combined polaron states in magnetooptical effects in a quantum well

Combined polaron states in a rectangular quantum well in a strong magnetic field perpendicular to the well plane are discussed. These states are due to interaction between two discrete electron levels with different Landau quantum numbers (n and n ₁) and different size-quantization quantum numbers (m and m ₁) on the one hand and a confined LO phonon on the other under conditions of low temperature when the energy difference between the electronic levelsis equal or close to the energy of the confined LO phonon. The expression for the resonant magnetic field H _res at which a combined polaron is formed contains the energy difference between size-quantized levels, so it is a function of quantum well parameters. The separation ΔE _res between branches in the energy spectrum of a combined polaron and H _res has been calculated as a function of the quantum well width d. The resonant field H _res can be reduced dramatically in comparison with the case m=m ₁. The case of size-quantization with n=n ₁ has been analyzed. The energy difference ΔE _res is in the range (1–5)· 10⁻³ eV. The damping of combined polaron states due to the effect of anharmonicity on the LO phonon has been studied. Interband absorption and features in the reflection spectrum due to interband transitions have been calculated for an arbitrary ratio between the radiative and “phonon” lifetime of a combined polaron have been investigated.
