Hydrostatic pressure and magnetic field effect on the excited states in inverse parabolic quantum dot

The hydrostatic pressure (P) influence of the degenerate energy states inside an inverse parabolic quantum dot (IPQD), with and without an external magnetic field, was performed within the frame of the effective mass approximation. Our theoretical results showed that the effect of relatively high pressure clearly appeared to induce a crossing between the excited states in the strong confinement region. But in the weak confinement region, such crossing disappeared and, in addition, the excited states got reordered. In the presence of an external magnetic field the hydrostatic pressure modified the crossing points of the degenerate states. We investigated the electron-heavy hole transition energy. It displayed a blue shift with increasing the pressure values and the magnetic field strength. But it showed an adhesive red shift by increasing the IPQD size.
