Abstract:
We analyze for the first time the coupled influence of band mixing, strain, and piezoelectricity on electronic structure, eigenstates, and optical transition strengths for InAs/GaAs quantum-ring structures. It is shown that band mixing and strain alter the level energies and optical absorption coefficients significantly.
