The energy spectra of low-lying states of an exciton in a single and a vertically coupled quantum dots arestudied under the influence of a perpendicularly applied magnetic field. Calculations are made by using the method ofnumerical diagonalization of the Hamiltonian within the effective-mass approximation. We also calculated the bindingenergy of the ground and the excited states of an exciton in a single quantum dot and that in a vertically coupledquantum dot as a function of the dot radius for different values of the distance and the magnetic field strength.

Two Interacting Electrons in a Vertically Coupled Quantum Dot

We study a two-electron system in a double-layer quantum dot under a magnetic field by means of the exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian matrix.We find that discontinuous ground-state energy transitions are induced by an external magnetic field in the case of strong coupling.However,in the case of weak coupling,the angular momentum L of the true ground state does not change in accordance with the change of the magnetic field B and remains L=0.     

Asymmetric Double Quantum Dots as a Subminiature Mesoscopic Cell

A subminiature mesoscopic cell,consisting of asymmetric double quantum dots capacitively coupled to a nearby mesoscopic circuit,is proposed,which can transform disordered noise energy to ordered electric energy.Two schemes,the noises originating from the nearby mesoscopic circuit and from the electromagnetic wave disturbance in external environment,are investigated.We found that the proposed cell can manifest as a good constant current source and the output current may not reach its largest value even if the circuit is shorted.     

AC Conductance Through a Vibrating Molecular Dot in Kondo Regime

In the present paper, by applying the Lang-Firsov canonical transformation and the so-called non-crossing approximation technique, we investigate the joint effects of the electron-phonon interaction and an external alternating gate voltage on the transport of a quantum dot system in the Kondo regime. We find that, while the satellite Kondo resonant peaks appear in both the averaged local density of states and the differential conductance, the main Kondo peak at the Fermi energy is greatly suppressed. These results confirm the previous ones derived by other methods, such as the equation of motion solution. Furthermore, based on the picture of virtual transition between quasi-eigenstates in the system, we also give a slightly different explanation on these phenomena.     

Spin-Polarized Electron Tunneling TD:\pdf\.PDFhrough a Quantum Dot

Nonequilibrium Green's function is uscd to study spin-polarized electron tunneling through a quantum dot connected to two ferromagnetic electrodes with different orientations via two insulating barriers (FM/I/QD/I/FA.f). Intra-level Coulomb interaction in the dot is considered. General formula of tunneling current which can be used for arbitrary angle between the two electrodes' magnetizations is derived for both the weak and strong intra-dot interactions.We find that the transport current can be divided into two parts: the current with the spin-flip and the current without the spin-flip, which critically depend on the linewidth function near the Fermi level of the ferromagnetic electrodes. If a magnetic field is applied in the quantum dot, different behaviors will be found for weak and strong interactions.

Calculations are made by using the method of few-body physics withinthe effective-mass approximation. Our results show that the electron-LO-phonon coupling effect is very important insemiconductor quantum dots.

Off—Center D—Centers in a Quantum Dot in the Presence of a Perpendicular Magnetic Fields

We investigate the effect of the position of the donor in quantum dots on the energy spectrum in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field by using the method of few-body physics,As a function of the magnetic field,we find,when D^- centers are placed sufficiently off-center,discontinuous ground-state transitions which are similar to those found in many-electron parabolic quantum dots.Series of magic numbers of angular momentum which minimize the ground-state electron-electron interaction energy have been discovered.The dependence of the binding energy of the gound-state of the D^- center on the dot radius for a few values of the magnetic field strength is obtained and compared with other results.     

Quantum Effect in the Mesoscopic RLC Circuits with a Source

The research work on the quantum effects in mesoscopic circuits has undergone a rapid development recently, however the whole quantum theory of the mesoscopic circuits should consider the discreteness of the electric charge. In this paper, based on the fundamental fact that the electric charge takes discrete values, the finite-difference Schrodinger equation of the mesoscopic RLC circuit with a source is achieved. With a unitary transformation, the Schrodinger equation becomes the standard Mathieu equation, then the energy spectrum and the wave functions of the system are obtained. Using the WKBJ method, the average of durrents and square of the current are calculated. The results show the existence of the current fluctuation, which causes noise in the circuits. This paper is an application of the whole quantum mesoscopic circuits theory to the fundamental circuits, and the results will shed light on the design of the miniation circuits, especially on the purpose of reducing quantum noise coherent controlling of the mesoscopic quantum states.

Persistent Current in a Mesoscopic Ring Side-Attached with a Quantum Dot

We theoretically investigate properties of the ground state of a closed dot-ring system with a magnetic flux in the Kondo regime by means of a tight-banding Anderson Hamiltonian, using the Slave-Boson mean-field approach. The persistent current shows interesting dependences on the parity and on the size of the system. The signature of Kondo resonance at ζk/L = 0.15 is expected to be observed experimentally in the future. With the intensity of the coupling tD changes from weak to strong, the properties of the system changes largely, which are different from the in-line one because of the attached dot.     

Anomalous Kondo-Switching Effect of a Spin-Flip Quantum Dot Embedded in an Aharonov-Bohm Ring

We theoretically investigate the Kondo effect of a quantum dot embedded in a mesoscopic Aharonov-Bohm （AIR） ring in the presence of the spin flip processes by means of the one-impurity Anderson Hamiltonian. Based on the slave-boson mean-field theory, we find that in this system the persistent current （PC） sensitively depends on the parity and size of the AB ring and can be tuned by the spin-flip scattering （R）. In the small AB ring, the PC is suppressed due to the enhancing R weakening the Kondo resonance. On the contrary, in the large AB ring, with R increasing, the peak of PC firstly moves up to max-peak and then down. Especially, the PC phase shift of π appears suddenly with the proper value of R, implying the existence of the anomalous Kondo effect in this system. Thus this system may be a carldidate for quantum switch.
