Abstract: | A detailed investigation of the nonlinear optical properties of the (D+, X) complex in a disc-like quantum dot (QD) with the parabolic confinement, under applied magnetic field, has been carried by using the perturbation method and the compact density-matrix approach. The linear and nonlinear optical absorption coefficients between the ground (L = 0) and the first excited state (L = 1) have been examined based on the computed energies and wave functions. The competition between the confinement and correlation effects on the one hand, and the magnetic field effects on the other hand, is also discussed. The results show that the confinement strength of QDs and the intensity of the illumination have drastic effects on the nonlinear optical properties. In addition, we note that the absorption coefficients of an exciton in QDs depend strongly on the impurity but weakly on the magnetic field. Furthermore, the light and heavy hole excitons should be taken into account when we study the optical properties of an exciton in a disc-like QD. |
