Abstract: | We explore the dynamics of harmonically confined single electron quantum dots as a function of dot size under periodically fluctuating confinement potential. The system of interest is a 2-D system in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field. We show that for given strengths of the magnetic field and effective mass, a periodic variation in the strength of the confinement potential could invite interesting features in the dynamics of the system. Also, the pattern of time evolution of eigenstates of the unperturbed system reveals significant size-dependence. The fluctuation in the confinement potential from its initial value is found to modulate the dynamical aspects in a prominent way. The presence of cubic anharmonicity in the confining field brings in new features in the dot dynamics. |
