Electrooptical Properties of Cylindrical Quantum Dots

100%
EN
We show how to compute the optical functions (the complex electrosusceptibility tensor, dielectric tensor, electroreflection spectra) for semiconductor quantum dots exposed to a uniform static electric field in the growth direction, including the excitonic effects. The method uses the microscopic calculation of the quantum dot excitonic wave functions and energy levels, and the macroscopic real density matrix approach to compute the electromagnetic fields and susceptibilities. The electron-hole screened Coulomb potential is adapted and the valence band structure is taken into account in the cylindrical approximation, thus separating light- and heavy-hole motions. In the microscopic calculations, using the effective-mass approximation, we solve the 6-dimensional two-particle Schrödinger equation by transforming it into an infinite set of coupled second order 2-dimensional differential equations with the appropriate boundary conditions. These differential equations are solved numerically giving the eigenfunctions and the energy eigenvalues. Having them, we can compute the quantum dot electrooptical functions. Numerical calculations have been performed for an InGaAs quantum dot with a constant electric field applied in the growth direction. A good agreement with experiment is obtained.

We show how to compute the optical functions (the complex magneto-susceptibility, dielectric function, magneto-reflection and ellipsometric spectra) for semiconductor quantum disks exposed to a uniform magnetic field in the growth direction, including the excitonic effects. The optical response is calculated for an oblique incidence of the propagating electromagnetic wave and for input waves with different polarization. The method uses the microscopic calculation of nanostructure excitonic wave functions and energy levels, and the macroscopic real density matrix approach to compute the electromagnetic fields and susceptibilities. The electron-hole screened Coulomb potential is adapted and the valence band structure is taken into account in the cylindrical approximation, thus separating light- and heavy-hole motions. The novelty of our approach is that the solution is obtained in terms of known one-particle electron and hole eigenfunctions, since, in the considered nanostructure due to confinement effects accompanied by the e-h Coulomb interaction, the separation of the relative- and center-of-mass motion is not possible. We obtain both the eigenvalues and the eigenfunctions. The convergence of the proposed method is examined. We calculate the magnetooptical functions, including the optical Stokes parameters and ellipsometric functions for the case of oblique incidence. Numerical calculations were performed for InAs (disk)/ GaAs (barrier) disks. A good agreement with experiments was obtained.

The confinement potentials are taken as step-like both in the z and in-plane directions. Numerical calculations have been performed for In_{0.55}Al_{0.45}As (disk)/Al_{0.35}Ga_{0.65}As (barrier) and InP/GaP disks and the results are in a good agreement with the available experimental data.

Electro-Optical Properties of II-VI Superlattices

100%
EN
We show how to compute electro-optical spectra of semiconductor superlattices in the region of interband electronic transitions. The method uses the microscopic calculation of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions and the macroscopic real density matrix approach to compute the electromagnetic fields and susceptibilities. The electron-hole screened Coulomb potential is adapted and the valence band structure is taken into account in the cylindrical approximation, thus separating light- and heavy-hole motions. We calculate the electro-optical functions, including the optical Stokes parameters and ellipsometric functions for the case of oblique incidence. Results are given for Zn_{1-x}Cd_xSe/ZnSe superlattices and a good agreement with experiments is obtained.
