The ground state and binding energies of the hydrogenic impurity in a finite GaN/Al x Ga 1-x N parabolic quantum well (PQW) are investigated by using variational method. The effect of an electric field and spatial dependence effective mass (SDEM) are considered in the calculation. The results indicate that the effect of the SDEM on the energy levels is more obvious in the case of the narrower well width L. The effects decrease with increasing L, and tend to zero. The electric field shifts the energy levels towards lower energies with increasing well width L. Furthermore the ground state binding energy of the hydrogenic impurity in GaN/Al x Ga 1-x N PQWs is larger than that in GaAs/Al x Ga 1-x As PQWs. Therefore, we affirm that there is stronger quantum confinement effect in GaN/Al x Ga 1-x N PQW.

The effects of nitrogen and indium mole concentration on the intersubband optical absorption for (1–2) transition and the binding energy of the shallow-donor impurities in a Ga 1-x In x N y As 1-y/ GaAs / Al 0.3 Ga 0.7 As quantum well under the electric field is theoretically calculated within the framework of the effective-mass approximation. Results are obtained for several concentrations of nitrogen and indium, and the applied electric field. The numerical results show that the intersubband transitions and the impurity binding energy strongly depend on the nitrogen and indium concentrations.
