Simultaneous effects of magnetic field, pressure and temperature on the exciton binding energies are found in a 9.0 1.0 6.0 4.0 GaAs P / GaAs P quantum dot. Numerical calculations are carried out taking into consideration of spatial confinement effect. The cylindrical system is taken in the present problem with the strain effects. The electronic properties and the optical properties are found with the combined effects of magnetic field strength, hydrostatic pressure and temperature values. The exciton binding energies and the nonlinear optical properties are carried out taking into consideration of geometrical confinement and the external perturbations.Compact density approach is employed to obtain the nonlinear optical properties. The optical rectification coefficient is obtained with the photon energy in the presence of pressure, temperature and external magnetic field strength. Pressure and temperature dependence on nonlinear optical susceptibilities of generation of second and third order harmonics as a function of incident photon energy are brought out in the influence of magnetic field strength. The result shows that the electronic and nonlinear optical properties are significantly modified by the applications of external perturbations in a 9.0 1.0 6.0 4.0 GaAs P / GaAs P quantum dot.

The linear and nonlinear optical properties in a wurtzite In x Ga 1-x N / Al y Ga 1-y N strained spherical quantum dot (QD) subjected to a uniform external electric field with a direction opposite to that of the built-in electric (BEF) within the framework of effective-mass approximation have been investigated. The results show that the BEF has great effects on the linear and nonlinear optical absorption coefficients (ACs) and refractive index (RI) changes. Moreover, the dependence of the linear and nonlinear optical properties on the In composition, on the Al composition and on the inner sphere radius has been studied in detail. It is indicated that the ACs and RI changes of the Wurtzite spherical QD have strongly affected by these factors. The results may make a significant contribution to designing some important photodetectors and photonic crystal devices.
