The binding energy of a hydrogenic donor impurity in cylindrical GaAs quantum ring (QR) subjected to an external magnetic field is calculated within the effect mass approximation using variational method. The binding energy as a function of the QR size (the inner radius, the outer radius), the impurity position and the applied magnetic field is investigated. The results demonstrate that the ground state binding energy behaves as an decreasing function of the outer radius, and the magnetic field. Likewise, the binding energy is an increasing function of the inner radius. The binding energy firstly increases and then decreases with shifting the impurity ion from the internal surface of the QR to the external surface, indicating that there is a maximum.

Within the framework of the effective-mass approximation and by using a variational and perturbation approach, the binding energies and photoionization cross-sections of donor and acceptor impurities in an inverted core/shell ellipsoidal spherical quantum dot under an applied magnetic field have been studied. We have calculated the binding energies of both donor and acceptor impurities as a function of the core and shell sizes and shapes with different impurity positions under the applied magnetic field. In addition, the corresponding photoionization cross-section is calculated. Our results show that the binding energy of the acceptor impurity is larger than that of the donor impurity, and both of them with different impurity positions and quantum ellipsoid anisotropies will exhibit a nonmonotonic change. The peak value of the photoionization cross-section will reach a maximum with the increasing ratio R1/R2. It is found that the applied magnetic field can be an effective means of enhancing the photoionization cross-section of an impurity state in such core/shell quantum dot system.
