Within the quasi-one-dimensional effective potential model and effective mass approximation, we calculate the ground and the first few excited state binding energies of a donor impurity in a rectangular quantum dot (RQD) in the presence of electric field. We discuss detailedly dependence of the binding energies on the impurity positions. The results show that the binding energy is the largest when the impurity is located at the center of RQD with zero field and is lowest when the impurity is located at the corner of the RQD. The peak strengths and positions of the probability density in RQD appear to be the critical control on such impurity-induced dependence. We believe our results can provide an indication for design of some photoelectric devices constructed based on GaAs RQD structures.

Based on the effective-mass approximation, considering the built-in electric field effect due to the spontaneous and piezoelectric polarizations, the ground-state donor binding energy of a hygrogenic impurity in a cylindrical wurzite (WZ) ZnO / MgZnO strained quantum dot (QD) is investigated variationally. Numerical results show that the ground-state donor binding energy is highly dependent on the Mg composition, the impurity positions and the QD size. The built-in electric field also induces an asymmetric distribution of the ground-state donor binding energy with respect to the center of the QD. In particular, it is found that the ground-state donor binding energy is insensible to the dot height when the impurity is located at the right boundary of the WZ ZnO / MgZnO strained QD if the dot height is large.

The effect of electric field, dielectric screening, conduction band nonparabolicity and effective mass mismatch of a hydrogenic donor in a GaAs/Ga[Formula: see text]Al[Formula: see text]As spherical quantum dot is investigated by assuming parabolic confinement using variational method. In the present work we obtain the increase of binding energy by decreasing the dot size for certain dot radii (50 Å) and the screening function gives uniformly larger values for smaller dot size. The effect of electric field and temperature decrease the donor binding energy whereas the conduction band nonparabolicity leads to increased binding energy.
