Intersubband optical absorption coefficient and refractive index changes of a weakly prolate ellipsoidal quantum dot, using the compact-density matrix formalism and iterative method, are investigated. In this regard, the linear and nonlinear intersubband optical absorption coefficient and refractive index changes of a GaAs / Al x Ga 1-x As ellipsoidal quantum dot, as functions of the dot radius, ellipticity constant, stoichiometric ratio and incident light intensity are calculated. The results indicate that absorption coefficient and refractive index changes strongly depend on the light intensity, size and geometry of the dot and structure parameters such as aluminium concentration in GaAs / Al x Ga 1-x As structures.

The intersubband optical absorption in cylindrical quantum dot quantum well (QDQW) for different sizes of QDQW is theoretically studied. The analytical expression of the absorption coefficient is derived by using the compact density-matrix approach and the iterative method. And the numerical calculations are presented for a typical GaAs / AlGaAs QDQW. The results obtained show that the optical absorption coefficient in the QDQW can be importantly modified by size of shell well. Moreover, they also show that the optical absorption is strongly dependent on the incident optical intensity.

The polaronic effect on the linear, third-order nonlinear and total optical absorption coefficients have been calculated in the case of GaAs/AlAs core/shell quantum dot, with the impurity is positioned at the central radial position of the GaAs shell. The calculations are realized in the framework of the effective mass approximation and the numerical results are obtained by using a variational method and an infinite confining potential. The results show that the polaronic effect has a great influence on optical properties of core/ shell quantum dot, he causes a red-shift of the nonlinear optical coefficients associated to light absorption. Also, the polaronic effect is enhanced with the decreasing of quantum dot radius.
