In this paper,the ground state energies of hydrogen-like impurity in a lens-shaped quantum dot ( GaAs / In 1-x Ga x As ) under vertical magnetic field have been discussed by using effective mass approximation and variational method. It gives that for a lens-shaped quantum dot, due to the asymmetry of the vertical and lateral bound potentials, the electronic ground state energies are related not only with the deviation distance but also with the deviation direction; for the spherical quantum dot, the ground state energy is only related with the distance of the impurity deviation, neither with vertical nor lateral deviation. And with the increasing of the magnetic field, the ground state energy is increasing.

The properties of a strong-coupled bound magnetopolaron in an asymmetric quantum dot (QD) have been investigated by using the Tokuda modified linear combination operator and the unitary transformation methods on the basis of the Huybrechts' strong-coupled model. We derive the expressions of the ground-state energy as function of the transverse and longitudinal confinement lengths, the magnetic field. Numerical calculation is performed and the results show that the ground-state energy of the bound magnetopolaron splits into two branches, taking into account the spin influences. And the ground-state energy decreases with increasing the transverse and longitudinal confinement lengths and increases with the rising of the magnetic field.

Influence of the magnetic field on the properties of the polaron in an asymmetric quantum dot is studied by using the Pekar variation method. The expression of the magnetopolaron ground-state energy is obtained by theoretical derivation. The relationship between the ground-state energy of the magnetopolaron with the transverse confinement strength, the longitudinal confinement strength and the magnetic field cyclotron resonance frequency are further discussed by us. Due to the crystal structure inversion asymmetry and the time inversion asymmetry, the polaron energy causes Rashba spin–orbit splitting and Zeeman splitting. Under the strong and weak magnetic fields, we discuss the dominant position of Rashba effect and Zeeman effect, respectively. Due to the presence of phonons, the polaron is more stable than the bare electron state, and the energy splitting is more stable.

Influence of the lattice vibration on the properties of the magnetopolaron in the parabolic quantum dots (QDs) is studied by using the Huybrechts' linear combination operator and Lee–Low–Pines (LLP) transformation methods. The expressions for the vibration frequency and the ground-state energy of the magnetopolaron as functions of the confinement strength of the QDs, the magnetic field and temperature are derived under the strong and weak coupling, respectively. The results of the numerical calculations show that the changes of the vibration frequency and ground-state energy of the magnetopolaron with the confinement strength of the QDs, the magnetic field and temperature are different under different couplings. The vibration frequency and the ground-state energy of the weak-coupling magnetopolaron and the vibration frequency of the strong-coupling magnetopolaron will increase with increase of the confinement strength of the QDs and cyclotron frequency, the vibration frequency and ground-state energy of the strong-coupling magnetopolaron. However, the ground-state energy of the weak-coupling magnetopolaron will decrease with increase of the temperature. The dependence of the ground-state energy of the strong-coupling magnetopolaron on the confinement strength of the QDs and cyclotron frequency is strongly influenced by the temperature. The remarkable influence of the temperature on the ground-state energy of the magnetopolaron arises when the temperature is relatively higher.

The polaronic correction to the ground-state energy of the electron confined in a cylindrical quantum dot (QD) subject to electric and magnetic fields along the growth axis has been investigated. Using a combinative approach of perturbative theory and variational wavefunction, calculations are performed for an infinitely deep confinement potential outside the QD within the effective mass and adiabatic approximation. We have treated the system by taking into consideration the interaction of the electron with the confined longitudinal optical (LO) phonons as well as the side surface (SSO) and the top surface (TSO) optical phonons.1,2 The ground-state energy shift is obtained as a function of the cylindrical radius and the strength of electric and magnetic fields. The results show that the magnetic field heavily enhances the three types of phonon mode contribution to the correction of the electron ground-state energy while the electric field only improves the contribution of surface phonons (SSO and TSO) but decreases the contribution of LO phonons.

We conducted a theoretical study on the properties of a polaron with electron-LO phonon strong-coupling in a cylindrical quantum dot under an electric field using linear combination operator and unitary transformation methods. The changing relations between the ground state energy of the polaron in the quantum dot and the electric field intensity, restricted intensity, and cylindrical height were derived. The numerical results show that the polar of the quantum dot is enlarged with increasing restricted intensity and decreasing cylindrical height, and with cylindrical height at 0 ~ 5 nm , the polar of the quantum dot is strongest. The ground state energy decreases with increasing electric field intensity, and at the moment of just adding electric field, quantum polarization is strongest.

In this paper, the effects of a repulsive scattering center on the ground-state energy and spin properties of a three-electron parabolic quantum dot are investigated theoretically by means of configuration interaction method. Phase transition from a weakly correlated regime to a strongly correlated regime is examined from several strengths and positions of Gaussian impurity. Numerical results reveal that the transition from spin-1/2 to spin-3/2 state depends strongly on the location of the impurity which accordingly states the controllability of the spin polarization. Moreover, broken circular symmetry results in more pronounced electronic charge localization.
