Optical electron transfer between quantum dots

The continuous spectrum in the problem of resonance optical transitions between bound states of quantum wells is taken into account by the method of equivalence transformation of the initial Hamiltonian. The effective Hamiltonian of resonance interaction, describing the decay of levels to a continuous spectrum, is obtained. The formulas obtained are applied to the problem of resonance electron transfer between quantum dots. The conditions for effective resonance electron transfer are determined.
