摘要
We study the electronic and optical properties of GaAs quantum dot embedded in Ga1-yAlyAs matrix. Using the effective mass approximation with the finite confinement potential the intraband energy levels and the wave-functions are obtained. The linear and third order nonlinear optical properties, photoabsorption coefficient, refractive index change and susceptibility are studied for different dot radius in the terahertz region.
