摘要
Using a variational method and the effective-mass approximation, we calculated the binding energy for shallow-donor impurities in spherical GaAs-(Ga, Al)As quantum dots. In this paper we present results for different dimensions of the structure and radial impurity positions. Calculations include the hydrostatic pressure effects. We discuss the hydrostatic pressure dependence on the binding energy and the photoionization cross-section. The measurement of photoionization in such systems would be of great interest in understanding the optical properties of carriers in quantum dots. (C) 2004 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
