摘要
Recent experimental investigations of far-infrared attenuation in GaAs/InAs quantum dot in magnetic field and measurements of photoluminescence features for smaller pyramid-shape GaAs/InAs quantum dots indicated an enhancement of coupling of longitudinal optical phonons with confined electrons, which manifested itself in a significant increase of the effective Frohlich constant in comparison to its bulk value. We give a simple quasiclassical explanation of this enhancement and relate the renormalization of the Frohlich constant with the dot diameter. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
