Calculation of bound and resonant donor states of GaAs in a magnetic field

摘要

The effect of a magnetic field on the energy spectrum of a hydrogenic impurity is investigated using a basis expansion technique. Several excited impurity states, of which some are resonant, are found. Lifetimes are calculated and, by including an electric field, we are able to explain forbidden but experimentally observed optical transitions. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
