Linear and nonlinear optical properties in spherical quantum dots: Rosen-Morse potential

摘要

In this paper, we have studied optical properties of spherical quantum dots by using Rosen-Morse potential. In this regard, we have first solved the Schrodinger equation and obtained energy levels and wave functions by applying Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method. Then, by using density matrix method, we have applied analytical expressions for the linear and third-order nonlinear absorption coefficient and refractive index changes. The results show that the total refractive index changes and the absorption coefficients increase and shift towards higher by enhancing height potential.
