The self-consistent calculation of a spherical quantum dot: A quantum genetic algorithm study

摘要

In this study, we have calculated the subband energy level, potential profile, and the corresponding wavefunction and chemical potential for different temperatures and donor concentrations in a spherical quantum dot self-consistently. We have also investigated the effect of exchange-correlation potential on the energy levels. In addition, we have checked the applicability of quantum genetic algorithm to a realistic self-consistent quantum dot problem. In all computations, the penetration of wavefunction to the barrier region is taken into account. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
