Confinement Characterization of a 2-Electron Quantum Dot

preprint2003arXivOpen access

Abstract

The time independent Schoedinger equation for two electrons confined in a parabolic external potential is solved. Developing this solution in terms of a dimensionless variable it is demonstrated that parameterization of the strength of the confining potential separate from the effective mass assumption greatly clarifies the functional dependence of the system energy on the system parameters. The determination of the strength of the external confinement and validation of the effective mass assumption in real devices is greatly improved by characterizing the strength of the confining potential separate from the effective mass.
