Oscillator strengths of the intersubband electronic transitions in the multi-layered nano-antidots with hydrogenic impurity

In this study, we have obtained the exact solutions of the Schrödinger equation for a multi-layered quantum antidot (MLQAD) within the effective mass approximation and dielectric continuum model for the spherical symmetry. The MLQAD is nano-structured semiconductor system that consists of a spherical core (e.g. $Ga_{1-x}Al_{x}As $) and a coated spherical shell (e.g. $Ga_{1-y}Al_{y}As $) as the whole anti-dot is embedded inside a bulk material (e.g. $GaAs $). The dependence of the electron energy spectrum and its radial probability density on nano-system radius are studied. The numeric calculations and analysis of oscillator strength of intersubband quantum transition from the ground state into two first allowed excited states at the varying radius, for both the finite and infinite confining potential (CP) as well as constant shell thickness, are performed. It is shown that, in particular, the binding energy and the oscillator strength of the hydrogenic impurity of a MLQAD behave differently from that of a single-layered quantum antidot (SLQAD). For a MLQAD with finite core and shell CPs, the state energies and the oscillator strengths of the impurity are found to be dependent on the shell thickness. At the large core radius and very small shell thickness, our results are closer to respective values for a SLQAD that previously reported.
