Abstract

Condensed Matter Physics
We consider lowest energy states of electrons confined in asymmetrical circular vertically stacked double InAs/GaAs quantum dot molecule. The energies where computed by using the effective three-dimensional one band Hamiltonian, the energy (non-parabolic) and position dependent electronic effective mass approximation, and the Ben Daniel-Duke boundary conditions with the finite hard wall confinement potential. We demonstrated theoretically a possibility to drive dynamically coupled electronic states (relocate electronic wave functions from one dot to another) by applying external magnetic field. © 2006 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
