The influence of deformations on single electron states in a molecule formed from three quantum dots of the heterosystem InAs/GaAs

Abstract

A molecule consisting of three quantum dots, whose centers form a triangle of the InAs/GaAs heterosystem, was studied. A numerical calculation of the energy spectrum of an electron in a molecule formed from three spherical quantum dots was carried out. The influence of deformations on the electron energy depending on the size of the nanocrystals, the distance between them, and the symmetry of the quantum molecule were investigated. The case of symmetry of an equilateral and isosceles triangle is considered.
