Tuning the binding energy of on-center donor in CdSe/ZnTe core/shell quantum dot by spatial parameters and magnetic field strength

• The behavior of the electron ground state and of the ground state binding energy of an on-center donor confined in a CdSe/ZnTe core/shell spherical nanodot was examined theoretically within the framework of the effectivemass approximation and using a variational calculation. The radial dependence of the dielectric constant and of the electron effective mass as well as the effect of the polarization charge were considered. Our results highlight the large impact of the magnetic field strength and the spatial parameters on the energy behavior for both the electron and the donor. Our study points out also the fact that the magnetic confinement may be eclipsed by the spatial confinement in heteronanostructures with small size and expected to be dominant in the opposite case.
