The ground-state energy of polaron was obtained with strong electron-LO-phonon coupling by using a variational method of the Pekar type in a parabolic quantum dot (QD). Quantum transition occurred in the quantum system due to the electron–phonon interaction and the influence of temperature. That is, the polaron transits from the ground state to the first excited state after absorbing a LO-phonon. Numerical calculations are performed and the results illustrate the relations of the transition rate of the polaron on the ground-state energy of polaron, the cyclotron frequency parameter, the Coulomb binding parameter, the temperature, the electron-LO-phonon coupling strength and the confinement length of the quantum dot.

The ground-state energy of polaron was obtained with strong electron-LO-phonon coupling by using a variational method of the Pekar type in a parabolic quantum dot (QD). Quantum transition occurs in the quantum system due to the electron-phonon interaction and the influence of temperature. That is the polaron transition from the ground-state to the first-excited state after absorbing a LO-phonon and it causes the changing of the polaron lifetime. Numerical calculations are performed and the results illustrate the relations of the ground-state lifetime of the polaron on the ground-state energy of polaron, the electric field strength, the temperature, the electron-LO-phonon coupling strength and the confinement length of the quantum dot.

We have studied the effect of the electron–phonon interaction on the energy levels of the bound polaron and calculated the ground-state energy, the binding energy of the ground state, and the 1 s → 2 p ± transition energy in the GaAs/Al x Ga 1-x As parabolic quantum well (PQW) structure by using a modified Lee–Low–Pines (LLP) variational method. The numerical results are given and discussed. It is found that the contribution of electron–phonon interaction to the ground-state energy and the binding energy is obvious, especially in large well-width PQWs. The electron–phonon interaction should not be neglected.

We conducted a theoretical study on the properties of a polaron with electron-LO phonon strong-coupling in a cylindrical quantum dot under an electric field using linear combination operator and unitary transformation methods. The changing relations between the ground state energy of the polaron in the quantum dot and the electric field intensity, restricted intensity, and cylindrical height were derived. The numerical results show that the polar of the quantum dot is enlarged with increasing restricted intensity and decreasing cylindrical height, and with cylindrical height at 0 ~ 5 nm , the polar of the quantum dot is strongest. The ground state energy decreases with increasing electric field intensity, and at the moment of just adding electric field, quantum polarization is strongest.

In this paper, the effects of a repulsive scattering center on the ground-state energy and spin properties of a three-electron parabolic quantum dot are investigated theoretically by means of configuration interaction method. Phase transition from a weakly correlated regime to a strongly correlated regime is examined from several strengths and positions of Gaussian impurity. Numerical results reveal that the transition from spin-1/2 to spin-3/2 state depends strongly on the location of the impurity which accordingly states the controllability of the spin polarization. Moreover, broken circular symmetry results in more pronounced electronic charge localization.
