Abstract

We study impurity states in a cylindrical quantum dot with two confining potentials: in the direction of cylinder axis modified Pöschl-Teller potential and in radial direction parabolic potential. Studies of impurity states are performed in the frames of variational method and by using numerical methods, the dependences of the particle energy on the geometrical parameters of the cylindrical quantum dot are derived. Dependences of the electron binding energy on the half-width and depth of the potential wall are revealed.
