The energies of two-electron quantum dots with the electron-LO-phonon couplingas a function of magnetic field are calculated. Calculations are made by using the method of few-body physics withinthe effective-mass approximation. Our results show that the electron-LO-phonon coupling effect is very important insemiconductor quantum dots.展开更多

In this paper, vortex can be represented by curvature c, which varies with arc length s. The variance of point (x, y) with arc length in stream line satisfies a 2-order variablecoefficient linear ordinary differential equation. The type vortex can be analyzed qualitatively by this ordinary differential equation.展开更多
