The properties of quasi-two-dimensional semiconductor quantum dots are reviewed.
Experimental techniques for measuring the electronic shell structure and the effect of …

Spin density functional theory is used to calculate the ground state electronic structures of
circular parabolic quantum dots. We find that such dots either have a spin configuration …

The theory of electron correlation in semiconductor quantum dots is reviewed with emphasis
on the physics of dots in strong magnetic fields. A brief survey of dot fabrication and …

We study the ground-state properties of rectangular quantum dots by using the spin-density-
functional theory and quantum Monte Carlo methods. The dot geometry is determined by an …

Using spin-density-functional theory, we study the electronic states of a two-dimensional
parabolic quantum dot with up to N= 58 electrons. We observe a shell structure for the filling …

We present an overview of the theoretical background and experimental re sults in the
rapidly developing field of semiconductor quantum dots-systems 8 6 of dimensions as small …

Electronic structures in circular, elliptic, and triangular shaped quantum dots containing
single or a few electrons are calculated by numerically diagonalizing the N-electron …

The few-electron states of the lens-shaped self-assembled quantum dots in the magnetic
field are studied. The calculated charging and infrared absorption spectra reflect the …

The electronic structure of lens-shaped self-assembled quantum dots is studied as a
function of the dot size, the confining potential, and the magnetic field. The parabolic …

We present a study of ground-state energies and densities of quantum dots in a magnetic
field, which takes into account correlation effects through the current-density-functional …
