Lack of low-cost, stable, and effective catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is
one of the key factors limiting the practical application of microbial fuel cells (MFCs). In this …

In the current article, the binding energy and impurity-related photoionization cross-section
are investigated for the case of an infinite confinement potential well model using a …

The optical properties of anisotropic quantum dots with ellipsoidal shape are investigated
and discussed as a function of the dot aspect ratio. The energy spectrum (ground and many …

We have studied the parallel and perpendicular electric field effects on the system of SiGe
prolate and oblate quantum dots numerically, taking into account the wetting layer and …

A unified characterization of the energy-level structure of quasi-one-dimensional quantum
dots is presented based on accurate computational results for the eigenenergies and wave …

We analytically and numerically investigate the energy states of an electron confined in the
conduction band of oblate spheroidal CdSe quantum dot with finite barrier height. The …

Exact series solutions for two electrons in one-dimensional nanorings have been obtained
by expanding the Coulomb potential into power series and solving the corresponding …

We calculate the g-factor for electron, holes, and electron-hole pairs in CdTe quantum dots
using the multiband k⋅ p theory. The results show that g-factors are highly sensitive to the …

CdSe/ZnTe core shell nanoparticles present original optical and electronic properties
because of the spatial separation of electrons and holes caused by the type-II alignment of …

A variational method called discrete variable representation is applied to study the energy
spectra of two interacting electrons in a quantum dot with a three-dimensional anisotropic …
