Abstract:
Based on the results of experiments of the nanostructured materials, the electronic structures of the spherical and circular cylindrical well in nanometer scale are calculated using a constant potential by direct solution of the Schrödinger equation. According to the result of the bound states existing only under certain conditions, the calculated results show that the energy level structures of these modes are quite distinct from that of the hydrogen atom. The number of energy levels is finite and it depends strongly on the potential parameter. The order of energy levels is E1s & lt;E2p & lt;E3d & lt;E2s & lt;E3p & lt;E4d & lt;… in the case of the artificially confined cavity of the sphere. It was exactly consistent with an investigation reported by T. Inoshita et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 57, 2560 (1986)]. The calculated results of the circular cylindrical wells have similar properties on the level structure compared with that of a square spherical artificial atom well.
