Progress in semiconductor technology has enabled the fabrication of structures so small that
they can contain just one mobile electron. By varying controllably the number of electrons in …

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

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 …

We demonstrate coupling and entangling of quantum states in a pair of vertically aligned,
self-assembled quantum dots by studying the emission of an interacting electron-hole pair …

We theoretically study a double-quantum-dot hydrogen molecule in the GaAs conduction
band as the basic elementary gate for a quantum computer, with the electron spins in the …

The purpose of this review is to survey the status of the theory and experiment which can
contribute to our knowledge of plasmon excitations in synthetic semiconductor …

We present a new high performance configuration interaction code optimally designed for
the calculation of the lowest-energy eigenstates of a few electrons in semiconductor …

The conductance through two quantum dots in series is studied using general qualitative
arguments and quantitative slave-boson mean-field theory. It is demonstrated that …

This book is devoted to the description of Bosonic and Fermionic systems: metallic clusters;
quantum dots, wires, rings and molecules; trapped Fermi and Bose atoms; liquid drops of …

A theoretical study is presented for excitons in coupled self-assembled InGaAs quantum
dots. We have proposed a model of an isolated single quantum dot based on the …
