The binding energy of the exciton in the symmetric and asymmetric GaAs/Ga 1-x Al x As quantum wells is calculated with the use of a variational approach. Results have been obtained as a function of the potential symmetry, and the size of the quantum well in the presence of an arbitrary magnetic fiel

We have calculated the exciton binding energy in an Al x Ga 1-x As/GaAs double quantum well by a variational envelope function procedure using a simple two-band model. The influence of the shift of the AlAs separating barrier, introducing an asymmetry into the system, on the value of the exciton bin
The binding energy of the single and double bound polaron bound to a helium-type donor impurity in quantum wells (QWs) subject to a perpendicular electric field are calculated by a variational method. The couplings of an electron and the impurity with various phonon modes are considered. The results
The conduction and valence subband energies in the presence of an electric field are calculated using the fifth-order Runge-Kutta method. The binding energies of shallow donors, acceptors and excitons in finite-barrier GaAs/Ga 1-x Al x As quantum wells are then obtained variationally in the presence
Using a variational procedure within the effective-mass approximation we have calculated the binding energies of shallow-donor impurities in cylindrical GaAs quantum-well wires, in an axial magnetic field and an infinite confinement potential. In contrast to the previous results in quantum wells, we
The effects of an applied electric field on subband energies and excitonic binding for a graded GaAlAs quantum well are calculated variationally within the effective mass approximation. The very sensitive dependence of subband energies on the applied field is calculated using a model potential profi
