Magnetic field induced trions in a Telluride-based II–VI material

Abstract

Effects of geometrical confinement and magnetic field strength on the binding energies of trions (positive trion and negative trion) in a CdTe/ZnTe parabolic dot are investigated. Coulomb interaction energy is obtained by employing Hartree potential and the results are found numerically. The modified Chandrasekhar wavefunctions are employed to obtain the respective energies. The confined energies and the respective binding energies of charged trions are investigated by the self-consistent method. The Poisson equation is used to find the electron and hole potentials. The dielectric mismatch is included throughout the calculations. Magneto-optical transition energies for charged trions in the presence of magnetic field are observed. The effective Landé factor is brought out. Raman shift and the Raman intensity of positive and negative trions for various magnetic field strengths in the CdTe/ZnTe nanostructures are investigated. The dependence of Raman resonance on the magnetic field and the geometrical confinement effect is brought out.
