One-electron system with an on-center impurity is considered by assuming a spherically symmetric confining potential of finite depth. The ground and excited state energies of one-electron QD were calculated depending on the dot radius and stoichiometric ratio. Expectation values of energy were determined by using the HFR method along with Slater-Type Orbitals (STOs) and QGA was used for the wave-functions optimization. In addition, the effect of the size of the basis set on the energy of QD was investigated. We also calculated the binding energy for a dot with finite confining potential. We found that the impurity binding energy increases for the finite potential well when the dot radius decreases. For the finite potential well, the binding energy reaches a peak value and then diminishes to a limiting value corresponding to the radius for which there are no bound states in the well. Whereas in previous study, in Ref. 40, for the infinite potential well, we found that the impurity binding energy increases as the dot radius decreases.en10.1142/S0129183108012315info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccesselectronic structure of spherical quantum dotquantum genetic algorithmhydrogenlike impurityHartree-Fock Roothaan methodslater-type orbitalCalculation of electronic structure of a spherical quantum dot using a combination of quantum genetic algorithm and Hartree-Fock-Roothaan methodArticle194599609Q3WOS:000257761200005Q4
