R. Cingolani et al., Influence of Coulomb and exchange interaction on quantum dot magnetoluminescence up to B=45 T, PHYS ST S-A, 178(1), 2000, pp. 263-268
The influence of the direct and exchange Coulomb interaction on Landau leve
l formation in strain induced QD has been studied by high-field (45 T) magn
eto-luminescence measurements and by many-electron many-hole Hartree-Fock c
alculations. At high magnetic fields the degeneracy of the QD electron and
hole ground states is increased as several zero-field eigenstates merge int
o the lowest Landau level. This leads to removal of the state filling and a
ccordingly in high magnetic field the QD luminescence is emitted from the l
owest Landau level. Using a generalization of Koopmans theorem for electron
-hale many particle systems, we have studied the enhancement of the direct
and exchange Coulomb interaction in squeezed carrier states. The results sh
ow that for 6 to 8 electron-hole pairs the direct and exchange interaction
both reduce the diamagnetic shift by 15 to 25 %.
