Abstract
A time-domain simulation method is presented that utilizes the Hartree-Fock formulation to characterize two particles in a quantum dot. The basis of t he simulation is the finite-difference time-domain method. The computation is made tractable by formulating the Coulomb and exchange terms as digital filtering problems, and utilizing two-dimensional fast Fourier transforms. Two-electron wave packet dynamics are calculated. (C) 2001 American Institu te of Physics.
