In this article we present a study of the effects of hydrostatic pressure on the energy levels of a quantum dot with an electron. A quantum dot is modeled using an infinite potential well and a two-dimensional harmonic oscillator and solved through the formalism of second quantization.A scheme for the implementation of a quantum NOT gate controlled with hydrostatic pressure is proposed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
