Influence of Confined Optical Phonons and Laser Radiation on the Radioelectric Effect in a Cylindrical Semiconductor Quantum Wire with Parabolic Potential

Abstract

Based on the quantum kinetic equation method, the influence of confined optical phonons and laser radiation on the Radioelectric effect in a cylindrical semiconductor quantum wire with parabolic potential subjected to a dc electric field and a linearly polarized electromagnetic wave has been theoretically studied. The obtained analytical expression of the Radioelectric field (REF) depends on frequencies and amplitudes of the external electromagnetic waves, the quantum wire parameters, the temperature of the system, and especially the quantum numbers (n and m) which characterize the phonon confinement. Numerical calculations for the GaAs/GaAsAl quantum wire show the strongly impact of the confined optical phonons as well as the laser radiation on the REF magnitude and posture. The REF also has more resonance peaks in comparison with that in case of bulk phonon.
