On depolarisation in 0D systems: Lamb-like level shift

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

An extremely quantized 0D system is studied for better understanding of an importance of many-body corrections to an one-electron spectrum. A new approach is proposed to describe the correction appearing as a depolarisation level shift of a (confined) electron moving within an electric field of a (confined) collective mode. For a quantum dot the correction diminishes at the size about 104-105 atoms, depending also on other system parameters. For a closed-shell carbon cluster the effect does not depend on the cluster size owing to stronger quantization and the one-electron estimation does not fit anywhere. For the semiconductor quantum dot system an experimental method to check the depolarisation model is proposed.
