Abstract
The Green's function technique, suitable for analyses of spatially deformed structures, is developed in this paper and applied to phonon system. The thermodynamic and kinetic phonon properties of cylindrical quantum dots are analysed using a developed method. As a consequence of the applied new method the configurational dependence of diffusion coefficient and dot's density were included into calculations. Maximum of diffusion and minimum of density is located in central part of the cylindrical quantum dot. All thermodynamic and kinetic characteristics of quantum dot are exponentially small at low temperatures. The low phonons specific heat as well as the low thermal conductivity lead to conclusion that in cylindrical quantum dots exist more convenient conditions for appearance of electron superconductivity.
