Abstract
We have calculated the energy levels and the radial probability distributions of an electron with an impurity in a spherical quantum dot which is layered as GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs/AlAs. The numerical method used is the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method in the framework of the effective mass approximation. The variation of the energy levels have been calculated as functions of the radius of the GaAs sphere and the thickness of AlxGa1-xAs spherical layer considering effective mass and dielectric constant mismatches. The results have presented the importance of the geometry on the electronic properties of the spherical GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs/AlAs quantum dot.
