Electromagnetically induced transparency in a multilayered spherical quantum dot with hydrogenic impurity

In this paper the effects of size, hydrostatic pressure and temperature on electromagnetically induced transparency, as well as on absorption and the dispersion properties of multilayered spherical quantum dot with hydrogenic impurity are theoretically investigated. Energy eigenvalues and wavefunctions of quantum systems in three-level and four-level configurations are calculated using the shooting method, while optical properties are obtained using the density matrix formalism and master equations. It is shown that peaks of the optical properties experience a blue-shift with increasing hydrostatic pressure and red-shift with increasing temperature. The changes of optical properties as a consequence of changes in barrier wells widths are non-monotonic, and these changes are discussed in detail.
