Investigation of linear and nonlinear optical properties in quantum dots: Influence of magnetic and AB flux fields

In the present work, analytical expressions for the energy eigenvalues and eigen functions are obtained by solving the radial Schrodinger equation for inverse quadratic Hellmann plus Yukawa (IQHY) potential using Nikiforov-Uvarov functional analysis method. As an application part of this work, expressions for the linear and third-order nonlinear absorption coefficients and refractive index changes are computed to study the optical properties of the spherical GaAs quantum dots. We extend the investigation of the IQHY potential by incorporating the effects of magnetic and Aharonov-Bohm (AB) flux fields. Our results reveal that the optical properties of the GaAs quantum dots are strongly influenced by variations in the dot radius, potential height and intensity of incident photons. Specifically, we observe that the introduction of magnetic and AB flux fields significantly alters the energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions, leading to distinct optical characteristics. The results of present study are found in consistent with other theoretical studies available in the literature.
