  • Abstract
    Using the effective mass approximation within the variational approach, we have calculated the binding energy of the ground state of a hydrogenic on-center donor in a cylindrical GaAs quantum-well wire, under the action of a magnetic field applied in the axial direction. Our results are obtained as a function of the wire radii, and the magnetic field. We found that the values of the binding energy are determined by the competition between the quantum confinement and the applied magnetic field
