Abstract :
An attempt is made to investigate theoretically the effect of electric and magnetic fields on an n-GaAs semiconductor quantum box. The magnitude of energy shift due to the electric or magnetic field increases with the field strength. The shift is also more pronounced for larger box dimensions
