The electronic structure of conical quantum dots through effective mass approximation is determined analytically. Linear, nonlinear, and total absorption coefficients, as well as the refractive indices of GaAs conical dots, are calculated. The effects of the size of the dots and of the incident electromagnetic field are investigated. Results show that the total absorption coefficient and the refractive index of the dots largely depend on the size of the dots and on the intensity and polarization of the incident electromaenetic field.展开更多

文摘Solving the quadratically constrained quadratic programming(QCQP)problem is in general NP-hard.Only a few subclasses of the QCQP problem are known to be polynomial-time solvable.Recently,the QCQP problem with a nonconvex quadratic objective function over one ball and two parallel linear constraints is proven to have an exact computable representation,which reformulates the original problem as a linear semidefinite program with additional linear and second-order cone constraints.In this paper,we provide exact computable representations for some more subclasses of the QCQP problem,in particular,the subclass with one secondorder cone constraint and two special linear constraints.
