The spectra of all types of phonons existing in a complicated combined nanoheterosystem consisting of three cylindrical quantum dots embedded into the cylindrical quantum wire placed into vacuum are studied within the dielectric continuum model. It is shown that there are confined optical (LO) and interface phonons of two types: top surface optical (TSO) and side surface optical (SSO) modes of vibration in such a nanosystem. The dependences of phonon energies on the quasiwave numbers and geometrical parameters of quantum dots are investigated and analysed.
The spectra of two types of interface phonons (top and side optical) are studied within the framework of dielectric continuum model for combined nanoheterosystems consisting of semiconductor cylindrical quantum dots inside the cylindrical quantum wire placed into dielectric or semiconductor medium. The dependencies of both types of interface phonon energies on the quasiwave numbers and geometric parameters of nanosystem are calculated and analysed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
