In this work, we report the behavior of the tunneling current in a semiconductor nanostructure of (Ga, Al)As/GaAs which takes into account the behavior of the electrons and the Rashba’s spin orbit interaction in the presence of embedded quantum dots of different geometries (lens, pyramid and ring) in voltage function, magnetic field, and the different values of the interaction spin orbit (π/2, π/4 and 3π/4). The results that were obtained show, that the intensity of the current presents appreciable changes when is changed the configuration of the quantum dot as the intensities of external fields and spin polarization as well. All these internal and external effects that are studied in our model, significantly modify the transport of information of the semiconductor nanostructure, our results show that the spin effects and the quantum dot configuration contribute to the quantum memories efficiency and the spin filter devices of actual use on nanoscience and nanotechnology.
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.
