    Linear and nonlinear optical properties in colloidal CdSe/CdS core/shell quantum dots with different sizes have been theoretically investigated in the framework of effective mass approximation. The electron states in colloidal CdSe/CdS core/shell quantum dots have been calculated using the finite element method. The intraband linear and nonlinear absorption spectra have been calculated for colloidal CdSe/CdS core/shell quantum dots with different sizes. In addition, the dependences of the linear and nonlinear refractive index change on the incident light energy have been calculated. In the last section of the paper the second- and third-order harmonic generation spectra have been presented

    By using the numerical discretization method within the effective-mass approximation, we have theoretically investigated the exciton-related Raman scattering, interband absorption and photoluminescence in colloidal CdSe/CdS core/shell quantum dots ensemble. The interband optical absorption and photoluminescence spectra have been revealed for CdSe/CdS quantum dots, taking into account the size dispersion of the ensemble. Numerical calculation of the differential cross section has been presented for the exciton-related Stokes–Raman scattering in CdSe/CdS quantum dots ensemble with different mean sizes

    The current work used the effective mass approximation conjoined with the finite element method to study the exciton states in a conical GaAs quantum dot. In particular, the dependence of the exciton energy on the geometrical parameters of a conical quantum dot has been studied. Once the one-particle eigenvalue equations have been solved, both for electrons and holes, the available information on energies and wave functions is used as input to calculate exciton energy and the effective band gap of the system. The lifetime of an exciton in a conical quantum dot has been estimated and shown to be in the range of nanoseconds. In addition, exciton-related Raman scattering, interband light absorption and photoluminescence in conical GaAs quantum dots have been calculated. It has been shown that with a decrease in the size of the quantum dot, the absorption peak has a blue shift, which is more pronounced for quantum dots of smaller sizes. Furthermore, the interband optical absorption and photoluminescence spectra have been revealed for different sizes of GaAs quantum dot
