摘要
The binding energy of a hydrogenic impurity in self-assembled double quantum dots is calculated via the finitedifference method. The variation in binding energy with donor position, structure parameters and external magnetic field is studied in detail. The results found are： （i） the binding energy has a complex behaviour due to coupling between the two dots; （ii） the binding energy is much larger when the donor is placed in the centre of one dot than in other positions; and （iii） the external magnetic field has different effects on the binding energy for different quantum-dot sizes or lateral confinements.
