In the model of effective masses and rectangular potentials, the
effect of a hydrogen-like donor impurity on the energy spectrum,
electron wave functions and oscillator strengths of intraband quantum
transitions in a quantum dot–quantum ring semiconductor
nanostructure (GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs) is studied theoretically. The stationary
Schr€odinger equation for an electron interacting with an impurity
cannot be solved analytically exactly. For its approximate solution,
the unknown wave functions are sought in the form of an expansion
over a complete set of cylindrically symmetric wave functions in the
nanostructure without impurity, and the electron energy is found by
solving the corresponding secular equation. The dependences of the
energy spectrum, the binding energy of the electron with the impurity
and the oscillator strengths of the quantum intraband transitions
on the geometric parameters of the nanostructure are analyzed.
