Abstract

Different nanostructured quantum dot can be implemented and used in different applications and also quantum dots can be fabricated using different materials. In this paper, electronic properties of quantum dot nanocrystals with different Nanomaterials such as InAs, GaAs, Ge and Si were analyzed by analytical solution of Schrödinger Equation for 1D, 2D and 3D particle in a cube box. Different Quantum Dots have been compared against their electron energy states and finally wavefunctions and probability density function is presented.
