We conducted a theoretical study on the properties of a polaron with electron-LO phonon strong-coupling in a cylindrical quantum dot under an electric field using linear combination operator and unitary transformation methods. The changing relations between the ground state energy of the polaron in the quantum dot and the electric field intensity, restricted intensity, and cylindrical height were derived. The numerical results show that the polar of the quantum dot is enlarged with increasing restricted intensity and decreasing cylindrical height, and with cylindrical height at 0 ~ 5 nm , the polar of the quantum dot is strongest. The ground state energy decreases with increasing electric field intensity, and at the moment of just adding electric field, quantum polarization is strongest.

The ground-state energy of polaron was obtained with strong electron-LO-phonon coupling by using a variational method of the Pekar type in a parabolic quantum dot (QD). Quantum transition occurs in the quantum system due to the electron-phonon interaction and the influence of temperature. That is the polaron transition from the ground-state to the first-excited state after absorbing a LO-phonon and it causes the changing of the polaron lifetime. Numerical calculations are performed and the results illustrate the relations of the ground-state lifetime of the polaron on the ground-state energy of polaron, the electric field strength, the temperature, the electron-LO-phonon coupling strength and the confinement length of the quantum dot.

Representative strained values of effective mass and potential of charge carriers in indium arsenide ( InAs ) quantum dots have been used as input to the complete orthonormal set approach of an effective-mass, single-band, and constant-potential model for the calculation of the ground state energy levels. Even with the avoidance of the diagonalization of the strain Hamiltonian matrix, the single-band-model-calculated ground state energy levels are reasonably refined by the use of representative strained values of potential and effective mass.
