Özet

The physical properties of a two-dimensional parabolic quantum dot composed of large number of interacting electrons are numerically determined by the Thomas Fermi (TF) method at a finite temperature. Analytical solutions are given for zero temperature for comparative purposes. The exact solution of the TF equation is obtained for the non-interacting system at finite temperatures. The effect of the number of particles and temperature on the properties are investigated both for interacting and non-interacting cases. The results indicate that the effect of e e interaction on the density profile shows different temperature dependencies above and below a certain temperature T-c. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V.
