摘要
The valley-orbit splitting in silicon quantum dots with shallow donors has been theoretically studied. In particular, the chemical-shift calculation was carried out within the frames of k center dot p approximation for single- and many-donor cases. For both cases, the great value of the chemical shift has been obtained compared to its bulk value. Such increase of the chemical shift becomes possible due to the quantum confinement effect in a dot. It is shown for the single-donor case that the level splitting and chemical shift strongly depend on the dot radius and donor position inside the nanocrystal. In the many-donor case, the chemical shift is almost proportional to the number of donors.
