Abstract

The low-lying spectra of parabolic quantum dots with or without an impurity at the center are investigated. While it has been known that the electron-electron interaction leads to ground-state transitions on magic values of angular momentum in a magnetic field. We show, in this paper, that the implantation of an impurity ion at the center can either enhance or suppress such transitions, depending on whether it is an acceptor or a donor ion.
