Quasi-bound states of Schrodinger and Dirac electrons in magnetic quantum dot

M. Ramezani Masir, A. Matulis, F. M. Peeters

Published 2009-07-21Version 1

The properties of a two-dimensional electron are investigated in the presence of a circular step magnetic field profile. Both electrons with parabolic dispersion as well as Dirac electrons with linear dispersion are studied. We found that in such a magnetic quantum dot no electrons can be confined. Nevertheless close to the Landau levels quasi-bound states can exist with a rather long life time.
