Size-dependent intersubband optical properties of dome-shaped InAs/GaAs quantum dots with wetting layer. 
In this work, the effects of size and wetting layer (WL) on subband electronic envelop functions, eigenenergies, linear and nonlinear absorption coefficients, and refractive indices of a dome-shaped InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) were investigated.  In our model, a dome of InAs QD with its WL embedded in a GaAs matrix was considered.  A finite height barrier potential at the InAs/GaAs interface was assumed.  To calculate envelope functions and eigenenergies, the effective one-electronic-band Hamiltonian and electron effective mass approximation were used.  The linear and nonlinear optical properties were calculated by the density matrix formalism.
