Resumen

A partir de la aproximación de electrón libre dentro de un semiconductor, se realizó análisis numérico del espectro energético y la densidad de probabilidad electrónica de un electrón dentro de un nanohilo hexagonal con estructura núcleo-corteza. En el análisis se consideró el efecto de aplicar un campo magnético en la dirección de crecimiento del nanohilo y se resolvió numéricamente la ecuación de Schrödinger para el electrón localizado en el plano transversal de la estructura en presencia del campo externo; los cálculos se realizaron por medio de elementos finitos implementados con COMSOL Multiphysics®. Los resultados obtenidos permitieron identificar capas energéticas, compuestas, cada una, de seis niveles. Estas capas se atribuyen a la geometría hexagonal conformada por seis pozos de potencial creados debido al abrupto cambio de dirección de los bordes de la estructura. Adicionalmente, se observaron las oscilaciones Aharonov-Bohm del sistema para una estructura con grosor significativo de la capa.
