Quantum Monte Carlo study of circular quantum dots in presence of Rashba interaction

Abstract

We present the numerical Quantum Monte Carlo results for the ground state energy of circular quantum dots in which Rashba spin-orbit iteraction is present. Diffusion Monte Carlo with spin propagation is applied in order to treat the spin-orbit interaction correctly, following previous work done in the fieldof the two-dimensional electron gas. Together with ground state energies, also numerical results for density and spin-density profiles are given.
