Abstract

We have presented exact solutions for two-dimensional (2D) hydrogenic donor states in a magnetic field and a study of quantum levels and Zeeman bifurcation of 2D donor states in different strength of magnetic field. The quadratic effect of the magnetic field partly lifts the degeneracy of 2D donor states in the pure Coulomb potential and results in an increase of all quantum levels. Then, the first-order term of a magnetic field, i.e., the Zeeman term, completely lifts the degeneracy. At strong magnetic field, the degeneracy of Landau levels is lifted by the Coulomb potential. As the magnetic field decreases, all of the values of the energies decrease linearly until the hybridization between Landau and Coulomb levels occurs. In addition, based on the comparison between energies of 2D and 3D states, we conclude that there are smaller diamagnetic shifts for 2D donor states than those for the corresponding 3D donor states.

APS and the Physical Review Editorial Office Continue to Support Researchers

COVID-19 has impacted many institutions and organizations around the world, disrupting the progress of research. Through this difficult time APS and the Physical Review editorial office are fully equipped and actively working to support researchers by continuing to carry out all editorial and peer-review functions and publish research in the journals as well as minimizing disruption to journal access.

We appreciate your continued effort and commitment to helping advance science, and allowing us to publish the best physics journals in the world. And we hope you, and your loved ones, are staying safe and healthy.

Ways to Access APS Journal Articles Off-Campus

Many researchers now find themselves working away from their institutions and, thus, may have trouble accessing the Physical Review journals. To address this, we have been improving access via several different mechanisms. See Off-Campus Access to Physical Review for further instructions.
