Abstract
We report a perturbative-variational calculation on the effect of magnetic and electric fields on excitons in parabolic quantum dots. The effects of electric and magnetic fields on 1 s exciton energy and oscillator strength are investigated. The competition between the confinement and correlation effects on the one hand, and the external field effects (electric and magnetic) on the other hand, is also discussed.Keywords
