Abstract

Recent measurements of electron escape from a non-equilibrium charged quantum dot are interpreted within a 2D separable model. The confining potential is derived from 3D self-consistent Poisson-Thomas-Fermi calculations. It is found that the sequence of decay lifetimes provides a sensitive test of the confining potential and its dependence on electron occupation.
