摘要： Using a recently developed new scheme, we investigated the electronic structure of the lowest conduction band states of cuboid GaAs quantum dots with different shapes and sizes in a wide range from 4 to 120a (a is the lattice constant). The critical edge length of the direct/indirect crossover in GaAs cuboid quantum dots depends on the size and shape of the quantum dots. As a deduction we also discussed the critical size of dlrect/indirect transition in GaAs quantum wires and thin films.
