Abstract The method of few-body physics is applied to the calculation of the low-lying states of the exciton of a GaAs disk-like quantum dot with a parabolic potential. The binding energy of the exciton in quantum disks is calculated for two different thicknesses as a function of the disk size. The four lowest exciton states dependent on the disk thickness are investigated.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
