Abstract

We consider the capture and ionization of an electron in quantum wells and wires by a shallow donor impurity due to the interaction with acoustical phonons. In the caseof phonon wavelengthsmuch smaller than the width of wells or wires, L, the transition rates are proportional to ∈^-5(n_∈+1/2±1/2)L^-6, where ∈ is the transferred energy and n_∈ is the phonon occupation number.
