Query: Formation and control of electron molecules in artificial atoms:
  Impurity and magnetic-field effects   Interelectron interactions and correlations in quantum dots can lead to
spontaneous symmetry breaking of the self-consistent mean field resulting in
formation of Wigner molecules. With the use of spin-and-space unrestricted
Hartree-Fock (sS-UHF) calculations, such symmetry breaking is discussed for
field-free conditions, as well as under the influence of an external magnetic
field. Using as paradigms impurity-doped (as well as the limiting case of
clean) two-electron quantum dots (which are analogs to helium-like atoms), it
is shown that the interplay between the interelectron repulsion and the
electronic zero-point kinetic energy leads, for a broad range of impurity
parameters, to formation of a singlet ground-state electron molecule,
reminiscent of the molecular picture of doubly-excited helium. Comparative
analysis of the conditional probability distributions for the sS-UHF and the
exact solutions for the ground state of two interacting electrons in a clean
parabolic quantum dot reveals that both of them describe formation of an
electron molecule with similar characteristics. The self-consistent field
associated with the triplet excited state of the two-electron quantum dot
(clean as well as impurity-doped) exhibits symmetry breaking of the Jahn-Teller
type, similar to that underlying formation of nonspherical open-shell nuclei
and metal clusters. Furthermore, impurity and/or magnetic-field effects can be
used to achieve controlled manipulation of the formation and pinning of the
discrete orientations of the Wigner molecules. Impurity effects are futher
illustrated for the case of a quantum dot with more than two electrons.
