One of the most significant research interests in the field of electronics is that on quantum dot, because such materials have electronic properties intermediate between those of bulk semiconductors and those of discrete molecules. Confinement energy is a very important property of quantum dot. In this study, quantum confinement energy of a quantum dot is concluded to be h2/8md2 (d being the diameter of the confinement) and not h2/8ma2 (a being the radius of the confinement), as reported in the available literature. This is in the light of a recent study [1]. This finding should have a significant impact in the understanding of the physics of quantum dot and its technological application.
