Spectral properties of quantum dots influenced by a confining potential model

We obtain the exact energy spectra and corresponding wave functions of the spherical quantum dots for any (n,l) state in the presence of a combination of pseudo-harmonic, Coulomb and linear confining potential terms within the exact analytical iteration method (EAIM). The interaction potential model under consideration is labeled as the Cornell modified-plus-harmonic (CMpH) type which is a correction form to the harmonic, Coulomb and linear confining potential terms.
