Description
Recent magneto-transport experiments of holes in InGaAs quantum dots [D. Reuter, P. Kailuweit, A.D. Wieck, U. Zeitler, O. Wibbelhoff, C. Meier, A. Lorke, and J.C. Maan, Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 026808 (2005)] are interpreted by employing a multi-band kp Hamiltonian, which considers the interaction between heavy hole and light hole subbands explicitely. No need of invoking an incomplete energy shell filling is required within this model. The crucial role we ascribe to the heavy hole-light hole interaction is further supported by one-band local-spin-density functional calculations, which show that Coulomb interactions do not induce any incomplete hole shell filling and therefore cannot account for the experimental magnetic field dispersion.
