Magnetic field effects on oscillator strength, dipole polarizability and refractive index changes in spherical quantum dot

Highlights: • The unperturbed wave functions and energy states of spherical quantum dot are obtained from QGA and HFR method. • Magnetic field effects on oscillator strength and dipole polarizability are investigated. • Effects of magnetic field on refractive index changes are also studied. There was one missing point (error) in our article, which was published in Chem. Phys. Lett. 708 (2018) 138–145 and we have corrected this overlooked point. Accordingly, we have made a correction in the sentence just above Eq. (6). We have also supplied the missing expression adjusting the sentence just under Eq. (7). Thus, with minor correction made into the original article, other parts of the article have been harmonized.
