This presentation provides a very high level software overview of NEMO1D.

Learning Objectives:
This lecture provides a very high level overview of quantum dots. The main issues and questions that are addressed are:

1. Length scale of quantum dots
2. Definition of a quantum dot
3. Quantum dot examples and Applications
4. Single electronics
5. Need for quantum dot modeling
6. Model requirements – what are the physical effects that need to be included?
7. Overview of some of the existing theories and models
8. Tight binding approach
