The study of quantum dots (QDs) has unveiled significant potential for revolutionizing next-generation optical and electronic devices; however, a substantial portion of their nonlinear optical properties remains untapped due to the lack of strategic external control. This research focuses on revealing these hidden attributes by exploiting external stimuli such as electric and magnetic fields, pressure, anisotropy parameter, thermal modulation and surrounding dielectric environments. By fine-tuning these external factors, it becomes possible to manipulate the quantum confinement effects, energy spectra and optical responses of QDs, thereby unlocking unprecedented nonlinear optical behaviors. These advancements hold transformative implications for the development of cutting-edge instruments, including photonic sensors, high-precision modulators, and advanced optical communication systems. This work not only bridges existing knowledge gaps but also paves the way for innovative applications of QDs in fields requiring optimized nonlinear responses, ensuring their pivotal role in future technologies.
