Popis: In a recent paper Hao et al. [Phys. Rev. B 80, 035329 (2009)] reported variational calculations of energy spectrum for shallow hydrogenic donor in the structure of semiconductor/insulator/metal with a new type of trial wave function. They also performed calculations for semiconductor/insulator system and found that their method gives energy values lower than those obtained by MacMillen and Landman [Phys. Rev. B 29, 4524 (1984)]. As follows from these results MacMillen and Landman have got much larger errors in energy values than they expected. However we confirm that the theoretical approach suggested by MacMillen and Landman gives rather accurate energy values for the system of hydrogenic donor near the interface between semiconductor and insulator.
