The ground state electronic configuration of semiconductor spherical quantum dots populated with
different numbers of excess electrons, for different radii and dielectric constants of the embedding
medium is calculated and the corresponding phase diagram drawn. To this end, an extension of the
spin density functional theory to study systems with variable effective mass and dielectric constant
is employed. Our results show that high/low spin configurations can be switched by appropriate
changes in the quantum dot embedding environment and suggest the use of the quantum dot spin as
a sensor of the dielectric response of media [-]
