The lowest five energies levels (ELs) and optical absorption coefficient (OAC) of confined donor in a core/shell ellipsoidal quantum dot were theoretically investigated under the impacts of applied electric and magnetic fields. The energy spectrum and wave functions are generated by solving the Schrodinger equation with the finite element method. External magnetic or electric fields and their directions have a considerable effect on the energy levels and dipole matrix element. The computations revealed that changing the directions of the external fields causes a change in the energy levels, implying that OAC fluctuations of these transitions are closely tied to magnetic and electric field angles. We also, demonstrated that changes in light polarization cause blue- or red-shifts in the intersubband OAC spectra, depending on the orientations of the two external fields and the existence or absence of an impurity (k = 0, 1). Furthermore, in all cases, the insertion of a on-center impurity somewhat enhances the OAC peaks and shifts the resonant peaks.
