The effect of homogeneous electric field on the energy spectrum, wave functions of electron and oscillator strengths of intra-band quantum transitions in a double cylindrical quantum ring (GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs) is studied within the approximations of effective mass and rectangular potentials. The calculations are performed using the method of expansion of quasiparticle wave function over a complete set of cylindrical wave functions obtained as exact solutions of Schrödinger equation for an electron in a nanostructure without electric field. It is shown that the electric field essentially affects the electron localization in the rings of a nanostructure. Herein, the electron energies and oscillator strengths of intra-band quantum transitions non-monotonously depend on the intensity of electric field.
