  The improved quark mass density- dependent model which includes the coupling
between the quarks and a non-linear scalar field is presented. Numerical
analysis of solutions of the model is performed over a wide range of
parameters. The wave functions of ground state and the lowest one-particle
excited states with even and odd parity are given. The root-mean squared
radius, the magnetic moment and the ratio between the axial-vector and the
vector beta-decay coupling constants of the nucleon are calculated. We found
that the present model is successful to describe the properties of nucleon.
