Coulomb blockade in Quantum Dots
In the resonant tunnelling diode we have treated electrons as non interacting particles. We have discussed their wave nature, which led to quantized energy states in small and coherent cavities. Qualitatively this is due to the requirement that an integer number of Fermi wavelengths has to fit between the barriers. Here we begin in the opposite limit by neglecting space quantization effects in ...
متن کاملCoulomb Blockade Fluctuations in Disordered Quantum Dots
We discuss some recent results on the statistics of the Coulomb Blockade in disordered quantum dots containing spinless interacting fermions using the self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation. We concentrate on the regime rs > ∼ 1, with finite dimensionless conductance g. We present significantly different results for the cases of a Coulomb and a nearest-neighbour bare interaction. We show th...
متن کاملSpectral scrambling in Coulomb - blockade quantum dots
We estimate the fluctuation width of an energy level as a function of the number of electrons added to a Coulomb-blockade quantum dot. A microscopic calculation in the limit of Koopmans’ theorem predicts that the standard deviation of these fluctuations is linear in the number of added electrons, in agreement with a parametric random-matrix approach. We estimate the number of electrons it takes...
متن کاملElastic and inelastic scattering in quantum dots in the Coulomb-blockade regime.
Starting from a rate-equation model proposed by Beenakker, we calculate current-voltage characteristics for symmetric and asymmetric vertical quantum dots. We include up to 26 electrons and show how single-electron charge interaction, inelastic scattering, and nonadiabatic subband mixing can enhance the valley current signi6cantly by opening new conduction channels. Subband mixing is the domina...
متن کاملAdiabatic charge pumping through quantum dots in the Coulomb blockade regime
We investigate the influence of the Coulomb interaction on the adiabatic pumping current through a quantum dot. Using nonequilibrium Green’s functions techniques, we derive a general expression for the current based on the instantaneous Green’s function of the dot. We apply this formula to study the dependence of the charge pumped per cycle on the time-dependent pumping potentials. Motivated by...
