Magnetic field induced confinement-deconfinement transition in graphene quantum dots.
Massless Dirac particles cannot be confined by an electrostatic potential. This is a problem for making graphene quantum dots but confinement can be achieved with a magnetic field and here general conditions for confined and deconfined states are derived. There is a class of potentials for which the character of the state can be controlled at will. Then a confinement-deconfinement transition oc...
متن کاملMagnetic-field-induced singularities in spin dependent tunneling through InAs quantum dots
Current steps attributed to resonant tunneling through individual InAs quantum dots embedded in a GaAs-AlAs-GaAs tunneling device are investigated experimentally in magnetic fields up to 28 T. The steps evolve into strongly enhanced current peaks in high fields. This can be understood as a fieldinduced Fermi-edge singularity due to the Coulomb interaction between the tunneling electron on the q...
متن کاملPhotovoltaic and rectification currents in quantum dots
We investigate theoretically and experimentally the statistical properties of dc current through an open quantum dot subject to ac excitation of a shape-defining gate. The symmetries of rectification current and photovoltaic current with respect to applied magnetic field are examined. Theory and experiment are found to be in good agreement throughout a broad range of frequency and ac power, ran...
متن کاملQuantum pumping and rectification effects in interacting quantum dots
We derive a general formula for the pumped charge through an interacting quantum dot by the use of the Fisher-Lee relations within the scattering matrix approach. The pumped charge is related to the dot instantaneous Green’s function and to the time-derivative of the tunneling phase. The last contribution gives rise to an effective rectification term with important experimental implications. In...
متن کاملNon-Equilibrium Josephson and Andreev Current through Interacting Quantum Dots
We present a theory of transport through interacting quantum dots coupled to normal and superconducting leads in the limit of weak tunnel coupling. A Josephson current between two superconducting leads, carried by first-order tunnel processes, can be established by non-equilibrium proximity effect. Both Andreev and Josephson current is suppressed for bias voltages below a threshold set by the C...
