Effect of inelastic scattering on the average Coulomb-blockade peak height in quantum dots
The average height of the Coulomb-blockade conductance peaks for chaotic elastic scattering is known to increase by a factor of 4/3 upon breaking time-reversal symmetry. We calculate the temperature dependence of this factor in the regime where the inelastic scattering rate G in is greater than the mean tunneling rate Gel , which itself is less than the mean level spacing D . Comparison to rece...
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 کاملCoulomb 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...
