Single-point potentials with total resonant tunneling

Resonant multilead point-contact tunneling

We analyze a model of resonant point-contact tunneling between multiple Luttinger-liquid leads. The model is a variant of the multichannel Kondo model and can be related to the quantum Brownian motion of a particle on lattices with p flux through each plaquette ~in the three-lead case, it is a honeycomb lattice with p flux!. By comparing the perturbative and instanton gas expansions, we find a ...

Zeeman splitting of single semiconductor impurities in resonant tunneling heterostructures

Zeeman splitting of the ground state of single impurities in the quantum wells of resonant tunneling heterostructures is reported. We determine the absolute magnitude of the effective magnetic spin splitting factor g∗ ⊥ for a single impurity in a 44 Å Al0.27Ga0.73As/GaAs/Al0.27Ga0.73As quantum well to be 0.28 ± 0.02. This system also allows for independent measurement of the electron tunneling ...

Resonant Tunneling throughQuantumDots

Motivated by recent experiments we analyse a new setup of capacitively coupled semiconductor quantum dots. We identify a region where Kondo-assisted tunneling should be observable. We nd an eeective mapping to a single quantum dot with controllable multi-level structure. We study electron transport through strongly coupled quantum dots in the presence of strong Coulomb repulsion and coupling to...

Resonant Tunneling and Resonant Excitation Transfer

Issues involved in the tunneling of deuterons in metal deuterides are considered in relation to experimental claims of anomalies in metal deuterides. From earlier studies, screening is thought to be similar to the case of molecular D2. Resonant tunneling has been advocated in the literature as a possible mechanism to achieve tunneling enhancements. We develop a two-level system for a piecewise ...
