Abstract:

The electronic conductance at zero temperature through a quantum wire with side-connected asymmetric quantum ring (as a scatter system) is theoretically studied using the non-interacting Hamiltonian Anderson tunneling method. In this paper we concentrate on the configuration of the quantum dot rings. We show that the asymmetric structure of QD-scatter system strongly influences the amplitude and spectrum of electron transport characteristics through a quantum wire. We find that the unbalanced number of quantum dots in two rings rather increases the anti-resonant in quantum wire conductance than balances the number of quantum dots rings. Also changing the distance between quantum dot rings influences the amplitude of resonant peaks in the QW conductance spectrum. The proposed asymmetric quantum ring scatter system idea in this paper opens a new insight on the designing of nano structure quantum wire for a given electrical conductance.

Quantum Theory of Electron Transport through Single-level Quantum Dot

Abstract. A new approach in the quantum theory of few-electron nanoelectronic devices – the S-matrix approach – is presented in a simple example: a single-electron transistor consisting of a single-level quantum dot connected with two metallic leads through the corresponding potential barriers. The electron transport through the quantum dot due to the electron tunneling between the dot and the ...

Electron transport through a quantum dot assisted by cavity photons.

We investigate transient transport of electrons through a single quantum dot controlled by a plunger gate. The dot is embedded in a finite wire with length Lx assumed to lie along the x-direction with a parabolic confinement in the y-direction. The quantum wire, originally with hard-wall confinement at its ends, ±Lx/2, is weakly coupled at t = 0 to left and right leads acting as external electr...

Transport through a quantum wire with a side quantum-dot array

A noninteracting quantum-dot array side-coupled to a quantum wire is studied. Transport through the quantum wire is investigated by using a noninteracting Anderson tunneling Hamiltonian. The conductance at zero temperature develops an oscillating band with resonances and antiresonances due to constructive and destructive interference in the ballistic channel, respectively. Moreover, we have fou...
