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 an...

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...

We propose a quantum computer structure based on coupled asymmetric single-electron quantum dots. Adjacent dots are strongly coupled by means of electric dipole-dipole interactions enabling rapid computation rates. Further, the asymmetric structures can be tailored for a long coherence time. The result maximizes the number of computation cycles prior to loss of coherence.

Background: Quantum dots are commonly composed of cadmium contained semiconductors. Cadmium is potentially hazardous but toxicity of such quantum dots is not yet systematically investigated. On the other hand, in vitro studies have shown almost complete control of CdSe induced cytotoxicity by ZnS coverage. Toxicity of CdSe quantum dots and controlling this toxicity by ZnS coverage in immature m...

objective(s):  medicinal benefits of quantum dots have been proved in recent years but there is little known about their toxicity especially in vivo toxicity. in order to use quantum dots in medical applications, studies ontheir in vivo toxicity is important.  materials and methods:cdse:zns quantum dots were injected in 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg doses to male mice10 days later, mice were sacrificed ...
