Interaction-induced adiabatic non-linear transport

Abstract

We calculate the time-dependent non-linear transport current through an interacting quantum dot in the single-electron tunneling regime (SET). We show that an additional dc current is generated by the electron-electron interaction by adiabatic out-of-phase modulation of the gate and bias voltage. This current can arise only when two SET resonance conditions are simultaneously satisfied. We propose an adiabatic transport spectroscopy where lock-in measurement of a "time-averaged stability diagram" probes interactions, tunnel asymmetries and changes in the ground state spin-degeneracy.
