Magnetopolaronic effects in electron transport through a single-level vibrating quantum dot
arXiv:1211.2348 · doi:10.1063/1.3674185
Abstract
Magneto-polaronic effects are considered in electron transport through a single-level vibrating quantum dot subjected to a transverse (to the current flow) magnetic field. It is shown that the effects are most pronounced in the regime of sequential electron tunneling, where a polaronic blockade of the current at low temperatures and an anomalous temperature dependence of the magnetoconductance are predicted. In contrast, for resonant tunneling of polarons the peak conductance is not affected by the magnetic field.
