Charge detection of a quantum dot under different tunneling barrier symmetries and bias voltages
arXiv:2105.11162 · doi:10.1039/D2NR03459J
Abstract
We report on the realization of a coupled quantum dot (QD) system containing two single QDs made in two adjacent InAs nanowires. One QD (sensor QD) is used as a charge sensor to detect the charge state transition in the other QD (target QD). We investigate the effect of the tunneling barrier asymmetry of the target QD on the detection visibility of charge state transition in the target QD. The charge stability diagrams of the target QD under different configurations of barrier-gate voltages are simultaneously measured via the direct signals of electron transport through the target QD and via the detection signals of charge state transition in the target QD from the sensor QD. We find that the complete Coulomb diamond boundaries of the target QD and the transport processes involving the excited states in the target QD can be observed in the transconductance signals of the sensor QD only when the tunneling barriers of the target QD are nearly symmetric. These phenomena are explained by analyzing the effect of the ratio of the two tunneling rates on the electron transport processes through the target QD. Our results imply that it is important to consider the symmetry of the tunneling couplings when constructing a charge sensor integrated QD device or qubit.
