Coulomb-Modified Fano Resonance in a One-Lead Quantum Dot
arXiv:cond-mat/0312571 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.93.106803
Abstract
We investigate a tunable Fano interferometer consisting of a quantum dot coupled via tunneling to a one-dimensional channel. In addition to Fano resonance, the channel shows strong Coulomb response to the dot, with a single electron modulating channel conductance by factors of up to 100. Where these effects coexist, lineshapes with up to four extrema are found. A model of Coulomb-modified Fano resonance is developed and gives excellent agreement with experiment.
