Photovoltaic and Rectification Currents in Quantum Dots
arXiv:cond-mat/0410042 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.71.241309
Abstract
We investigate theoretically and experimentally the statistical properties of dc current through an open quantum dot subject to ac excitation of a shape-defining gate. The symmetries of rectification current and photovoltaic current with respect to applied magnetic field are examined. Theory and experiment are found to be in good agreement throughout a broad range of frequency and ac power, ranging from adiabatic to nonadiabatic regimes.
