Mesoscopic conductance fluctuations in a coupled quantum dot system
arXiv:cond-mat/0512191 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.74.041311
Abstract
We study the transport properties of an Aharonov-Bohm ring containing two quantum dots. One of the dots has well-separated resonant levels, while the other is chaotic and is treated by random matrix theory. We find that the conductance through the ring is significantly affected by mesoscopic fluctuations. The Breit-Wigner resonant peak is changed to an antiresonance by increasing the ratio of the level broadening to the mean level spacing of the random dot. The asymmetric Fano form turns into a symmetric one and the resonant peak can be controlled by magnetic flux. The conductance distribution function clearly shows the influence of strong fluctuations.
