Spontaneous emission of phonons by coupled quantum dots

Abstract

We find an interference effect for electron-phonon interactions in coupled semiconductor quantum dots that can dominate the nonlinear transport properties even for temperatures close to zero. The intradot electron tunnel process leads to a `shake up' of the phonon system and is dominated by a double-slit-like interference effect of spontaneously emitted phonons. The effect is closely related to subradiance of photons (Dicke effect) in a laser-trapped two-ion system and explains the oscillations in the nonlinear current-voltage characteristics of coupled dots observed recently.
