Magnetic field induced effects in the high source-drain bias current of weakly coupled vertical quantum dot molecules

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2009-11-13 v1

Abstract

We report on the basic properties of recently observed magnetic field resonance, induced time dependent oscillation, and hysteresis effects in the current flowing through two weakly coupled vertical quantum dots at high source-drain bias (up to a few tens of mV). These effects bare some similarity to those reported in the N=2 spin-blockade regime, usually for weak in-plane magnetic field, of quantum dot molecules and attributed to hyperfine coupling, except here the measurements are conducted outside of the spin-blockade regime and the out-of-plane magnetic field is up to ~6 T.
