Steering of a Bosonic Mode with a Double Quantum Dot

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2009-11-10 v1 Quantum Physics

Abstract

We investigate the transport and coherence properties of a double quantum dot coupled to a single damped boson mode. Our numerically results reveal how the properties of the boson distribution can be steered by altering parameters of the electronic system such as the energy difference between the dots. Quadrature amplitude variances and the Wigner function are employed to illustrate how the state of the boson mode can be controlled by a stationary electron current through the dots.
