We studied the dynamics of a pair of single-electron double quantum dots (DQD) under longitudinal and transverse static magnetic fields and time-dependent harmonic modulation of their interaction couplings. We propose to modulate the tunnel…

The dynamics of quantum correlations are central to understanding many physical properties of quantum systems. Here we experimentally study the correlation dynamics via two-particle quantum walks in superconducting Bose-Hubbard qutrit…

Manifestations of quantum coherence in the electronic conductance through nearly closed quantum dots in the Coulomb blockade regime are addressed. We show that quantum coherent tunneling processes explain some puzzling statistical features…

We study the effect of a dot-lead interaction on transport through a quantum dot hybridized to two semi-infinite Luttinger-liquid leads. A bosonization approach is applied to treat the interaction between charge fluctuations on the dot and…

We present a theory of Coulomb blockade oscillations in tunneling through a pair of quantum dots connected by a tunable tunneling junction. The positions and amplitudes of peaks in the linear conductance are directly related, respectively,…

We describe two experiments to study the influence of fluctuations in the electron charge on the transport properties of a quantum dot. First, we scan a device from single- to double quantum-dot behavior by varying the conductance of a…

We propose a new mode of operation of an electron pump consisting of two weakly coupled quantum dots connected to reservoirs. An electron can be transferred within the device at zero bias voltage when it is subjected to electromagnetic…

The electrostatic interaction between two capacitively-coupled metal double-dots is studied at low temperatures. Experiments show that when the Coulomb blockade is lifted by applying appropriate gate biases to both double-dots, the…

The competition between kinetic energy and Coulomb interactions in electronic systems can lead to complex many-body ground states with competing superconducting, charge density wave, and magnetic orders. Here we study the low temperature…

We study the transport properties of a quantum dot driven by either a rotating magnetic field or an ac gate voltage using the Floquet master-equation approach. Both types of ac driving lead to photon-assisted tunneling where quantized…

We theoretically investigate the ground-state properties of a quantum dot defined on the surface of a strong three-dimensional time-reversal invariant topological insulator. Confinement is realized by ferromagnetic barriers and Coulomb…

We obtain the effective action of tunnel-coupled quantum dots, by modeling the system as a Luttinger liquid with multiple barriers. For a double dot system, we find that the resonance conditions for perfect conductance form a hexagon in the…

We have considered a system consisting of two coupled quantum dots containing two electrons, i.e., two quantum dots next to each other with one excess electron each, subjected to an uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the quantum dots…

The quantum dynamics of quasi-one-dimensional ring with varying electron filling factor is investigated in presence of external electric field. The system is modeled within Hubbard Hamiltonian with attractive Coulomb correlation, which…

We consider the production of mobile and nonlocal pairwise spin-entangled electrons from tunneling of a BCS-superconductor (SC) to two normal Fermi liquid leads. The necessary mechanism to separate the two electrons coming from the same…

We show that electrons in coupled quantum dots characterized by high aspect ratios undergo abrupt density rotations when the dots are biased into an asymmetric confinement configuration. Density rotations occur with electron transfer to a…

We investigate optimal control strategies for state to state transitions in a model of a quantum dot molecule containing two active strongly interacting electrons. The Schrodinger equation is solved nonperturbatively in conjunction with…

We report low-temperature transport measurements through a double quantum dot device in a configuration where one of the quantum dots is coupled directly to the source and drain electrodes, and a second (side-coupled) quantum dot interacts…

We obtain and analyze the effect of electron-electron Coulomb interaction on the time dependent current flowing through a mesoscopic system connected to biased semi-infinite leads. We assume the contact is gradually switched on in time and…

We investigate electron transport in two quantum circuits with mutual Coulomb interaction. The first circuit is a double quantum dot connected to two electron reservoirs, while the second one is a quantum point contact in the weak tunneling…
