We analyze cotunneling transport through two quantum dots in series weakly coupled to external ferromagnetic leads. In the Coulomb blockade regime the electric current flows due to third-order tunneling, while the second-order…

The spin-polarized transport through two-level quantum dots weakly coupled to ferromagnetic leads is considered theoretically in the Coulomb blockade regime. It is assumed that the dot is doubly occupied, so that the current flows due to…

Nonlinear transport through a quantum dot is studied in the limit of weak and strong intra-dot Coulomb interaction. For the latter regime the nonequilibrium self-consistent mean field equations for energies and spectral weights of…

Cotunneling transport through quantum dots weakly coupled to non-collinearly magnetized leads is analyzed theoretically by means of the real-time diagrammatic technique. The electric current, dot occupations, and dot spin are calculated in…

Transport and non-equilibrium magnetization in monolayers of magnetic molecules subject to a bias voltage are considered. We apply a master-equation approach going beyond the sequential-tunneling approximation to study the Coulomb-blockade…

The conductance through a finite quantum dot network is studied as a function of inter-dot coupling. As the coupling is reduced, the system undergoes a transition from the antidot regime to the tight binding limit, where Coulomb resonances…

We study transport through a quantum dot side-coupled to two parallel Luttinger liquid leads in the presence of a Coulombic dot-lead interaction. This geometry enables an exact treatment of the inter-lead Coulomb interactions. We find that…

We investigate sequential tunneling transport through a semiconductor double quantum dot structure by combining a simple microscopic quantum confinement model with a Mott-Hubbard type correlation model. We calculate nonperturbatively the…

We present finite bias transport measurements on a few-electron quantum dot. In the Coulomb blockade regime, strong signatures of inelastic cotunneling occur which can directly be assigned to excited states observed in the non-blockaded…

Current auto- and cross-correlations are studied in a system of two capacitively coupled quantum dots. We are interested in a role of Coulomb interaction in dynamical correlations, which occur outside the Coulomb blockade region (for high…

Spin-dependent electronic transport through a quantum dot has been analyzed theoretically in the cotunneling regime by means of the second-order perturbation theory. The system is described by the impurity Anderson Hamiltonian with…

We report transport measurements on a semiconductor quantum dot with a small number of confined electrons. In the Coulomb blockade regime, conduction is dominated by cotunneling processes. These can be either elastic or inelastic, depending…

The co-tunneling current through a two-level doubly occupied quantum dot weakly coupled to ferromagnetic leads is calculated in the Coulomb blockade regime. It is shown that the dependence of the differrential conductance on applied voltage…

We investigated the peculiarities of non-equilibrium charge configurations in the system of two strongly coupled quantum dots (QDs) weakly connected to the reservoirs in the presence of Coulomb correlations. We revealed that total electron…

The rate-equation approach is used to describe sequential tunneling through a molecular junction in the Coulomb blockade regime. Such device is composed of molecular quantum dot (with discrete energy levels) coupled with two metallic…

We consider the transport spectroscopy of a quantum dot with an even number of electrons at finite bias voltage within the Coulomb blockade diamond. We calculate the tunneling current due to the elastic and inelastic co-tunneling processes…

We study theoretically Coulomb drag in capacitively coupled quantum dots (CQDs) -- a biasdriven dot coupled to an unbiased dot where transport is due to Coulomb mediated energy transfer drag. To this end, we introduce a master-equation…

We develop a linear theory of electron transport for a system of two identical quantum wires in a wide range of the wire length L, unifying both the ballistic and diffusive transport regimes. The microscopic model, involving the interaction…

We present a detailed theoretical investigation of the effect of Coulomb interactions on electron transport through quantum dots and double barrier structures connected to a voltage source via an arbitrary linear impedance. Combining real…

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…
