摘要
En 中文
Three tunnel-coupled quantum dots in the Coulomb blockade regime act as a molecular rectifier. We have realized this device in a GaAs/Al(0.3)Ga(0.7)As heterostructure containing a two-dimensional electron gas using lithographically patterned gates. The current through two tunnel-coupled dots in series is recorded versus applied voltage. Ratchet behavior is created by a third dot, with one lead, tunnel-coupled to one of the two dots. An electron enters the third dot where it is trapped, producing a jamming effect where no other electron may enter the device. The current-voltage characteristics show rectification and negative resistance arising from charging of the third dot. (C) 2004 American Institute of Physics.
