Thermal gating of charge currents with Coulomb coupled quantum dots

Thermal gating of charge currents with Coulomb coupled quantum dots

We have observed thermal gating, i.e. electrostatic gating induced by hot electrons. The effect occurs in a device consisting of two capacitively coupled quantum dots. The double dot system is coupled to a hot electron reservoir on one side (QD1), while the conductance of the second dot (QD2) is mon...
