Abstract:
Employing the non-equilibrium Green's function technique, we have obtained the formula for dc current of two one-dimensional multi-quantum dot arrays, which couple to each other via tunneling coupling between two quantum dots connected to four leads, respectively. The retarded Green's function is a staircase type, terminating at the four leads. Furthermore, the four quantum dots case is demonstrated. The influence of inter-dot coupling strength and quantum dot energy level on the transmission probability for TL, TM and TN branches is investigated. A non-resonant band is observed. By adjusting energy levels of quantum dots, a resonance emerges in the region of the non-resonance band. The system can be used as a quantum switch. © 2018 World Scientific Publishing Company.
