CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 4 ]CHAPTER ONERESONANT TUNNELING THROUGH QUANTUM DOT ARRAYS1.1 IntroductionResonant tunneling through Quantum dot arrays is the quantum-mechanical effect of transition through a classically-forbidden energy state.Consider rolling a ball up a hill. If the ball is not given enough velocity, then it will not roll over the hill. This makes sense classically. But in quantum mechanics, objects exhibit wavelike behavior. For a quantum particle moving against a potential hill, the wave function descr ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER TWORESONANT TUNNELING THROUGH QUANTUM DOT ARRAY PROCESSE is incident on a potential barrier of height V0 . Classically the electron is reflected when E< V0, but quantum mechanically there is a certain probability that the electron is transmitted through the barrier.Tunneling is a purely quantum mechanical phenomena which enables electrons to penetrate potential barriers even though it is classically forbidden. The scheme is illustrated in Figure above. Classically the electron would be r ... Continue reading---

CHAPTER FOUR - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER FOURDISCUSSION OF RESULTSFrom the matrices gotten in the previous chapter, it is seen that the diagonal four-by-four matrices are proportional to the partition function Z.In Eq. (2), En, is the energy of many-body state (n, i), the ith of the n-particle states, RL ,®ij are the transition rates between state (n,i) and (n-I,j) by losing or getting one electron through the left (right) lead, and peqn,I is the occupation probability of state (n,i) at equilibriumEquation (2) is basically t ...
