Spin-bias driven electron properties of a triple-quantum-dot ring

Electron transport through a three-electrode triple-quantum-dot ring with the source electrode of spin-dependent splitting of chemical potentials (spin bias) is theoretically investigated. We find clear charge and spin currents in the drain electrodes driven by the spin bias, despite the absence of charge bias between the source and drain electrodes, and their directions and amplitudes can be adjusted by altering the structure parameters or magnetic field. The distinct characteristics of spin-bias driven persistent charge and spin currents in the ring are also shown. When an appropriate charge bias is applied, the single-spin electron motion can be achieved in this structure.

Coulomb-modified Fano interference in a double quantum dot Aharonov-Bohm ring

In this paper, the Coulomb-induced changes of Fano interference in electronic transport through a double quantum dot Aharonov-Bohm ring are discussed. It is found that the Coulomb interaction in the quantum dot in the reference channel can remarkably modify the Fano interference, including the increase or decrease of the symmetry of the Fano lineshape, as well as the inversion of the Fano lineshape, which is dependent on the appropriate strength of the Coulomb interaction. %But the nonzero Coulomb interaction %only leads to the emergence of two-group Fano lineshapes. When both the quantum dot levels are adjustable, the Coulomb-induced splitting of the nonresonant channel leads to the destruction of the Fano interference; whereas two blurry Fano lineshapes may appear in the conductance spectra when the many-body effect in the dot of the resonant channel is also considered. Interestingly, in the absence of magnetic field, when the different-strength electron interactions make one pair of levels of the dots in different channels the same, the corresponding resonant state keeps vacuum despite the adjustment of quantum dot levels.
