We study the splitting between the right-hand and left-hand circularly polarized luminescence lines in a quantum dot under relatively weak confinement regime and resonant high-power excitation. When the dot is populated with an even number of electron-hole pairs (biexciton and higher excitations), the splitting measures basically the Zeeman energy. However, in the odd number of pairs case, we have, in addition to the Zeeman and Overhauser shifts, a contribution to the splitting coming from Coulomb interactions. This contribution is of the order of a few meV, and shows distinct signatures of shell-filling in the quantum dot.

We examine the impact of quantum confinement on the interaction potential between two charges in two-dimensional semiconductor nanosheets in solution. The resulting effective potential depends on two length scales, namely the thickness $d$ and an eme rgent length scale $d^* equiv epsilon d / epsilon_{text{sol}}$, where $epsilon$ is the permittivity of the nanosheet and $epsilon_{text{sol}}$ is the permittivity of the solvent. In particular, quantum confinement, and not electrostatics, is responsible for the logarithmic behavior of the effective potential for separations smaller than $d$, instead of the one-over-distance bulk Coulomb interaction. Finally, we corroborate that the exciton binding energy also depends on the two-dimensional exciton Bohr radius $a_0$ in addition to the length scales $d$ and $d^*$ and analyze the consequences of this dependence.
In the present work, we theoretically study the nonlinear regime of charge transport through a quantum dot coupled to the source and drain reservoirs. The investigation is carried out using a nonequilibrium Greens functions formalism beyond the Hartr ee-Fock approximation. Employed approximations for the relevant Greens functions allow to trace a transition from Coulomb blockade regime to Kondo regime in the thermoelectric transport. Effects arising when electrons move in response to thermal gradient applied across the system are discussed, including experimentally observed thermovoltage zeros.
A residual disorder in the gate system is the main problem on the way to create artificial graphene based on two-dimensional electron gas. The disorder can be significantly screened/reduced due to the many-body effects. To analyse the screening/disor der problem we consider AlGaAs/GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure with two metallic gates. We demonstrate that the design least susceptible to the disorder corresponds to the weak coupling regime (opposite to tight binding) which is realised via system of quantum anti-dots. The most relevant type of disorder is the area disorder which is a random variation of areas of quantum anti-dots. The area disorder results in formation of puddles. Other types of disorder, the position disorder and the shape disorder, are practically irrelevant. The formation/importance of puddles dramatically depends on parameters of the nanopatterned heterostructure. A variation of the parameters by 20--30% can change the relative amplitude of puddles by orders of magnitude. Based on this analysis we formulate criteria for the acceptable design of the heterostructure aimed at creation of the artificial graphene.
It is known that there are lattice models in which non-interacting particles get dynamically localized when periodic $delta$-function kicks are applied with a particular strength. We use both numerical and analytical methods to study the effects of i nteractions in three different models in one dimension. The systems we have considered include spinless fermions with interactions between nearest-neighbor sites, the Hubbard model of spin-1/2 fermions, and the Bose Hubbard model with on-site interactions. We derive effective Floquet Hamiltonians up to second order in the time period of kicking. Using these we show that interactions can give rise to a variety of interesting results such as two-body bound states in all three models and dispersionless many-body bound states for spinless fermions and bosons. We substantiate these results by exact diagonalization and stroboscopic time evolution of systems with a finite number of particles. We derive a low-energy pseudo-spin-1/2 limit of the Bose Hubbard system in the thermodynamic limit and show that a special case of this has an exponentially large number of ground states. Finally we study the effect of changing the strength of the $delta$-function kicks slightly away from perfect dynamical localization; we find that a single particle remains dynamically localized for a long time after which it moves ballistically.
We have achieved the few-electron regime in InAs nanowire double quantum dots. Spin blockade is observed for the first two half-filled orbitals, where the transport cycle is interrupted by forbidden transitions between triplet and singlet states. Par tial lifting of spin blockade is explained by spin-orbit and hyperfine mechanisms that enable triplet to singlet transitions. The measurements over a wide range of interdot coupling and tunneling rates to the leads are well reproduced by a simple transport model. This allows us to separate and quantify the contributions of the spin-orbit and hyperfine interactions.
