Time-dependent resonant tunneling via two discrete states

TL;DR

This paper theoretically explores how applying irradiation at specific frequencies can control dc transport in a system with two discrete states, revealing observable resonant phenomena.

Contribution

It introduces a theoretical model for time-dependent resonant tunneling via two discrete states and predicts experimentally observable resonant effects controlled by irradiation frequency.

Findings

dc transport can be controlled by irradiation frequency

resonant phenomena are predicted and should be observable

system behavior depends on matching irradiation frequency to energy difference

Abstract

We theoretically investigate time-dependent resonant tunneling via two discrete states in an experimentally relevant setup. Our results show that the dc transport through the system can be controled by applying irradiation with a frequency which matches the energy difference between the discrete states. We predict resonant phenomena which should be easily observable in experiments.
