✦ Synopsis


We have observed conductance fluctuations due to electron interference in a split-gate quantum dot, fabricated in the two-dimensional electron gas of a GaAs/Al x Ga 1-x As heterojunction. We have determined the phase breaking time of electrons by two independent analyses, using the correlation field and the amplitude of the fluctuations. Phase breaking times obtained by these distinct approaches are found to differ from each other by a factor of six.

Magnetic characterization of a quantum dot array was carried out to extract the phasebreaking time as a function of temperature and current. These measurements indicate a saturation of the phase-breaking time at low temperature and low current. The phase-breaking time varies as 1/T for temperatures

We study the effect of electron-electron interactions between several electrons in a quantum dot with a tapered constriction by monitoring the behavior of the position of the absolute charge density maximum, Z max , of each occupied state under DC electric fields. States of this system are localized
