P. Gueret et al., CONFINEMENT AND COULOMB INTERACTIONS IN SCHOTTKY-GATED, LATERALLY CONFINED DOUBLE-BARRIER QUANTUM-WELL HETEROSTRUCTURES, Semiconductor science and technology, 7(3B), 1992, pp. 462-464
The conductance of laterally confined double-barrier quantum well reso
nant tunnelling heterostructures is investigated. The lateral confinem
ent is provided by a Schottky gate and can be varied in a continuous w
ay. Data for dots with nominal diameters in the submicrometre range ar
e reported.
