| Electron tunnelling through two quantum dots in series is theoretically studied. A limit of intermediate coupling between the dots is considered. The non-equilibrium Green function formalism is used to calculate electric current and mean number of electrons accumulated on the dots. Lesser and retarded Green functions are calculated in the Hartree--Fock approximation with the use of the equation of motion method. Current flowing through the system calculated in dependency on gate voltages shows two resonant peaks, each peak with two additional shoulders. I-V characteristics and differential conductance in a resonance and out of resonance cases are calculated and discussed. |
