Article Description

Quantum fluctuations in the conductance produced by the variation of the Fermi energy or a magnetic field are analyzed to investigate the electronic coupling in linear arrays of quantum cavities. The magnetic-field-induced fluctuations exhibit a behavior which implies an incomplete coupling among the quantum cavities. This forms striking contrast to the nearly complete coupling indicated by the energy-induced fluctuations. We examine the dependencies of these coupling coefficients estimated from the conductance fluctuations on various structural parameters. The contradiction between the two coupling coefficients is attributed to the existence of a large number of silent orbits which do not interact with the magnetic field. We also explore the consequences of the series addition of the cavities that are manifested in the underlying classical dynamics. © 2003 The American Physical Society.
