Our results predict the existence of previously unnoticed structure within Coulomb-blockade diamonds.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-07-19T13:11:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "73.23.Hk", "73.63.Kv" ], "keywords": [ "electron pair resonance", "coulomb blockade", "large bias voltages", "study many-body corrections", "ionization resonance peaks" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2008, "month": "Feb", "volume": 100, "number": 5, "pages": "056809" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008PhRvL.100e6809S" } } }
