Unlike conventional sidebands, these absorption sidebands occur in a regime where the current is nominally Coulomb blockaded. Here, we develop a detailed and analytical theory of absorption sidebands, including current-voltage characteristics as well as shot noise. We discuss the relation of our predictions to recent experiments.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2007-09-28T09:06:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "73.23.Hk", "73.63.-b", "85.65.+h" ], "keywords": [ "coulomb blockade regime", "vibrational absorption sidebands", "single-molecule transistors", "current-driven vibrational non-equilibrium induces vibrational", "vibrational non-equilibrium induces vibrational sidebands" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2008, "month": "Mar", "volume": 77, "number": 12, "pages": 125306 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008PhRvB..77l5306L" } } }
