Donarini et al., Nat. Comms 10, 381 (2019)], electronic transport through a carbon nanotube quantum dot was observed to be suppressed by the formation of a quantum-coherent \"dark state\". In this paper we consider theoretically the counting statistics and waiting-time distribution of this dark-state-limited transport. We show that the statistics are characterised by giant super-Poissonian Fano factors and long-tailed waiting-time distributions, both of which are signatures of the bistability and extreme electron bunching caused by the dark state.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-08-06T09:02:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "carbon nanotube quantum dot", "counting statistics", "dark-state transport", "giant super-poissonian fano factors", "waiting-time distribution" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
