The stationary state is determined by the balance between the heating of the dot electrons by the perturbation and cooling. We analyze two cooling mechanisms: electron exchange with the cold contacts and emission of phonons. Together with the usual linear Ohmic heating of the dot electrons we consider possible effects of dynamic localization. The combination of the abovementioned factors may result in a drastic change of the shape of the Coulomb blockade peak with respect to the usual equilibrium one.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2004-06-22T06:32:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum dot", "ac pumping", "dot electrons", "external periodic perturbation", "coulomb blockade peak" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
