摘要
In this study,we show how a static magnetic field can control photon-induced electron transport through a quantum dot system coupled to a photon cavity.The quantum dot system is connected to two electron reservoirs and exposed to an external perpendicular static magnetic field.The propagation of electrons through the system is thus influenced by the static magnetic and the dynamic photon fields.It is observed that the photon cavity forms photon replica states controlling electron transport in the system.If the photon field has more energy than the cyclotron energy,then the photon field is dominant in the electron transport.Consequently,the electron transport is enhanced due to activation of photon replica states.By contrast,the electron transport is suppressed in the system when the photon energy is smaller than the cyclotron energy.
