Phys. Rev. B 62, 15352–15355 (2000)Quantum ac transport through coupled quantum dotsReceived 29 March 2000; published in the issue dated 15 December 2000 We present an analysis of time-dependent transport through coupled double quantum dots. Analytical formulas are derived for the current-voltage characteristics of the time-dependent photo-assisted tunneling. The resonance features are observable in both the amplitude and the phase shift of an ac current. We also point out the importance of self-consistent calculation in the internal potential for constructing a gauge-invariant quantum transport theory. © 2000 The American Physical Society URL:
