Subgap dynamics of double quantum dot coupled between superconducting and normal leads

Abstract Dynamical processes induced by the external time-dependent fields can provide valuable insight into the characteristic energy scales of a given physical system. We investigate them here in a nanoscopic heterostructure, consisting of the double quantum dot coupled in series to the supercondu...

description Abstract Dynamical processes induced by the external time-dependent fields can provide valuable insight into the characteristic energy scales of a given physical system.
