Electron transport through a system of two quantum dots connected in series is studied theoretically with the use of non-equilibrium Green function formalism based on the equation of motion method. Each dot is described by the one-level Anderson Hamiltonian and interdot Coulomb interactions in the form of the Hubbard-like term are taken into account. The electric current and occupation numbers are calculated with the use of two different approaches. The results of the methods are compared and discussed in detail. Strong asymmetry of I-V characteristics with respect to bias voltage reversal are obtained when energy levels of the dots are not aligned.

Electron tunnelling through two quantum dots in series is theoretically studied. A limit of intermediate coupling between the dots is considered. The non-equilibrium Green function formalism is used to calculate electric current and mean number of electrons accumulated on the dots. Lesser and retarded Green functions are calculated in the Hartree-Fock approximation with the use of the equation of motion method. Current flowing through the system calculated in dependency on gate voltages shows two resonant peaks, each peak with two additional shoulders. I-V characteristics and differential conductance in a resonance and out of resonance cases are calculated and discussed.

Spin-dependent electron transport through two quantum dots in series attached to ferromagnetic electrodes is analyzed within the framework of the non-equilibrium Green function formalism. Regime of a weak coupling between the dots is investigated. I-V characteristics and tunnel magnetoresistance are calculated and discussed in detail.

Electron transport across two capacitively coupled quantum dots in a parallel geometry is theoretically studied in the non-linear response regime with spin and orbital degrees of freedom taken into account and the Kondo effect induced by on-site and inter-dot Coulomb correlations is analyzed. For a system with each dot symmetrically coupled to a separate set of electrodes a well-defined spin and orbital contributions to zero-bias Kondo resonance are obtained. The Kondo peak splits if spin and/or orbital degeneracies are removed. A suppression of the orbital Kondo anomaly due to orbital asymmetry and channel mixing effects is discussed.

A theoretical approach to a problem of electron transport through double quantum dot systems based on non-equilibrium Green function formalism using equation of motion method is presented. I-V characteristics and differential conductance are calculated and discussed in detail in the intermediate regime with tunneling rate between the quantum dots comparable to coupling constants with external electrodes. Effects of inter-dot Coulomb correlations are studied for various values of interaction parameter U. It is shown that the interaction influences transport properties in a pronounced way and apart from the simple Coulomb blockade additional effects can be obtained. When energy levels of two quantum dots are not aligned, the asymmetry in conductance characteristics is closely related to a voltage dependence of population numbers in both quantum dots. For a one bias polarization electrons are well localized in quantum dots in a low voltage region, whereas for the opposite one they are partly delocalized.

We report on an extensive structural and electrical characterization of undergate dielectric oxide insulators Al_2O_3 and HfO_2 grown by atomic layer deposition. We elaborate the atomic layer deposition growth window for these oxides, finding that the 40-100 nm thick layers of both oxides exhibit fine surface flatness and required amorphous structure. These layers constitute a base for further metallic gate evaporation to complete the metal-insulator-semiconductor structure. Our best devices survive energizing up to ≈ 3 MV/cm at 77 K with the leakage current staying below the state-of-the-art level of 1 nA. At these conditions the displaced charge corresponds to a change of the sheet carrier density of 3 × 10^{13} cm^{-2}, which promises an effective modulation of the micromagnetic properties in diluted ferromagnetic semiconductors.
