Scaling laws for random walks in long-range correlated disordered media
We study the scaling laws of diffusion in two-dimensional media with
long-range correlated disorder through exact enumeration of random walks. The
disordered medium is modelled by percolation clusters with correlations
decaying with the distance as a power law, , generated with the
improved Fourier filtering method. To characterize this type of disorder, we
determine the percolation threshold by investigating
cluster-wrapping probabilities. At , we estimate the
(sub-diffusive) walk dimension for different correlation
exponents . Above , our results suggest a normal random walk
behavior for weak correlations, whereas anomalous diffusion cannot be ruled out
in the strongly correlated case, i.e., for small .Comment: 11 pages, 6 figure
Non-invasive detection of charge-rearrangement in a quantum dot in high magnetic fields
We demonstrate electron redistribution caused by magnetic field on a single
quantum dot measured by means of a quantum point contact as non-invasive
detector. Our device which is fabricated by local anodic oxidation allows to
control independently the quantum point contact and all tunnelling barriers of
the quantum dot. Thus we are able to measure both the change of the quantum dot
charge and also changes of the electron configuration at constant number of
electrons on the quantum dot. We use these features to exploit the quantum dot
in a high magnetic field where transport through the quantum dot displays the
effects of Landau shells and spin blockade. We confirm the internal
rearrangement of electrons as function of the magnetic field for a fixed number
of electrons on the quantum dot.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
