We present lateral transport measurements on strongly, vertically coupled
quantum dots formed in separate quantum wells in a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure.
Coulomb oscillations are observed forming a honeycomb lattice consistent with
two strongly coupled dots. When the tunnel barriers in the upper well are
reduced we observe the Fano effect due to the interfering paths through a
resonant state in the lower well and a continuum state in the upper well. In
both regimes an in plane magnetic field reduces the coupling between the wells
when the magnetic length is comparable to the center to center separation of
the wells. We also observe the Kondo effect which allows the spin states of the
double dot system to be probed.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
