Abstract
Tunneling currents of a quantum dot induced by pulsed fields are investigated theoretically using time-dependent tunneling rates. Taking into account nonadiabatic effects, we present simple analytic expressions for tunneling currents, which can be used to study the evolution of the occupation probabilities in the quantum dot as well as extract system parameters governing tunneling measurements.
