dc.descriptionQuantum transport through an open periodic array of up to five dots is investigated in the presence of a magnetic field. The device spectrum exhibits clear features of the band structure of the corresponding one-dimensional artificial crystal which evolves with varying field. A significant magnetically controlled current flow is induced with changes up to many orders of magnitude depending on temperature and material parameters. Our results put forward a simple design for measuring with current technology the magnetic subband formation of quasi one-dimensional Bloch electrons.
