Theoretical and experimental investigations of Coulomb blockade in   coupled quantum dot systems
  Two strongly coupled quantum dots are theoretically and experimentally investigated. In the conductance measurements of a GaAs based low-dimensional system additional features to the Coulomb blockade have been detected at low temperatures. These regions of finite conductivity are compared with theoretical investigations of a strongly coupled quantum dot system and good agreement of the theoretical and the experimental results has been found.
