"To manipulate an electron confined by gate-defined quantum dot, it is essential to control the number of electron i.e. the chemical potential of each quantum dot and the tunnel coupling among quantum dots. The charge stability diagram (CSD) represents electrostatic characteristics of such a quantum dot system for a give charge configuration which suggests the operation point and the work window for further experiements. However, the CSD depends on the sweep direction of gate voltages thus a charge state hysteresis in quantum dots has been observed and inverstigated. [1]\n",
"To manipulate an electron confined in a gate-defined quantum dot, it is essential to control the number of electrons i.e. the chemical potential of each quantum dot and the tunnel coupling among quantum dots. The charge stability diagram (CSD) shows changes in the electron occupation of the system in response to changes in applied gate voltages. This information can be used to extract the operation point for further experiments. For an infinitely slow gate sweep and in absence of charging effects the CSD shows the charge occupation of the ground state. In the real world however, the CSD can depend on the sweep direction of gate voltages and a charge state hysteresis in quantum dots has been observed and investigated. [1]\n",
