Abstract
Theoretical studies of the coherent electronic transport in a system of coupled quantum wires show that switching on the conducting channel in one wire can be manifested in the other coupled wires. Interference processes and electronic correlations are taken into account in our studies on the same footing. The conductance changes depend on the interference conditions of a transmitted wave with that one reflected from the wires that indirectly influence the transport. We show that electronic correlations lead to a dynamical Coulomb blockade effect, which changes the conductance response quantitatively but its shape is still kept the same. Our results are discussed in correspondence with an experiment recently performed by Morimoto et al. [Appl. Phys. Lett. 82, 3952 (2003)] on a system of coupled quantum wires.
