Varying only one gate voltage instead of two, the obtained conductance curve will show a stochasticlike distribution of resonance peaks at low temperatures. This is usually called "stochastic Coulomb-blockade" (Ref. 14). For a comparison with experimental data see M. Kemerink and L. Molenkamp, Appl. Phys. Lett. 65, 1012 (1994).
