30. For some values of the Zeeman energy in a semiconductor quantum dot see, for instance, R. Hanson, B. Witkamp, L. M. K. Vandersypen, L. H. Willems van Beveren, J. M. Elzerman, and L. P. Kouwenhoven, Phys. Rev. Lett. PRLTAO 0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett.91.196802 91, 196802 (2003).
31. No Coulomb interaction is accounted for in our model. Previous results in the literature have shown that the cases of no electron repulsion in the dot (U=0) and high bias regime (U EF - Ed) give similar results in the sequential-tunneling limit (see Ref.). This, however, is not straightforward extended to the present coherent case (kB T Γ0). So further investigation on the effects of U on the coherent time-dependent transport is desirable. Some results can already be seen, e.g., in Q. F. Sun, J. Wang, and T. H. Lin, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.58.13007 58, 13007 (1998);
