 Resonant antidot backscattering

A closed antidot edge orbit can tunnel-couple extended channels on opposite edges. When its electrochemical energy aligns with the reservoirs, resonant backscattering reduces conductance from an otherwise transmitting integer plateau. Different connectivity can instead add a transmission path and produce peaks. Gate voltage changes both the orbit and tunnel couplings; charging and spin alter the simplest fixed-area Aharonov-Bohm resonance sequence.
