摘要
Tunneling through a system with two discrete electron levels coupled by electron-phonon interaction is considered. The interplay between elastic and inelastic tunneling channels is analyzed for a strong electron-phonon coupling in the resonant case. It is shown that the intensity and the width of peaks in tunneling conductivity are strongly influenced by nonequilibrium effects.
