Disappearance of quantum chaos in coupled chaotic quantum dots

Statistical properties of the single electron levels confined in the semiconductor (InAs/GaAs, Si/SiO₂) double quantum dots (DQDs) are considered. We demonstrate that in the electronically coupled chaotic quantum dots the chaos with its level repulsion disappears and the nearest neighbor level statistics becomes Poissonian. This result is discussed in the light of the recently predicted “huge conductance peak” by R.S. Whitney et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102 (2009) 186802] in the mirror symmetric DQDs.
