Abstract We study the magneto-transport in vertical quantum dots boththeoretically and experimentally. We focus our attention onthe non-linear transport regime. We demonstrate that the peakamplitudes in the I–V characteristics show a dramaticallydifferent behaviour as a function of the magnetic field,depending on the value of the angular momentum of the dotstate through which tunnelling occurs. The investigationallows us to probe details of the quantum dot wavefunctionsand to distinguish tunnelling through localised states relatedto impurities or to quantum dots.
