Uncertainty-limited turnstile transport in deformed microcavities.

We present both experimental and theoretical evidence for uncertainty-limited turnstile transport in deformed microcavities. As the degree of cavity deformation was increased, a secondary peak gradually emerged in the far-field emission patterns to form a double-peak structure. Our observation can be explained in terms of the interplay between turnstile transport and its suppression by the quantum mechanical uncertainty principle.
