Using time-resolved transport spectroscopy, we investigate the influence of charge-tunable InAs quantum dots (QDs) on the conductance of a nearby two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG). Loading successively electrons into the self-assembled QDs decreases the carrier concentration and mobility in the 2DEG. We are able to quantify how these transport properties change for each additional charge in the s- or p-shell. It is found that mobility and carrier concentration contribute equally to the overall change in conductance.
