Mesoscopic quantum circuit theory to the persistent current and Coulomb blockade

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2008-02-03 v1

Abstract

The quantum theory for mesoscopic electric circuit is briefly described. The uncertainty relation for electric charge and current modifies the tranditional Heisenberg uncertainty relation. The mesoscopic ring is regarded as a pure L-design, and the persistent current is obtained explicitly. The Coulomb blockade phenomenon appears when applying to the pure C-design.
