Nature of eigenstates in a mesoscopic ring coupled to a side branch

Condensed Matter 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

We formalize the parity effect of a multichannel ring coupled to a side branch using the tight binding model. We find that the tight binding model gives slightly different result from the continuum model. We also show that some states of the system can be nonmagnetic. In the multichannel ring coupled to a side branch, the persistent current in the ring does not change sign, over gigantic fluctuations in N (the number of particles in the ring).
