The local conductivity in the channel of a thin-film field-effect transistor is proportional to the charge density induced by the local gate voltage. We show how this determines the frequency- and position-dependence of the charge induced…

We study the energy spectrum for an aperiodic Josephson junction ladder, as a function of frustration. Frustration is brought about by application of a transverse magnetic field, and aperiodicity is imposed by the arrangement of plaquettes…

Using the example of the Davydov soliton - a large acoustic polaron in one dimension - we demonstrate that the electron wave function can be fissioned in two or more long-lived, well-localized and spatially arbitrarily far separated…
