Renormalization of the Coulomb interaction in layered metals results in a strongly anisotropic plasma mode with low frequencies for small components of wave vector in the in-plane direction. Interaction of electrons with this mode was found…
We study a two-band Hubbard model using the dynamical mean-field theory combined with the exact diagonalization method. At the electron density $n=2$, a transition from a band-insulator to a correlated semimetal occurs when the on-site…
Lateral charge transport of a two-dimensional (2D) electronic system can be much influenced by feeding a current into another closely spaced 2D conductor, known as the Coulomb drag phenomenon -- a powerful probe of electron-electron…
We develop a theory of the conductance of a quantum dot connected to two leads by single-mode quantum point contacts. If the contacts are in the regime of perfect transmission, the conductance shows no Coulomb blockade oscillations as a…
We study Coulomb drag between an active layer with a clean electron liquid and a passive layer with a pinned electron lattice in the regime of fast intralayer equilibration. Such a two-fluid system offers an experimentally realizable way to…
In a recent experiment, Milliken {\em et al.} demonstrated possible evidence for a Luttinger liquid through measurements of the tunneling conductance between edge states in the $\nu=1/3$ quantum Hall plateau. However, at low temperatures, a…
Coulomb drag is a powerful tool to study interactions in coupled low-dimensional systems. Historically, Coulomb drag has been attributed to a frictional force arising from momentum transfer whose direction is dictated by the current flow.…
We study Coulomb drag in a system consisting of a carbon nanotube (CNT) and monolayer graphene. Within the Fermi liquid theory we calculate the drag resistivity and find that the dimensional mismatch of the system components leads to a…
We show theoretically that the Coulomb drag rate between two parallel quasi-two-dimensional electron gases is substantially enhanced by the coupled acoustic and optic plasmon modes of the system at temperatures $T \gtrsim 0.2T_F$ (where…
The power-law increase of the conductivity with temperature in the nominally insulating regime, recently reported for the dilute two-dimensional holes [cond-mat/0603053], is found to systematically vary with the carrier density. Based on…

Electron interactions in and between wires become increasingly complex and important as circuits are scaled to nanometre sizes, or employ reduced-dimensional conductors like carbon nanotubes, nanowires and gated high mobility 2D electron…
We report experimental data and theoretical analysis of Coulomb drag between two closely positioned graphene monolayers in weak magnetic field. Close enough to the neutrality point, coexistence of electrons and holes in each layer leads to…
We consider mesoscopic fluctuations of the Coulomb drag coefficient $\rho_D$ in the system of two separated two-dimensional electron gases. It is shown that at low temperatures sample to sample fluctuations of $\rho_D$ exceed its ensemble…
We consider resonant transmission through a finite-length quantum wire connected to leads via finite transparency junctions. The coherent electron transport is strongly modified by the Coulomb interaction. The low-temperature…
Kinematic constraint arising in the case of superconducting pairing with large momentum results in a cutoff of the screened Coulomb potential excluding large momentum transfers. This leads to a pairing potential oscillating in the real…
We investigated size effects on thermoelectricity in thin films of a strongly correlated layered cobaltate. At room temperature, the thermopower is independent of thickness down to 6 nm. This unusual behavior is inconsistent with the…
A systematic study of the properties of particle and charge correlation functions in the two-dimensional Coulomb gas confined to a one-dimensional domain is undertaken. Two versions of this system are considered: one in which the positive…
A low-temperature upturn of the Coulomb drag resistivity measured in an undoped electron-hole bilayer (uEHBL) device, possibly manifesting from exciton formation or condensation, was recently observed. The effects of density imbalance on…
We investigate the effects of long range Coulomb interactions on the low-temperature properties of a second-order Dirac semimetal in terms of the renormalization group. In contrast to the first-order Dirac semimetal, the full rotation…
