What are the ground states of an interacting, low-density electron system? In the absence of disorder, it has long been expected that as the electron density is lowered, the exchange energy gained by aligning the electron spins should…
Scattering or tunneling of an electron at a potential barrier is a fundamental quantum effect. Electron-electron interactions often affect the scattering, and understanding of the interaction effect is crucial in detection of various…
Properties of the "electron gas" - in which conduction electrons interact by means of Coulomb forces but ionic potentials are neglected - change dramatically depending on the balance between kinetic energy and Coulomb repulsion. The limits…

We study the frequency and space dependence of the local tunneling density of states of a Luttinger liquid (LL) which is connected to a superconductor. This coupling {\em strongly} modifies the single-particle properties of the LL. It…
We investigate the low-energy collective charge excitations (plasmons, holons) in metallic atomic wires deposited on semiconducting substrates. These systems are described by two-dimensional correlated models representing strongly…

Strongly interacting electron systems can provide insight into quantum many-body phenomena, such as Mott insulating behavior and spin liquidity, facilitating semiconductor optimization. The Fermi-Hubbard model is the prototypical model used…
We propose a protocol that transfers entanglement from an entangled atomic two-level-system (TLS) resource to a pair of free electrons in an energy-sideband ladder via local electron-TLS interactions. In a controlled rotating-wave regime,…
We study a model of correlated electrons coupled by tunnelling to a layer of itinerant metallic electrons, which allows to interpolate from a frustrated limit favorable to spin liquid states to a Kondo-lattice limit favorable to interlayer…
