Finite systems in confining potentials are known to undergo structural transitions similar to phase transitions. However, these systems are inhomogeneous, and their "melting" point may depend on the position in the trap and vary with the…
Control of the Coulomb interaction between single electrons is vital for realizing quantum information processing using flying electrons and, particularly, for the realization of deterministic two-qubit operations. Since the strength of the…
