We study the tunneling current between two counterpropagating edge modes described by chiral Luttinger liquids when the tunneling takes place along an extended region. We compute this current perturbatively by using a tunnel Hamiltonian.…
We study resonant tunneling in a Luttinger liquid with a double barrier enclosing a dot region. Within a microscopic model calculation the conductance G as a function of temperature T is determined over several decades. We identify…
We investigate the self-induced turbulence of high repetition rate laser filaments over a wide range of average powers (1 mW to 100 W) and its sensitivity to external atmospheric turbulence. Although both externally-imposed and…
