Electronically excited atoms or molecules may deexcite by emission of a secondary electron through an Auger-Meitner decay. This deexcitation process is typically considered to be exponential in time. This is strictly speaking, however, only…

In this work, we use the Shannon informational entropies to study an electron confined in a double quantum dot; we mean the entropy in the space of positions, $S_r$, in the space of momentum, $S_p$, and the total entropy, $S_t = S_r+S_p$.…

Single-electron pumps based on isolated impurity atoms have recently been experimentally demonstrated. In these devices the Coulomb potential of an atom creates a localised electron state with a large charging energy and considerable…
