We have calculated the spin-polarization effects of a current in a two dimensional electron gas which is contacted by two ferromagnetic metals. In the purely diffusive regime, the current may indeed be spin-polarized. However, for a typical…

We determine the shot noise asymmetry of a quantum dot under reversal of an external magnetic field. The dot is coupled to edge states which invert their chirality when the field is reversed, leading to a magnetoasymmetric electrochemical…

This is a study of phase-coherent conduction through a ballistic point contact with disordered leads. The disorder imposes mesoscopic (sample-to-sample) fluctuations and weak-localization corrections on the conductance, and also leads to…
