Qubits based on the magnetic flux degree of freedom require a flux bias, whose stability and precision strongly affect the qubit performance, up to a point of forbidding the qubit operation. Moreover, in the perspective of multiqubit…
The inverse current, i.e., induced current is opposite to applied force, has recentlybeen found in a classical one-dimensional interacting Hamiltonian system [Phys. Rev.Lett. 124, 110607 (2020)]. In this paper, we show that inverse current…

We have studied the Aharonov-Bohm flux-induced magnetic response of a disordered non-Hermitian ring. The disorder is introduced through an on-site quasiperiodic potential described by the Aubry-Andr\'{e}-Harper (AAH) model, incorporating a…
The persistent current in a clean mesoscopic ring with ballistic electron motion is calculated. The particle dynamics inside a ring is assumed to be chaotic due to scattering at the surface irregularities of atomic size. This allows one to…
