Transport through semiconductor nanostructures is a quantum-coherent process. This paper focuses on systems in which the electron's dynamics is ballistic and the transport is dominated by the scattering from structure boundaries. Opposite…
We have prepared and detected quantum coherences with long dephasing times at the level of single trapped cesium atoms. Controlled transport by an "optical conveyor belt" over macroscopic distances preserves the atomic coherence with slight…

We show that, in presence of a complex spectrum, antiresonances act as a precursor for dephasing enabling the crossover to a fully decoherent transport even within a unitary Hamiltonian description. This general scenario is illustrated here…
