The dynamics of spin-boson systems at very low temperatures has been studied using a real-time path-integral simulation technique which combines a stochastic Monte Carlo sampling over the quantum fluctuations with an exact treatment of the…
We present a theoretical analysis of heat transport through a single-molecule junction with two possible transport channels for electrons where interactions between electrons on the molecule and phonons in the nuclear environment is strong…
Conduction of electrons in matter is ultimately described by quantum mechanics. Yet at low frequency or long time scales, low temperature quantum transport is perfectly described by this very simple idea: electrons are emitted by the…
A Mn-porphyrin was contacted on Au(111) in a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope (STM). Differential conductance spectra show a zero-bias resonance that is due to an underscreened Kondo effect according to many-body calculations.…
The transport on top of a periodic two-dimensional hexagonal magnetic pattern of (i) a single macroscopic steel sphere, (ii) a doublet of wax/magnetite composite spheres, and (iii) an immiscible mixture of ferrofluid droplets with a…
We investigate tunneling through a short interacting wire. We identify two temperature regimes (a) $T_{Kondo}<T\le T^{wire}=\hbar v_F/k_Bd$ ($d$ is the length of the short wire) and (b) $T<T_{Kondo}\ll T^{wire}$. In the first regime the…
Tunneling of electrons traversing a few-electron quantum dot is strongly influenced by the Coulomb interaction leading to Coulomb blockade effects and single-electron tunneling. We present calculations which demonstrate that correlations…
Bosonic thermal transport through a two-level system is analyzed at temperatures below and comparable to the two-level energy splitting. It is shown that in the low-temperature regime transport is dominated by correlated two-boson processes…
One of the long-standing goals of quantum transport is to use the noise, rather than the average current, for information processing. However, achieving this requires on-demand control of quantum fluctuations in the electric current. In…
We calculate the zero temperature conductance and characteristic correlation functions of a molecule with a center of mass (CM) motion which modulates couplings to the leads. In the first model studied, the CM vibrational mode is…
We discuss electric transport and orbital magnetism of multilayer graphenes in a weak-magnetic field using the matrix decomposition technique. At zero temperature, the minimum conductivity is given by that of the monolayer system multiplied…
Based on the algebraic equation of motion (AEOM) method, we investigate the transport properties of a quantum dot. We obtain an analytical expression for the dot electron single-particle Green's function, and based on this expression, we…
Molecular aggregates can under certain conditions transport electronic excitation energy over large distances due to dipole-dipole interactions. Here, we explore to what extent thermal motion of entire monomers can guide or enhance this…
A time-dependent approach is used to explore inelastic effects during electron transport through few-level systems. We study a tight-binding chain with one and two sites connected to vibrations. This simple but transparent model gives…
We study theoretically electronic transport through a contact of a quantum wire with 2D or 3D leads and find that if the contact is not smooth and adiabatic then the conduction is strongly suppressed below a threshold voltage $V_T$, while…
The effect of a thermal environment on electron (or hole) transfer through molecular bridges and on the electron conduction properties of such bridges is studied. Our steady state formalism based on an extension of the Redfield theory (D.…
Graphene electrodes are promising candidates to improve reproducibility and stability in molecular electronics through new electrode-molecule anchoring strategies. Here we report sequential electron transport in few-layer graphene…
Electron plasmas confined by an external magnetic field exhibit variations in a two-dimensional plane orthogonal to the confining magnetic field. A nonlinear fluid simulation code to investigate the properties of 2-D electron plasma wave…
The influence of multiple vibrational modes on current fluctuations in electron transport through single-molecule junctions is investigated. Our analysis is based on a generic model of a molecular junction, which comprises a single…
We study numerically the low-temperature electronic transport properties of a single-ion magnet with uniaxial and transverse spin anisotropies. We find clear signatures of a Kondo effect caused by the presence of a transverse (zero-field)…
