The zero-bias anomaly in the dependence of the tunneling density of states $\nu (\epsilon)$ on the energy $\epsilon$ of the tunneling particle for two- and one-dimensional multilayered structures is studied. We show that for a ballistic…
We show that smooth variations, \delta n({\bf r}), of the local electron concentration in a clean 2D electron gas give rise to a zero-bias anomaly in the tunnel density of states, \nu(\omega), even in the absence of scatterers, and thus,…
We investigate the electron tunneling into the edge of a clean weakly interacting two-dimensional electron gas. It is shown that the corresponding differential conductance $G(V)$ has a cusp at zero bias, and is characterized by a universal…
We provide conclusive experimental evidence that zero bias anomaly in the differential resistance of magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) is due to electron-electron interaction (EEI), clarifying a long standing issue. Magnon effect that caused…
Asymmetric double tunnel barriers with the center electrode being a metal cluster in the quantum regime are studied. The zero dimensionality of the clusters used and the associated quantized energy spectra are manifest in well-defined steps…
Using the closed-time path integral approach, we nonperturbatively study inelastic tunneling of electrons via magnetic impurities in the barrier accompanied by phonon emission in a magnetic tunnel junction. The spectrum density of phonon…
We study the sub-gap conductance of a ferromagnetic mesoscopic region attached to a ferromagnetic and a superconducting electrode by means of tunnel junctions. In the absence of the exchange field, the ratio $r= \gamma / \epsilon_T$ of the…
We report exchange bias (EB) in single-phase CoO nanoparticles, where two magnetic phases naturally emerge as the crystallite size decreases from 34.6 to 10.8 nm. The N\'eel temperature (TN) associated with antiferromagnetic ordering…
We present data of transport measurements through a metallic nanobridge exhibiting diffusive electron transport. A logarithmic temperature dependence and a zero-bias anomaly in the differential conductance are observed, independent of…
We study the Coulomb interaction effects on the tunneling conductance of a contact constructed of two parallel quantum wires. The following contacts are considered: two clean identical quantum wires, two disordered identical quantum wires,…
Planar macroscopic magnetic tunnel junctions exhibit well defined zero bias anomalies when a thin layer of ferromagnetic CoFe(B) nanodots is inserted within a MgO based tunnel barrier. The conductance curves exhibit a single and a double…
The c-axis tunneling matrix of high-Tc superconductors is shown to depend strongly on the in-plane momentum of electrons and vanish along the four nodal lines of the d(x^2-y^2)-wave energy gap. This anisotropic tunneling matrix suppresses…
We present the results of non-linear tunnelling spectroscopy between an array of independent quantum wires and an adjacent two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in a double-quantum-well structure. The two layers are separately contacted using…
We report a characterization of surfaces of the dichalcogenide TaSe$_2$ using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/S) at 150 mK. When the top layer has the 2H structure and the layer immediately below the 1T structure, we…
Tunneling of electrons into a two-dimensional electron system is known to exhibit an anomaly at low bias, in which the tunneling conductance vanishes due to a many-body interaction effect. Recent experiments have measured this anomaly…
We present a microscopic study of single-electron tunneling in nanomechanical double-barrier tunneling junctions formed using a vibrating scanning nanoprobe and a metallic nanoparticle connected to a metallic substrate through a molecular…
We study the low temperature magnetic properties of nanoparticles of pure transition metal carbide, viz., Co2C, with an average particle diameter of $40 \pm 10$ nm. These Co2C nanoparticles are ferromagnetic (FM) up to room temperature with…
We have measured the electronic energy spectra of nm-scale Au particles using a new tunneling spectroscopy configuration. The particle diameters ranged from 5nm to 9nm, and at low energies the spectrum is discrete, as expected by the…
A peculiarity of the single-electron transistor effect makes it possible to observe this effect even in structures lacking a gate electrode altogether. The proposed method can be useful for experimental study of charging effects in…
Tunneling spectroscopy is applied to tunnel junctions with only one or no ferromagnetic electrode to study the excitation of quasi particles in magnetic tunnel junctions. The bias dependence is investigated with high accuracy by inelastic…
