When wave scattering systems are subject to certain symmetries, resonant states may decouple from the far-field continuum; they remain localized to the structure and cannot be excited by incident waves from the far field. In this work, we…

We study the electronic transport of armchair and zigzag gated phosphorene junctions. We find confined states for both direction-dependent phosphorene junctions. In the case of armchair junctions confined states are reflected in the…

Coulomb blockade is observed in a graphene nanoribbon device with a top gate. When two pn junctions are formed via the back gate and the local top gate, electrons are confined between the pn junctions which act as the barriers. When no pn…

A periodically driven quantum system with avoided-level crossing experiences both non-adiabatic transitions and wave-function phase changes. These result in coherent interference fringes in the system's occupation probabilities. For qubits,…

The transport through a quantum wire exposed to two magnetic spikes in series is modeled. We demonstrate that quantum dots can be formed this way which couple to the leads via magnetic barriers. Conceptually, all quantum dot states are…

We report the observation of the resonant transport in multiwall carbon nanotubes in a crossed geometry. The resonant transport is manifested by an asymmetric peak in the differential conductance curve. The observed asymmetric conductance…

We observe a series of sharp resonant features in the tunnelling differential conductance of InAs quantum dots. We found that dissipative quantum tunnelling has a strong influence on the operation of nano-devices. Because of such tunnelling…

Quantum transmission spectra of a twisted electron waveguide expose the coupling between traveling and quasi-bound states. Through a direct numerical solution of the open-boundary Schr\"odinger equation we single out the effects of the…

We study theoretically the entanglement created in a scattering between an electron, incoming from a source lead, and another electron bound in the ground state of a quantum dot, connected to two leads. We analyze the role played by the…

Due to effect of Klein tunneling two-dimensional graphene quantum dots do not possess genuine bound states but quasi-bound (resonant tunneling) states only. We discuss in detail the attempt to describe these states within the framework of…

An antiferromagnetic insulating state has been found in the zigzag phosphorene nanoribbons (ZPNRs) from a comprehensive density functional theory calculations. Comparing with other one-dimensional systems, the magnetism in ZPNRs display…

We consider states localized by electrostatic potentials in phosphorene using an atomistic tight binding approach. From the results of the tight-binding calculations of the confined states we extract effective masses for the conduction band…

We theoretically study emergent edge and corner states in monolayer blue phosphorus (blue phosphorene) using the first-principles calculation and tight-binding model. We show that the existence of the Wannier orbitals at every bond center…

An interesting property of zigzag graphene nanoribbons is the presence of edge states which are extended along its borders but localized in the transverse direction. We show that because of this property, electron transport through an…

We study resonant tunneling through quantum-dot systems in the presence of strong Coulomb repulsion and coupling to the metallic leads. Motivated by recent experiments we concentrate on (i) a single dot with two energy levels and (ii) a…

We have studied quantum transport in Graphene Nanoribbon Tunnel Field-Effect Transistors. Unlike other studies on similar structures, we have included dissipative processes induced by inelastic electron-phonon scattering and edge roughness…

We theoretically analyze phonon-assisted tunneling transport in a quantum dot side connected to a Majorana bound state in a topological superconducting nanowire. We investigate the behavior of the current through the dot, for a range of…

Quantum confinement of graphene carriers is an effective way to engineer its properties. It is commonly realized through physical edges that are associated with the deterioration of mobility and strong suppression of plasmon resonances.…

We investigate electron transport through a diatomic molecule parallelly coupled to infinite source and drain contacts. We utilize a model Hamiltonian involving a Hubbard term in which the contacts are modeled using recently developed…

With nonequilibrium Green's function approach combined with density functional theory, we perform an ab initio calculation to investigate transport properties of graphene nanoribbon junctions self-consistently. Tight-binding approximation…
