The energy spectrum of an electron confined to an arbitrary surface of revolution in an external magnetic field, parallel to the symmetry axis, is studied analitycally and numerically. The problem is reduced via conformal mapping to one on…

The curvature effect on the electronic states of a deformed cylindrical conducting surface of variable diameter is theoretically investigated. The quantum confinement of electrons normal to the curved surface results in an effective…

A review work is done for electronic and optical properties of graphene nanoribbons in magnetic, electric, composite, and modulated fields. Effects due to the lateral confinement, curvature, stacking, non-uniform subsystems and hybrid…

We analyze the electronic properties of a two-dimensional electron gas rolled-up into a nanotube by both numerical and analytical techniques. The nature and the energy dispersion of the electronic quantum states strongly depend upon the…

The bending of a carbon nanotube is studied by considering the structural evolution of a carbon nanotorus from elastic deformation to the onset of the kinks and eventually to the collapse of the walls of the nanotorus. The changes in the…

Research into electronic nanomaterials has recently seen a growing focus into the synthesis of structures with unconventional curved geometries including bent wires in planar systems and three-dimensional architectures obtained by rolling…

We study the problem of an electron in two dimensions in the presence of a magnetic vortex with a step-like profile. Dependending on the values of the effective mass and gyromagnetic factor of the electron, it may be trapped by the vortex.…

The electrical double layer for three different topologies of nanopore electrodes is studied, i.e., the interior and exterior electrical double layers of planar, cylindrical and spherical nanopores immersed into a point-ions electrolyte,…

Quasi-two-dimensional systems may exibit curvature, which adds three-dimensional influence to their internal properties. As shown by da Costa \cite{dacosta}, charged particles moving on a curved surface experience a curvature-dependent…

Curvature of nanomagnets can be used to induce chiral textures in the magnetization field. Here we perform analytical calculations and micromagnetic simulations aiming to analyze the stability of in-surface magnetization configurations in…

We investigate an electron in the plane interacting with the magnetic field due to an electric current forming a localized rotationally symmetric vortex. We show that independently of the vortex profile an electron with spin antiparallel to…

Energies and wave functions of edge states in twodimensional electron gas are evaluated for a finite step potential barrier model. The spectrum, instead of smooth bending of Landau branches in the vicinity of the barrier acquires a steplike…

Generalizing the classical Thomson problem to the quantum regime provides an ideal model to explore the underlying physics regarding electron correlations. In this work, we systematically investigate the combined effects of the geometry of…

The effects of surface curvature on the motion of electrons in a mesoscopic two-dimensional ring on a cone in the presence of external magnetic fields are examined. The approach follows the thin-layer quantization procedure, which gives…

We theoretically study the optical properties and the electronic structure of highly elongated quantum dots (quantum dashes) and show how carrier trapping due to geometrical fluctuations of the confining potential affects the excitonic…

The effect of electric field, applied on systems in the nanoscale regime has attracted a lot of research in recent times. We highlight some of the recent results in the field of single molecule electronics and then move on to focus on some…

The electrical properties of a carbon nanotube depend strongly on its lattice structure as defined by chiral and translational vectors. A toroidal shape for a nanotube allows various twisted structures to exist along the direction of the…

Electronic band structure for electrons bound on periodic minimal surfaces is differential-geometrically formulated and numerically calculated. We focus on minimal surfaces because they are not only mathematically elegant (with the surface…

Topological effects of a spiral dislocation on an electron are investigated when it is confined to a hard-wall confining potential. Besides, it is analysed the influence of the topology of the spiral dislocation on the interaction of the…

In a recent paper Liang {\it et al.} [Nature {\bf 411}, 665 (2001)] showed experimentally, that metallic nanotubes, strongly coupled to external electrodes, may act as coherent molecular waveguides for electronic transport. The experimental…
