We study interaction-induced localization of electrons in an inhomogeneous quasi-one-dimensional system--a wire with two regions, one at low density and the other high. Quantum Monte Carlo techniques are used to treat the strong Coulomb…
We explore electron transport through a quantum dot coupled to the source and drain charge reservoirs We trace the transition from the Coulomb blockade regime to Kondo regime in the electron transport through the dot occuring when we…
We consider circular and elliptic quantum dots with parabolic external confinement, containing 0 - 22 electrons and with values of r_s in the range 0 < r_s < 3. We perform restricted and unrestricted Hartree-Fock calculations, and further…
A new theoretical method is introduced to study coherent electron transport in an interacting multilevel quantum dot. The method yields the correct behavior both in the limit of weak and strong coupling to the leads, giving a unified…
We study numerically the ground state magnetization for clusters of interacting electrons in two dimensions in the regime where the single particle wavefunctions are localized by disorder. It is found that the Coulomb interaction leads to a…
Properties of the "electron gas" - in which conduction electrons interact by means of Coulomb forces but ionic potentials are neglected - change dramatically depending on the balance between kinetic energy and Coulomb repulsion. The limits…
We use Kohn-Sham spin-density-functional theory to study the statistics of ground-state spin and the spacing between conductance peaks in the Coulomb blockade regime for both 2D isolated and realistic quantum dots. We make a systematic…
A two-band model of a disordered semiconductor is used to analyze dynamical interaction induced weakening of localization in a system that is accessible to experimental verification. The results show a dependence on the sign of the…
Electron transport properties of few-electron open quantum dots within the spin-restricted Hartree-Fock approximation are studied. The self-consistent numerical calculations were performed for a whole device, including the semi-infinite…
Spin-dependent transport through an interacting single-level quantum dot coupled to ferromagnetic leads with non-collinear magnetizations is analyzed theoretically. The transport properties and average spin of the dot are investigated…
An efficient computational methodology is used to explore charge transport properties in chemically-modified (and randomly disordered) graphene-based materials. The Hamiltonians of various complex forms of graphene are constructed using…
Spin-dependent electronic transport through a quantum dot side-coupled to two quantum dots and attached to ferromagnetic leads with collinear (parallel and antiparallel) magnetizations is analyzed theoretically. The intra-dot Coulomb…
Nonequilibrium electronic transport through a quantum dot coupled to ferromagnetic leads (electrodes) is studied theoretically by the nonequilibrium Green function technique. The system is described by the Anderson model with arbitrary…
The spectral properties of up to four interacting electrons confined within a quasi one--dimensional system of finite length are determined by numerical diagonalization including the spin degree of freedom. The ground state energy is…
The influence of Coulomb interaction on transport properties of spinless electrons in small disordered two dimensional systems is studied within a tight binding model. Spatial correlations, inverse participation ratio, and multifractal…
The unique property of Coulomb interaction in strict one-dimensional (1D) system is revealed that the Coulomb repulsion energy of paired electrons is divergent. As consequences, electrons in 1D system can not doubly occupy the same spatial…
We study the interplay between magnetic frustration and itinerant electrons. For example, how does the coupling to mobile charges modify the properties of a spin liquid, and does the underlying frustration favor insulating or conducting…
Electron transport in a quantum wire with leads is investigated with actual Coulomb interaction taken into account. The latter includes both the direct interaction of electrons with each other and their interaction via the image charges…
In order to understand the orbital and spin magnetization of a confined electronic system we analyze these ground state properties in the transition from a quantum dot to a quantum ring of finite thickness. The Coulomb interaction between…
This article reviews spin-dependent transport of carriers in homogenous three-dimensional and two-dimensional semiconductors. We begin with a discussion of optical orientation of electron spins, which allows both the creation and detection…
