We investigate experimentally and theoretically the behavior of Coulomb blockade (CB) peaks in a magnetic field that couples principally to the ground-state spin (rather than the orbital moment) of a chaotic quantum dot. In the first part,…
Current-voltage characteristics of a spintromechanical device, in which spin-polarized electrons tunnel between magnetic leads with anti-parallel magnetization through a single level movable quantum dot, are calculated. New exchange- and…
We study the nonequilibrium spin transport through a quantum dot containing two spin levels coupled to the magnetic electrodes. A formula for the spin-dependent current is obtained and is applied to discuss the linear conductance and…
Electron transport through a one-dimensional ring connected with two external leads, in the presence of spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of strength \alpha and a perpendicular magnetic field is studied. Applying Griffith's boundary conditions…
We derive a closed expression for the finite-temperature conductance of a Coulomb-blockade quantum dot in the presence of an exchange interaction and a parallel magnetic field. Parallel-field dependence of Coulomb-blockade peak position has…
We study quantum interference effects on the transition strength for strongly localized electrons hopping on 2D square and 3D cubic lattices in the presence of a magnetic field B. These effects arise from the interference between phase…
We investigate the transport properties of a quantum dot coupled to leads interacting with a multi-spin system using the generalized master equation within the Coulomb blockade regime. We find that if two states for each scattering region…
We consider determination of spin-orbit (SO) coupling constants for the two-dimensional electron gas from measurements of electric properties in rotated in-plane magnetic field. %Due to the interplay Due to the SO coupling the electron…
Shuttling of electrons in single-molecule transistors with magnetic leads in the presence of an external magnetic field is considered theoretically. For a current of partially spin-polarized electrons a shuttle instability is predicted to…
Using an S-matrix formulation we evaluate the conductance of a one dimensional free electron gas in double exchange interaction with a classical conical magnet. We find integer conductance steps depending on the energy window of the…
We have studied the magnetic field dependence of the ground state energies in a small Si quantum dot. At low fields the first five electrons are added in a spin-up -- spin-down sequence minimizing the total spin. This sequence does not hold…
We have measured the magnetic splitting, $\Delta_K$, of a Kondo peak in the differential conductance of a Single-Electron Transistor while tuning the Kondo temperature, $T_K$, along two different paths in the parameter space: varying the…
We review the peculiarities of transport through a quantum dot caused by the spin transition in its ground state. Such transitions can be induced by a magnetic field. Tunneling of electrons between the dot and leads mixes the states…
The magnetization of semiconductor quantum dots in the presence of spin-orbit coupling and interactions is investigated numerically. When the dot is occupied by two electrons we find that a level crossing between the two lowest many-body…
The conductance resulting from resonant tunneling through a droplet of $N \sim 30$ electrons is used to measure its chemical potential $\mu_N$. Abrupt shifts of $\mu_N$ occur at sharply defined values of the magnetic field, at which the…
We utilize simulations of electron scattering by a chain of dynamical quantum spins, to analyze the interplay between the spin transfer effect and the magnetization dynamics. We show that the complex interactions between the spin-polarized…
We use spin-density-functional theory to study the spacing between conductance peaks and the ground-state spin of 2D model quantum dots with up to 200 electrons. Distributions for different ranges of electron number are obtained in both…
We study the interaction corrections to the transport coefficients in open quantum dots (i.e. dots connected to leads of large conductance $G \gg e^2/\pi\hbar$), via a quantum kinetic equation approach. The effects of all the channels of…
We study the effect of spin-orbit interaction and in-plane effective magnetic field on the conductance of a quasi-one-dimensional ballistic electron system. The effective magnetic field includes the externally applied field, as well as the…
The transport properties of interacting electrons for which the spin degree of freedom is taken into account are numerically studied for small two dimensional diffusive clusters. On-site electron-electron interactions tend to delocalize the…
