An approach to calculation of the ionized impurity and surface roughness scattering rates of electrons in very thin semiconductor quantum wires taking into account the energy level broadening is worked out. It is assumed that all the…

We propose that the recently realized T-shaped semiconductor quantum wires (T-wires) could be exploited as three-terminal quantum interference devices. T-wires are formed by intersecting two quantum wells (QWs). By use of a scattering…

Conductivity of quantized multilayer metal films is analyzed with an emphasis on scattering by rough interlayer interfaces. Three different types of quantum size effect (QSE) in conductivity are predicted. Two of these QSE are similar to…

We study the way back-scattering electron--electron interaction generates Coulomb drag between quantum wires with different densities. At low temperature $T$ the system can undergo a commensurate-- incommensurate transition as the potential…

We have measured the collective excitation spectrum of interacting electrons in one-dimension. The experiment consists of controlling the energy and momentum of electrons tunneling between two clean and closely situated, parallel quantum…

We consider the influence of a power-law deviation from the critical coupling such that the system is critical at its surface. We develop a scaling theory showing that such a perturbation introduces a new length scale which governs the…

We have measured the temperature dependence of the conductance in long V-groove quantum wires (QWRs) fabricated in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures. Our data is consistent with recent theories developed within the framework of the Luttinger…

We study conductance fluctuations in disordered quantum wires with unitary symmetry focusing on the case in which the number of conducting channels in one propagating direction is not equal to that in the opposite direction. We consider…

We study a phase diagram for the sliding Luttinger liquid (SLL) of coupled one-dimensional quantum wires packed in a two-dimensional array in the absence of a magnetic field. We analyze whether nearest-neighbor inter-wire interactions,…

This paper presents a comprehensive study on the scalability challenges and opportunities in quantum communication networks, with the goal of determining parameters that impact networks most as well as the trends that appear when scaling…

At temperatures $T < {\hbar v_F}/{K_B d} \equiv T^{wire}$ the collective excitations are negligible and the spectrum of the short wire is dominated by the ''zero modes'' particle excitations. At temperature $ T > T^{wire}$ a spin polarized…

Impurity scattering in the unitary limit produces low energy quasiparticles with anisotropic spectrum in a two-dimensional $d$-wave superconductor. We describe a new {\em quasi-one-dimensional } limit of the quasiparticle scattering, which…

An intuitive overview of the scalability of a variety of types of wireless networks is presented. Simple heuris- tic arguments are demonstrated here for scaling laws presented in other works, as well as for conditions not previously…

We investigate the behavior of the four-terminal resistance $R_{4pt}$ in a quantum wire described by a Luttinger liquid in two relevant situations: (i) in the presence of a single impurity within the wire and (ii) under the effect of…

Short length quantum wires (quantum contacts) exhibit a conductance structure at the value of conductance close to 0.7 \times 2e^2/h. The structure is also called the conductance anomaly. In longer contacts the structure evolves to the…

We show that electron--electron scattering gives a positive contribution to the resistivity of ballistic multimode wires whose width is much smaller than their length. This contribution is not exponentially small at low temperatures and…

The conductance of a waveguide containing finite number of periodically placed identical point-like impurities is investigated. It has been calculated as a function of both the impurity strength and the number of impurities using the…

The transport in a pure one-dimensional quantum wire is investigated for any range of interactions. First, the wire is connected to measuring leads. The transmission of an incident electron is found to be perfect, and the conductance is not…

We study electronic transport in a Luttinger liquid (LL) with an embedded impurity, which is either a weak scatterer (WS) or a weak link (WL), when interacting electrons are coupled to one-dimensional massless bosons (e.g., acoustic…

A model quantum wire embedded in a matrix permeable to electron waves is investigated in terms of electronic states. The wire is assumed to have a 1D crystal structure. Through electron waves propagating in its surroundings, lateral modes…
