Measurements of current-voltage characteristics from ideal carbon nanotube (CNT) field electron emitters of small apex radius have shown that these emitters can exhibit a linear Fowler-Nordheim (FN) plot [e.g., Dean and Chalamala, Appl.…

We investigate energy resolved electric current from various correlated host materials under out-of-equilibrium conditions. We find that, due to a combined effect of electron-electron interactions, non-equilibrium and multi-particle…

The quantum entanglement of many states of matter can be represented by electric and magnetic fields, much like those found in Maxwell's theory. These fields "emerge" from the quantum structure of the many-electron state, rather than being…

A Hubbard-Luttinger model is developed for qualitative description of one-dimensional motion of interacting Pi-conductivity-electrons in carbon single-wall nanotubes at low temperatures. The low-lying excitations in one-dimensional electron…

Electron field emission characteristics of individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes have been investigated by a piezoelectric nanomanipulation system operating inside a scanning electron microscopy chamber. The experimental setup ensures a…

We investigate the properties of conduction electrons in single-walled armchair carbon nanotubes (SWNT) in the presence of both transverse electric and magnetic fields. We find that these fields provide a controlled means of tuning…

We report on the first direct observation of a transition from a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid to a Fermi liquid behavior in potassium intercalated mats of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT). Using high resolution photoemission spectroscopy…

We study the electrical transport properties of well-contacted ballistic single-walled carbon nanotubes in a three-terminal configuration at low temperatures. We observe signatures of strong electron-electron interactions: the conductance…

I attempt to give a pedagogical overview of the progress which has occurred during the past decade in the description of one-dimensional correlated fermions. Fermi liquid theory based on a quasi-particle picture, breaks down in one…

For many years, the Luttinger liquid theory has served as a useful paradigm for the description of one-dimensional (1D) quantum fluids in the limit of low energies. This theory is based on a linearization of the dispersion relation of the…

We study the response of the interacting electron gas in one dimension on the local external potential. In the low frequency limit the power-law singularities are essentially modifyed by backscattering effects which, in the case of zero…

This work presents a theoretical explanation for a crossover in the linear behavior in Fowler-Nordheim (FN) plots based on cold field electron emission (CFE) experimental data. It is characterized by a clear change in the decay rate of…

We study one-dimensional spinless fermions at zero and finite temperature T using the density matrix renormalization group. We consider nearest as well as next-nearest neighbor interactions; the latter render the system inaccessible by a…

We investigate the electronic instabilities in carbon nanotubes of short radius, looking for the breakdown of the Luttinger liquid regime from the singular behavior of the charge stiffnesses at low energies. We show that such a breakdown is…

We develop in this paper a theoretical framework that applies to the intermediate regime between the Coulomb blockade and the Luttinger liquid behavior in multi-walled carbon nanotubes. Our main goal is to confront the experimental…

We present a consistent description of the current distribution in the quantum Hall effect, based on two main ingredients: the location of the extended states and the distribution of the electric field. We show that the interaction between…

We develop a theoretical approach to the low-energy properties of 1D electron systems aimed to encompass the mixed features of Luttinger liquid and Coulomb blockade behavior observed in the crossover between the two regimes. For this aim we…

In this work we combine density functional theory and quantum transport calculations to study the influence of atomic--scale defects on the work function and field emission characteristics of metal surfaces. We develop a general methodology…

We study nonlinear transport for two coupled one-dimensional quantum wires or carbon nanotubes described by Luttinger liquid theory. Transport properties are shown to crucially depend on the contact length $L_c$. For a special interaction…

The classic theory of electron field emission from a cold metal surface due to Fowler and Nordheim (FN) is re-examined and found to violate the validity criteria for the WKB approximation, for electric fields greater than about 1V per…
