We investigate theoretically the spin-dependent electron transport in a Rashba quantum wire with rough edges. The charge and spin conductances are calculated as function of the electron energy or the wire length by adopting the spinresolved…
We explore electron transport properties for the model of benzene-1, 4-dithiolate (BDT) molecule and for some other geometric models of benzene molecule attached to two semi-infinite one-dimensional metallic electrodes using the Green's…
We study correlation effects on the transport through a quantum dot superlattice using a two-dimensional Hubbard model connected to two noninteracting leads. To calculate the zero-temperature conductance away from half-filling, we have used…
We propose a time-dependent many-body approach to study the short-time dynamics of correlated electrons in quantum transport through nanoscale systems contacted to metallic leads. This approach is based on the time-propagation of the…
Quantum transport for different models of isomer molecules attached to two semi-infinite leads is studied on the basis of Green's function technique. Electronic transport properties are significantly affected by (a) the relative position of…
We present an extension of the work of D'Amato and Pastawski on electron transport in a one-dimensional conductor modeled by the tight binding lattice Hamiltonian and in which inelastic scattering is incorporated by connecting each site of…
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…
We demonstrate using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy the electron quantization within metallic Au atomic wires self-assembled on a Si(111) surface and segmented by adatom impurities. The local electronic states of wire…
We develop a method to extract the universal conductance of junctions of multiple quantum wires, a property of systems connected to reservoirs, from static ground-state computations in closed finite systems. The method is based on a key…
The conductance of a molecular junction is commonly determined by either charge-transfer-doping, where alignment of the Fermi energy to the molecular levels is achieved, or tunnelling through the tails of molecular resonances within the…
We evaluate the phase-coherent transport of electrons along linear structures of varying length, which are made from two types of potential wells set in either a periodic or a Fibonacci quasi-periodic sequence. The array is described by a…
The influence of electron--electron interaction on two terminal DC conductance of one--dimensional quantum wires is studied. A cancelation between the effect of the electron--electron interaction on the current and on the external electric…
We use a generalized Master equation (GME) formalism to describe the non-equilibrium time-dependent transport through a short quantum wire connected to semi-infinite biased leads. The contact strength between the leads and the wire are…
Inelastic effects in electron transport through nano-sized devices are addressed with a method based on nonequilibrium Green's functions (NEGF) and perturbation theory to infinite order in the electron-vibration coupling. We discuss the…
We explore theoretically how the coupling to cavity vacuum fields affects the electron transport in quantum conductors due to the counter-rotating-wave terms of light-matter interaction. We determine the quantum conductance in terms of the…
A remarkably quantitative understanding of the electrical and mechanical properties of metal wires with a thickness on the scale of a nanometer has been obtained within the free-electron model using semiclassical techniques. Convergent…
We show that a tight-binding one-dimensional chain composed of interacting and non-interacting atomic sites can exhibit multiple mobility edges at different values of carrier energy in presence of external electric field. Within a mean…
We calculate the conductance through double junctions of the type M(inf.)-Sn-Mm-Sn-M(inf.) and triple junctions of the type M(inf.)-Sn-Mm-Sn-Mm-Sn-M(inf.), where M(inf.) are semi-infinite metallic electrodes, Sn are 'n' layers of…
We consider the time-dependent electron transport through a quantum dot connected to multiple leads in the presence of the additional over-dot (bridge) tunnelling channels by using the evolution operator technique. Each terminal and quantum…
Electron transport through multi-terminal rectangular arrays of quantum rings is studied in the presence of Rashba-type spin-orbit interaction (SOI) and of a perpendicular magnetic field. Using the analytic expressions for the transmission…
