Conventional and spin-related thermoelectric effects in transport through a magnetic tunnel junction with a large-spin impurity, such as a magnetic molecule or atom, embedded into the corresponding barrier are studied theoretically in the…

We obtain a microscopic description of the interaction between electron spins in bulk semiconductors and in pairs of semiconductor quantum dots. Treating the k.p band mixing and the Coulomb interaction on the same footing, we obtain in the…

We study the transport through a molecular junction exhibiting interference effects. We show that these effects can still be observed in the presence of molecular vibrations if Coulomb repulsion is taken into account. In the Kondo regime,…

The full design of relevant systems for quantum applications, ranging from quantum simulation to sensing, is presented using a combination of atomistic methods. A prototypical system features a two-dimensional ordered distribution of spins…

We theoretically investigate quasiparticle interference in superconducting topological insulators with the nematic order parameter. This order parameter spontaneously breaks the rotational symmetry of the crystal. Such rotational symmetry…

We present a rigorous microscopic theory of the extrinsic spin Hall effect in disordered graphene based on a nonperturbative quantum diagrammatic treatment incorporating skew scattering and anomalous---impurity…

A trapped-ion quantum tunneling rotor (QTR) is in a quantum superposition of two different Wigner crystal orientations. In a QTR system, quantum tunneling drives the coherent transition between the two different Wigner crystal orientations.…

We consider the scattering matrix approach to quantum electron transport in meso- and nano-conductors. This approach is an alternative to the more conventional kinetic equation and Green's function approaches, and often is more efficient…

We propose and theoretically investigate spin superconducting qubits. Spin superconducting qubit consists of a single spin confined in a Josephson junction. We show that owing to spin-orbit interaction, superconducting difference across the…

We consider an electron constrained to move on a surface with revolution symmetry in the presence of a constant magnetic field $B$ parallel to the surface axis. Depending on $B$ and the surface geometry the transverse part of the spectrum…

We analyze an interplay between the proximity effect and quantum interference of electrons in hybrid structures superconductor-normal metal-superconductor which contain several insulating barriers. We demonstrate that the dc Josephson…

The conductance of systems containing two tunnel point-contacts and a single subsurface scatterer is investigated theoretically. The problem is solved in the approximation of s-wave scattering giving analytical expressions for the wave…

Mesoscopic conductors are electronic systems of sizes in between nano- and micrometers, and often of reduced dimensionality. In the phase-coherent regime at low temperatures, the conductance of these devices is governed by quantum…

Quantum interference effects and decoherence mechanisms in single-molecule junctions are analyzed employing a nonequilibrium Green's function approach. Electrons tunneling through quasi-degenerate states of a nanoscale molecular junction…

We demonstrate possible scenarios for production of pure spin current and large tunnelling magnetoresistance ratios from elastic co-tunnelling and crossed Andreev reflection across a superconducting junction comprising of normal…

We investigate analytically and numerically the mean-field superconducting-normal phase boundaries of two-dimensional superconducting wire networks and Josephson junction arrays immersed in a transverse magnetic field. The geometries we…

The study of electron transport and scattering processes limiting electron mobility in high-quality semiconductor structures is central to solid-state electronics. Here, we uncover an unavoidable source of electron scattering which is…

A quantum dot is a sub-micron-scale conducting device containing up to several thousand electrons. Transport through a quantum dot at low temperatures is a quantum-coherent process. This review focuses on dots in which the electron's…

The motion of a conducting electron in a quantum dot with one or several dislocations in the underlying crystal lattice is considered in the continuum picture, where dislocations are represented by torsion of space. The possible effects of…

We show theoretically and experimentally the existence of a new quantum interference(QI) effect between the electron-hole interactions and the scattering by a single Mn impurity. Theoretical model, including electron-valence hole…
