We consider a bidimensional discrete annular cavity with surface roughness (SR) threaded by a magnetic flux. In the ballistic regime and at half filling, localized border-states show up. These border states contribute coherentely to the…
Persistent currents in mesoscopic normal metal rings represent, even a decade after their first experimental observation, a challenge to both, theorists and experimentalists. After giving a brief review of the existing -- experimental and…
In this work, we study persistent current in a mesoscopic cylinder subjected to both longitudinal and transverse magnetic fluxes. A simple tight-binding model is used to describe the system, where all the calculations are performed exactly…
We have analysed the nature of persistent currents in open coupled mesoscopic rings. Our system is comprised of two ideal loops connected to an electron reservoir. We have obtained analytical expressions for the persistent current densities…
Persistent currents in disordered mesoscopic rings threaded by a magnetic flux are calculated using exact diagonalization methods in the one-dimensional (1D) case and self-consistent Hartree-Fock treatments for two dimensional (2D) systems.…
Recent precision measurements of mesoscopic persistent currents in normal-metal rings rely on the interaction between the magnetic moment generated by the current and a large applied magnetic field. Motivated by this technique, we extend…
We study the persistent currents flowing in a mesoscopic ring threaded by a magnetic flux and connected to a stub of finite length. Multistability processes and Coulomb blockade are demonstrated to be present in this system. These…
The effect of point defects on persistent currents in mesoscopic systems is studied in a simple tight-binding model. Using an analogy with the treatment of the critical quantum Ising chain with defects, conformal invariance techniques are…
Using an exact diagonalization technique within a generalized Mott-Hubbard Hamiltonian, we predict the existence of a ground state persistent current in coherent two-dimensional semiconductor quantum dot arrays pierced by an external…
Persistent current in one-dimensional non-superconducting mesoscopic rings threaded by a slowly varying magnetic flux $\phi$ is studied based on the tight-binding model. The behavior of the persistent current is discussed in three aspects:…
We show that several novel effects related to persistent currents can arise in open systems, which have no analogue in closed or isolated systems. We have considered a system of a metallic ring coupled to two electron reservoirs. We show…
Persistent currents of disordered multichannel mesoscopic rings of spinless interacting fermions threaded by a magnetic flux are calculated using exact diagonalizations and self-consistent Hartree-Fock methods. The validity of the…
The electronic transport in a system of two quantum rings side-coupled to a quantum wire is studied via a single-band tunneling tight-binding Hamiltonian. We derived analytical expressions for the conductance, density of states and the…
The persistent current in a clean mesoscopic ring with ballistic electron motion is calculated. The particle dynamics inside a ring is assumed to be chaotic due to scattering at the surface irregularities of atomic size. This allows one to…
We use the exact correlation function of the density of energy levels in the magnetic field to evaluate persistent currents in mesoscopic metals. We also analyze the perturbation theory limit of the correlation function vis-a-vis the…
We report the solution of the persistent current in two coupled rings in the presence of external magnetic fluxes. We showed that the magnetic fluxes modify the global phase of the electronic wave function for multiple connected geometry…
It is shown that in a structure consisting of a superconducting ring-shaped electrode overlapped by a normal metal contact through a thin oxide barrier, measurements of the tunnel current in magnetic field can probe persistent currents in…
We present an extensive analytical study of persistent current in a weakly disordered two-chain cylindrical ring threaded by an Aharonov-Bohm flux $0 < \phi <\phi_0/2$ (with $\phi_0$ the flux quantum) and described by the Anderson model.…
Recent discovery of mesoscopic electronic structures, in particular the carbon nanotubes, made necessary an investigation of what effect may helical symmetry of the conductor (metal or semiconductor) have on the persistent current…
We study the persistent current circulating along a mesoscopic ring with a dot side-coupled to it when threaded by a magnetic field. A cluster including the dot and its vicinity is diagonalized and embedded into the rest of the system. The…
