A Rayleigh-type surface acoustic wave (SAW) is used in various fields as classical and quantum information carriers because of its surface localization, high electrical controllability, and low propagation loss. Coupling and hybridization…

We propose a single optical photon source for quantum cryptography based on the acousto-electric effect. Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) propagating through a quasi-one-dimensional channel have been shown to produce packets of electrons which…

We consider the transport spectroscopy of a quantum dot with an even number of electrons at finite bias voltage within the Coulomb blockade diamond. We calculate the tunneling current due to the elastic and inelastic co-tunneling processes…

We develop a linear theory of electron transport for a system of two identical quantum wires in a wide range of the wire length L, unifying both the ballistic and diffusive transport regimes. The microscopic model, involving the interaction…

Tunneling of electrons traversing a few-electron quantum dot is strongly influenced by the Coulomb interaction leading to Coulomb blockade effects and single-electron tunneling. We present calculations which demonstrate that correlations…

We report on non-adiabatic transport through a double quantum dot under irradiation of surface acoustic waves generated on-chip. At low excitation powers, absorption and emission of single and multiple phonons is observed. At higher power,…

We show that electron transport through a long multichannel wire, connected to leads by tunnel junctions, at low temperatures and voltages is dominated by inelastic cotunnelling. This mechanism results in experimentally observed power-law…

The charge density wave (CDW) is a condensate that often forms in layered materials. It is known to carry electric current \emph{en masse}, but the transport mechanism remains poorly understood at the microscopic level. Its quantum nature…

Charge carrier transport is pivotal in advancing nanoelectronics. Despite progress in exciton transport within ultra-thin semiconductors, the intertwined transport of free carriers and excitons presents challenges. Surface Acoustic Waves…

Numerical simulations of the Navier-Stokes, Nernst-Planck, and the Poisson equations are employed to describe the transport processes in an aqueous electrolyte in a parallel-plate nanochannel, where surface-acoustic waves (SAWs) are…

The effect of a perpendicular magnetic field on the quantized current induced by a surface acoustic wave in a quasi-1D channel is studied. The channel has been produced experimentally in a GaAs heterostructure by shallow etching techniques…

An electron-phonon cavity consisting of a quantum dot embedded in a free-standing GaAs/AlGaAs membrane is characterized in Coulomb blockade measurements at low temperatures. We find a complete suppression of single electron tunneling around…

We study both theoretically and experimentally the nonlinear interaction between an intense surface acoustic wave and a two-dimensional electron plasma in semiconductor-piezocrystal hybrid structures. The experiments on hybrid systems…

We study theoretically electronic transport through a contact of a quantum wire with 2D or 3D leads and find that if the contact is not smooth and adiabatic then the conduction is strongly suppressed below a threshold voltage $V_T$, while…

Dynamically manipulating carriers in van der Waals heterostructures could enable solid-state quantum simulators with tunable lattice parameters. A key requirement is forming deep potential wells to reliably trap excitations. Here, we report…

Surface acoustic waves (SAW) and associated SAW devices are ideal for sensing, metrology, and connecting and controlling hybrid quantum devices. While the advances demonstrated to date are largely based on electromechanical coupling, a…

The emerging field of quantum acoustics explores interactions between acoustic waves and artificial atoms and their applications in quantum information processing. In this experimental study, we demonstrate the coupling between a surface…

A dc current induced in a quantum constriction by a traveling acoustic wave (or by non-equilibrium ballistic phonons) is considered. We show that in many important situations the effect is originated from acoustically-induced scattering…

We derive a master equation for the electron transport through molecular wires in the limit of strong Coulomb repulsion. This approach is applied to two typical situations: First, we study transport through an open conduction channel for…

A theory of d.c. electric current induced in a quantum channel by a propagating surface acoustic wave (acoustoelectric current) is worked out. The first observation of the acoustoelectric current in such a situation was reported by J. M.…
