The effects of surface curvature on the motion of electrons in a mesoscopic two-dimensional ring on a cone in the presence of external magnetic fields are examined. The approach follows the thin-layer quantization procedure, which gives…
We model one-dimensional transport through each open channel of a quantum wire by a Luttinger liquid with three different interaction parameters for the leads, the contact regions and the wire, and with two barriers at the contacts. We show…
A method is proposed for studying wave and particle transport in disordered waveguide systems of dimension higher than unity by means of exact one-dimensionalization of the dynamic equations in the mode representation. As a particular case,…
Quantum transport properties in quantum Hall wires in the presence of spatially correlated random potential are investigated numerically. It is found that the potential correlation reduces the localization length associated with the edge…
The paper considers the effect of the defects on the electronic transmission properties in binomially tailored waveguide quantum wires, in which each Dirac delta function potential strength have been weight on the binomial distribution law.…
Electronic transport properties of bismuth nanocontacts are analyzed by means of a low temperature scanning tunneling microscope. The subquantum steps observed in the conductance versus elongation curves give evidence of atomic…
Using remarkably simple experimental techniques it is possible to gently break a metallic contact and thus form conducting nanowires. During the last stages of the pulling a neck-shaped wire connects the two electrodes, the diameter of…
The properties of conductance in one-dimensional (1D) quantum wires are statistically investigated using an array of 256 lithographically-identical split gates, fabricated on a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure. All the split gates are measured…
We consider transport through a one-dimensional conductor subject to an external periodic potential and connected to non-interacting leads (a "Mott quantum wire"). For the case of a strong periodic potential, the conductance is shown to…
We study the electronic transport through a quantum wire (QW) with a strong side coupled quantum dot (QD). We obtain a linear conductance with lateral peaks when the gate voltage, is located near the edge of the conduction band. The…
The contact conductance between graphene and two quantum wires which serve as the leads to connect graphene and electron reservoirs is theoretically studied. Our investigation indicates that the contact conductance depends sensitively on…
We make an overview of spectral-geometric effects of twisting and bending in quantum waveguides modelled by the Dirichlet Laplacian in an unbounded three-dimensional tube of uniform cross-section. We focus on the existence of Hardy-type…
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…
We study quantum mechanics on a curved wire by approximating the physics around the curved region by three parameters coming from the boundary conditions given by the two interval Sturm-Liouville theory. Since the geometric potential on a…
The complex ac-response of a quasi-one dimensional electron system in the one-band approximation with an interaction potential of finite range is investigated. It is shown that linear response is exact for this model. The influence of the…
One of the most celebrated accomplishments of modern physics is the description of fundamental principles of nature in the language of geometry. As the motion of celestial bodies is governed by the geometry of spacetime, the motion of…
We study the effect of Kerr type nonlinear medium in quantum state transfer. We have investigated the effect of different coupling schemes and Kerr medium parameters $p$ and $\omega_{{K}}$. We found that, the Kerr medium introduced in the…
We consider a phase-coherent system of two parallel quantum wires that are coupled via a tunneling barrier of finite length. The usual perturbative treatment of tunneling fails in this case, even in the diffusive limit, once the length L of…
The effects of Umklapp scattering on the zero-temperature conductance in one-dimensional quantum wires are reexamined by taking into account both the screening of external potential and the non-uniform chemical potential shift due to…
In transport experiments the quantum nature of matter becomes directly evident when changes in conductance occur only in discrete steps, with a size determined solely by Planck's constant h. The observations of quantized steps in the…
