We study the effect of the exchange interactions in small superconducting grains near the Coulomb blockade regime. We extend the standard description of the grain in terms of a single collective variable, the charge and its conjugated…
The rate-equation approach is used to describe sequential tunneling through a molecular junction in the Coulomb blockade regime. Such device is composed of molecular quantum dot (with discrete energy levels) coupled with two metallic…
The conductance through a finite quantum dot network is studied as a function of inter-dot coupling. As the coupling is reduced, the system undergoes a transition from the antidot regime to the tight binding limit, where Coulomb resonances…
We consider a metallic wire coupled to two metallic electrodes via two junctions placed nearby. A bias voltage applied to one of such junctions alters the electron distribution function in the wire in the vicinity of another junction thus…
We study the way back-scattering electron--electron interaction generates Coulomb drag between quantum wires with different densities. At low temperature $T$ the system can undergo a commensurate-- incommensurate transition as the potential…
We study the effect of the electron-electron interaction on the transport of spin polarized currents in metals and doped semiconductors in the diffusive regime. In addition to well-known screening effects, we identify two additional…
In a one dimensional electron gas at low enough density, the magnetic (spin) exchange energy $J$ between neighboring electrons is exponentially suppressed relative to the characteristic charge energy, the Fermi energy $E_F$. At non-zero…
The transport properties of a tunnel barrier in a one-dimensional wire are investigated at finite voltages and temperatures. We generalize the Luttinger model to account for finite ranges of the interaction. This leads to deviations from…
A weakly bound electron in a semiconductor quantum wire is shown to become entangled with an itinerant electron via the coulomb interaction. The degree of entanglement and its variation with energy of the injected electron, may be tuned by…
We use a generalized master equation (GME) to describe the nonequilibrium magnetotransport of interacting electrons through a broad finite quantum wire with an embedded ring structure. The finite quantum wire is weakly coupled to two broad…
Single-electron tunneling through a zero-dimensional state in an asymmetric double-barrier resonant-tunneling structure is studied. The broadening of steps in the $I$--$V$ characteristics is found to strongly depend on the polarity of the…
Spin dependent single electron tunneling in a ferromagnetic double junction is investigated theoretically in the limit of incoherent sequential tunneling. The junction consists of a small nonmagnetic metallic grain with discrete energy…
Electron interactions in and between wires become increasingly complex and important as circuits are scaled to nanometre sizes, or employ reduced-dimensional conductors like carbon nanotubes, nanowires and gated high mobility 2D electron…
Electrical conduction through a two-terminal molecular device is studied using non-equilibrium Green's functions (NEGF) formalism. Such junction is made of a short linear wire which is connected to the metallic electrodes. Molecule itself…
We calculate non-perturbatively the inelastic effects on the conductance through a conjugated molecular wire-metal heterojunction, including realistic electron-phonon coupling. We show that at sub-band-gap energies the current is dominated…
We study theoretically the effects of long-range and on-site Coulomb interactions on the topological phases and transport properties of spin-orbit-coupled quasi-one-dimensional quantum wires imposed on an s-wave superconductor. The…
Tunnel transport of interacting spin-polarized electrons through a single-level vibrating quantum dot in external magnetic field is studied. By using density matrix method, the current-voltage characteristics and the dependence of…
We have measured the collective excitation spectrum of interacting electrons in one-dimension. The experiment consists of controlling the energy and momentum of electrons tunneling between two clean and closely situated, parallel quantum…
We analyze electron transport through relatively short coherent conductors in the presence of Coulomb interaction. We evaluate the current-voltage characteristics of such conductors taking into account the effect of an external environment.…
We study the transport properties of a long non-uniform quantum wire where the electron-electron interactions and the density vary smoothly at large length scales. We show that these inhomogeneities lead to a finite resistivity of the wire,…
