Quantum Transport
Abstract
During the period April 15, 1992 to April 14, 1993, research carried out by the Nanostructures Group in the Department of Electrical Engineering at Notre Dame was concerned with a variety of quantum transport in mesoscopic structures. This research was funded by the Air Force office of Scientific Research under Grant No. AFOSR-91-0211. The major issues examined included quantum transport in high magnetic fields and modulated channels. Coulomb- coupled quantum dot systems, transmission resonances and zeroes in resonant transport, self-consistent Hartree calculations of transport, lateral quantum wires an pn-junction formation, quantum magnetotransport in disordered systems, magnetoelectric states in quantum wires, anomalous magnetoresistance, electromigration, collision retardation and phonon effects in hot-electron transport, spin-polarized single electronics, single-particle lifetimes in quasi-1D structures, quantum transport experiments in metals, the mesoscopic photovoltaic effect, and new techniques for fabricating quantum structures in semiconductors.
