Non-ohmic variable-range hopping transport in one-dimensional conductors.
We investigate theoretically the effect of a finite electric field on the resistivity of a disordered one-dimensional system in the variable-range hopping regime. We find that at low fields the transport is inhibited by rare fluctuations in the random distribution of localized states that create high-resistance breaks in the hopping network. As the field increases, the breaks become less resist...
متن کاملDiffusivity in One - Dimensional Generalized Mott Variable - Range Hopping Models
We consider random walks in a random environment which are generalized versions of well-known effective models for Mott variable-range hopping. We study the homogenized diffusion constant of the random walk in the one-dimensional case. We prove various estimates on the low-temperature behavior which confirm and extend previous work by physicists. 1. Introduction. Random walks among randomly dis...
متن کاملVariable-range hopping and quantum creep in one dimension.
We study the quantum nonlinear response to an applied electric field E of a one-dimensional pinned charge-density wave or Luttinger liquid in the presence of disorder. From an explicit construction of low-lying metastable states and of bounce instanton solutions between them, we demonstrate quantum creep v=e(-c/E(1/2)) as well as a sharp crossover at E=E(*) towards a linear response form consis...
متن کاملCorrelated Electron Transport in One-dimensional Mesoscopic Conductors
Mesoscopic systems have emerged as a result of advanced microfabrication processing. These systems provide a new playground where tailor-made structures are available. This enables the study of quantum phenomena due to dimensional confinement and manipulation of system geometries. Two specific systems are investigated in this dissertation: single-walled carbon nanotubes and quantum point contac...
متن کاملQuantum creep and variable-range hopping of one-dimensional interacting electrons
The variable range hopping results for noninteracting electrons of Mott and Shklovskii are generalized to one-dimensional disordered charge density waves and Luttinger liquids using an instanton approach. Following a recent paper by Nattermann, Giamarchi, and Le Doussal [Nattermann, Giamarchi, and Le Doussal [Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 56603 (2003)] we calculate the quantum creep of charges at zero t...
