N ov 2 00 3 Temperature dependence of electron transport through a quantum shuttle
نویسنده
چکیده
We analyze electron transport through a quantum shuttle for the applied voltage below the instability threshold. We obtain current-voltage characteristics of this system and show that at low temperature they exhibit pronounced steps. The temperature dependence of the current is calculated in the range from 2K to 300K and it demonstrates a wide variety of behavior from 1/T decreasing to an exponential growth depending on how deep the shuttle is in quantum regime. The results obtained are compared to experimental data on electron transport through long molecules. 85.85.+j, 73.61.Ph, 73.63.-b, 03.65.Yz Typeset using REVTEX

Effect of asymmetric quantum dot rings in electron transport through a quantum wire
The electronic conductance at zero temperature through a quantum wire with side-connected asymmetric quantum ring (as a scatter system) is theoretically studied using the non-interacting Hamiltonian Anderson tunneling method. In this paper we concentrate on the configuration of the quantum dot rings. We show that the asymmetric structure of QD-scatter system strongly influences the amplitude an...

متن کاملشبیه سازی اثر بی نظمی و میدان مغناطیسی بر ترابرد کوانتومی نانوساختارهای دو بعدی مدل شده با تقریب تنگابست
In recent years, semiconductor nanostructures have become the model systems of choice for investigation of electrical conduction on short length scales. Quantum transport is studied in a two dimensional electron gas because of the combination of a large Fermi wavelength and large mean free path. In the present work, a numerical method is implemented in order to contribute to the understanding ...
متن کاملN ov 2 00 4 Selective electron transfer between the quantum dots under the resonant pulse
The coherent quantum dynamics of an electron in the quantum-dot ring structure under the resonant electromagnetic pulse is studied theoretically. A possibility of the selective electron transfer between any two dots is demonstrated. The transfer probability as a function of the pulse and dot parameters is calculated. It is shown that this probability can be close to unity. The factors lowering ...
