the paper deal with non-commutative geometry. the notion of quantumspheres was introduced by podles. here we define the quantum hermitianmetric on the quantum spaces and find it for the quantum spheres.

We describe the effects of geometric torsion on the coherent motion of electrons along a thin twisted quantum ring. The geometric torsion inherent in the quantum ring triggers a quantum phase shift in the electrons' eigenstates, thereby resulting in a torsion-induced persistent current that flows along the twisted quantum ring. The physical conditions required for detecting the current flow are...

Directed classical current that increases linearly with time without using a biased external field is obtained in a simple model Hamiltonian system derived from a modified kicked rotor model, by breaking the spatial symmetry of the transporting regular islands in the classical phase space. A parallel study of the corresponding quantum dynamics suggests that although quantum coherence effects su...

objective(s):  medicinal benefits of quantum dots have been proved in recent years but there is little known about their toxicity especially in vivo toxicity. in order to use quantum dots in medical applications, studies ontheir in vivo toxicity is important.  materials and methods:cdse:zns quantum dots were injected in 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg doses to male mice10 days later, mice were sacrificed ...

In a quantum ratchet accelerator system, a linearly increasing directed current can be dynamically generated without using a biased field. Generic quantum ratchet acceleration with full classical chaos [J. B. Gong and P. Brumer, Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 240602 (2006)] constitutes a new element of quantum chaos and an interesting violation of a sum rule of classical ratchet transport. Here we propos...

Cold-atom systems offer a great potential for the future design of new mesoscopic quantum systems with properties that are fundamentally different from semiconductor nanostructures. Here, we investigate the quantum-gas analogue of a quantum wire and find a new scenario for the quantum transport: Attractive interactions may lead to a complete suppression of current in the low-bias range, a total...

Since its first discovery in 2004, graphene has been found to host a plethora of unusual electronic transport phenomena, making it a fascinating system for fundamental studies in condensed matter physics as well as offering tremendous opportunities for future electronic and sensing devices. Typically, electronic transport in graphene has been investigated via resistivity measurements; however, ...

Novel effects and phenomena that are not found at macroscopic length scales characterize the behavior of matter at the nanoscale. Electronic transport is a prominent example. When the spatial dimensions of a device are of the order of the electron wavelength, special features appear such as quantized conductance and ballistic transport. These phenomena are at the basis of molecular electronics ...

In this letter a screening current or contour representation is given of certain quantum superalgebras. The Gomez-Sierra construction of quantum groups in conformal field theory is generalized to cover superalgebras and illustrated using recent results on screening currents in affine current superalgebra.

In a previous work, we described transport in a classical, externally driven, overdamped ratchet. A transport current arises under two possible conditions: either by increasing the external driving or by adding an optimal amount of noise when the system operates below threshold. In this work, we study the underdamped case. In order to obtain transport it is necessary for the presence of both — ...
