We consider the ballistic transport of quasiparticles with exclusion statistics through a 1D wire within the Landauer-Büttiker approach. We demonstrate that quasiparticle transport coefficients (electrical and heat conductance, as well as thermopower) are determined by the same general formulae as for particles with normal statistics. By applying the developed formalism to the ballistic transpo...

Electronic transport in ferromagnetic ballistic conductors is predicted to exhibit ballistic anisotropic magnetoresistance-a change in the ballistic conductance with the direction of magnetization. This phenomenon originates from the effect of the spin-orbit interaction on the electronic band structure which leads to a change in the number of bands crossing the Fermi energy when the magnetizati...

We present a modeling scheme for simulating ballistic hole transport in thin-body fully depleted silicon-on-insulator pMOSFETs. The scheme includes all of the quantum effects associated with hole confinement and also accounts for valence band nonparabolicity approximately. This simulator is used to examine the effects of hole quantization on device performance by simulating a thin (1.5-nm) and ...

The scaling of device technologies poses new challenges, not only in circuit design, but also in device modeling, especially because of the short-channel effects and the emergence of novel phenomena like ballistic transport. Nonetheless, it enables the design of ultra low-power analog and Radio Frequency (RF) circuits by allowing to push the operating points into moderate and eventually weak in...

We ana/lyze the performance of a recently reported Ge/Si core/shell nanowire transistor using a semiclassical, ballistic transport model and an sp3d5s* tight-binding treatment of the electronic structure. Comparison of the measured performance of the device with the effects of series resistance removed to the simulated result assuming ballistic transport shows that the experimental device opera...

We present a comprehensive account of directed transport in one-dimensional Hamiltonian systems with spatial and temporal periodicity. They can be considered as Hamiltonian ratchets in the sense that ensembles of particles can show directed ballistic transport in the absence of an average force. We discuss general conditions for such directed transport like a mixed classical phase space. A sum ...

Progress in manufacturing technology has allowed us to probe the behavior of devices on a smaller and faster scale than ever before. With increasing miniaturization, quantum effects come to dominate the transport properties of these devices, between collisions, carriers undergo ballistic motion under the influence of local electric and magnetic fields. The often surprising properties of quantum...

A generalized enhanced Fourier law (EFL) that accounts for quasiballistic phonon transport effects in a formulation entirely in terms of physical observables is derived from the Boltzmann transport equation. It generalizes the previously reported EFL from a gray phonon population to an arbitrary quasi-ballistic phonon mode population, the chief advantage being its formulation in terms of observ...
