Itinerant nature of atom-magnetization excitation by tunneling electrons.
We have performed single-atom magnetization curve (SAMC) measurements and inelastic scanning tunneling spectroscopy (ISTS) on individual Fe atoms on a Cu(111) surface. The SAMCs show a broad distribution of magnetic moments with 3.5 μB being the mean value. ISTS reveals a magnetization excitation with a lifetime of 200 fsec which decreases by a factor of 2 upon application of a magnetic field o...
متن کاملLifetime of two-dimensional electrons measured by tunneling spectroscopy.
For electrons tunneling between parallel two-dimensional electron systems , conservation of in-plane momentum produces sharply resonant current-voltage characteristics and provides a uniquely sensitive probe of the underlying electronic spectral functions. We report here the application of this technique to accurate measurements of the temperature dependence of the electron-electron scattering ...
متن کاملDamping of vertical coronal loop kink oscillations through wave tunneling
The decay rate of vertical kink waves in a curved flux tube is modeled numerically. The full MHD equations are solved for a curved equilibrium flux tube in an arcade geometry and the decay of ψ, the integral over the flux tube of the modulus of the velocity perpendicular to the local magnetic field, is measured. These simulations are 2D and are thus restricted to kink oscillations in the loop p...
متن کاملBound states of tunneling electrons in molecular chains
We have studied the bound states of the extra electron in a molecular chain corresponding to the physical situation of the electron tunneling through the system. The bound-state spectrum is obtained using the formalism of the multiple scattering theory MST . The subbarrier scattering operators, the fundamental building blocks of MST, are evaluated within the variational asymptotic method which ...
متن کاملResonant tunneling of interacting electrons in a one-dimensional wire.
We consider the conductance of a one-dimensional wire interrupted by a double-barrier structure allowing for a resonant level. Using the electron-electron interaction strength as a small parameter, we are able to build a nonperturbative analytical theory of the conductance valid in a broad region of temperatures and for a variety of the barrier parameters. We find that the conductance may have ...
