Zero-bias anomaly in one-dimensional tunneling contacts
We study the Coulomb interaction effects on the tunneling conductance of a contact constructed of two parallel quantum wires. The following contacts are considered: two clean identical quantum wires, two disordered identical quantum wires, and asymmetric contact of one clean and another disordered quantum wires. We show that the low-voltage anomaly of the tunneling conductance is less singular ...
متن کاملThe theory of the ”0.7 anomaly” in quantum point contacts
The phenomenology of the ”0.7 anomaly” in quantum point contacts is fully explained in terms of a quasi-localized state, which forms as the point contact opens up. Detailed numerical calculations within spin-density functional theory indeed confirm the emergence of such a state. Quantitative calculations of the conductance and the noise are obtained using a model based on these observations, an...
متن کاملElectron-phonon scattering in quantum point contacts.
We study the negative correction to the quantized value 2e(2)/h of the conductance of a quantum point contact due to the backscattering of electrons by acoustic phonons. The correction shows activated temperature dependence and also gives rise to a zero-bias anomaly in conductance. Our results are in qualitative agreement with recent experiments studying the 0.7 feature in the conductance of qu...
متن کاملElectron–electron interaction effects in quantum point contacts
We consider electron–electron interaction effects in quantum point contacts on the first quantization plateau, taking into account all scattering processes. We compute the low-temperature linear and nonlinear conductance, shot noise and thermopower, by perturbation theory and a self-consistent nonperturbative method. On the conductance plateau, the low-temperature corrections are solely due to ...
متن کاملBoundary-mediated electron-electron interactions in quantum point contacts.
An unusual increase of the conductance with temperature is observed in clean quantum point contacts for conductances larger than 2(e2/h). At the same time, a positive magnetoresistance arises at high temperatures. A model accounting for electron-electron interactions mediated by boundaries (scattering on Friedel oscillations) qualitatively describes the observation. It is supported by a numeric...
