ELECTRON TRANSPORT IN STRONGLY CORRELATED NANOSTRUCTURES

Electronic thermal transport in strongly correlated multilayered nanostructures

The formalism for a linear-response many-body treatment of the electronic contributions to thermal transport is developed for multilayered nanostructures. By properly determining the local heat-current operator, it is possible to show that the Jonson-Mahan theorem for the bulk can be extended to inhomogeneous problems, so the various thermal-transport coefficient integrands are related by power...

Transport in strongly correlated two dimensional electron fluids

We present an overview of the measured transport properties of the two dimensional electron fluids in high mobility semiconductor devices with low electron densities, and of some of the theories that have been proposed to account for them. Many features of the observations are not easily reconciled with a description based on the well understood physics of weakly interacting quasiparticles in a...

Electron Transport in Strongly Correlated Quantum Dots, Wires and Films

Hot electron transport in a strongly correlated transition-metal oxide

Oxide heterointerfaces are ideal for investigating strong correlation effects to electron transport, relevant for oxide-electronics. Using hot-electrons, we probe electron transport perpendicular to the La₀.₇Sr₀.₃MnO₃ (LSMO)- Nb-doped SrTiO₃ (Nb:STO) interface and find the characteristic hot-electron attenuation length in LSMO to be 1.48 ± 0.10 unit cells (u.c.) at -1.9 V, increasing to 2.02 ± ...
