Quantum ballistic transport in constrictions of n-PbTe
Conductance of submicron constrictions of PbTe:Bi was studied up to 8 T and between 4.2 K and 50 mK. The structures were fabricated by electron beam lithography and chemical etching of high-electron mobility films grown by molecular beam epitaxy on BaF2. In the moderately strong magnetic fields perpendicular to the current, B>1 T, the conductance shows accurate quantization in the units of 1e/h...
متن کاملImaging magnetoelectric subbands in ballistic constrictions
We perform scanning gate experiments on ballistic constrictions in the presence of small perpendicular magnetic fields. The constrictions form the entrance and exit of a circular gate-defined ballistic stadium. Close to constrictions we observe sets of regular fringes creating a checker board pattern. Inside the stadium conductance fluctuations governed by chaotic dynamics of electrons are visi...
متن کاملQuantum transport of composite fermions in narrow constrictions
We elaborate on a single-mode description of the ballistic charge transport through a narrow constriction in a compressible (composite fermion) Quantum Hall liquid. In the presence of long-range Coulomb interactions we find logarithmic deviations from the Luttinger liquid behavior. These extra logarithmic factors are shown to modify the conductance, shot noise spectrum, and other observables.
متن کاملBallistic spin transport without net charge transport in quantum wells
We demonstrate the ballistic transport of electron spin in the absence of net transport of electron charge. Spin-up electrons move in one direction, while an equal number of spin-down electrons move with the same velocities in the opposite direction, yielding no net charge motion. This effect, also referred to as a ‘pure’ spin current, results from the quantum mechanical interference of the tra...
متن کاملQuantum transport through ballistic cavities: soft vs hard quantum chaos
We study transport through a two-dimensional billiard attached to two infinite leads by numerically calculating the Landauer conductance and the Wigner time delay. In the generic case of a mixed phase space we find a power-law distribution of resonance widths and a power-law dependence of conductance increments apparently reflecting the classical dwell time exponent, in striking difference to t...
