Tunneling transverse to a magnetic field and its occurrence in correlated 2D electron systems.

چکیده
We investigate tunneling decay in a magnetic field. Because of broken time-reversal symmetry, the standard WKB technique does not apply. The decay rate and the outcoming wave packet are found from the analysis of the set of the particle Hamiltonian trajectories and its singularities in complex space. The results are applied to tunneling from a strongly correlated 2D electron system in a magnetic field parallel to the layer. We show in a simple model that electron correlations strongly affect the tunneling rate.

Tunneling from a correlated two-dimensional electron system transverse to a magnetic field
We show that in a magnetic field parallel to a two-dimensional ~2D! electron layer, strong electron correlations can change the rate of tunneling from the layer to the 3D continuum exponentially. It leads to a specific density dependence of the escape rate. The mechanism is a dynamical Mössbauer-type recoil, in which the Hall momentum of the tunneling electron is partly transferred to the whole...
متن کاملEnhancement of tunneling from a correlated 2D electron system by a many-electron Mössbauer-type recoil in a magnetic field.
We consider the effect of electron correlations on tunneling from a 2D electron layer in a magnetic field parallel to the layer. A tunneling electron can exchange its momentum with other electrons, which leads to an exponential increase of the tunneling rate compared to the single-electron approximation. The effect depends on the interrelation between the dynamics of tunneling and momentum exch...
متن کامل2D-Magnetic Field and Biaxiall In-Plane Pre-Load Effects on the Vibration of Double Bonded Orthotropic Graphene Sheets
In this study, thermo-nonlocal vibration of double bonded graphene sheet (DBGS) subjected to 2D-magnetic field under biaxial in-plane pre-load are presented. The elastic forces between layers of graphene sheet (GS) are taken into account by Pasternak foundation and the classical plate theory (CLPT) and continuum orthotropic elastic plate are used. The nonlocal theory of Eringen and Maxwell’s re...
متن کاملUniversal Linear Density of States for Tunneling into the Two-Dimensional Electron Gas in a Magnetic Field
We have developed a technique capable of measuring the tunneling current into both localized and conducting states in a 2D electron system. I-V characteristics for tunneling are obtained with no distortions arising from low 2D in-plane conductivity. In a perpendicular magnetic field, a pseudogap develops in the tunneling density of states at the Fermi energy. We resolve a linear energy dependen...
متن کاملRoom Temperature Hydrogen Sensor Based on Single-Electron Tunneling Between Palladium Nanoparticles
In this paper, we present the results of single-electron tunneling in two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal closed packed arrays of palladium nanoparticles. After inspecting the emergence of Coulomb blockade phenomena, we demonstrate the possibilities of using these arrays as a single-electron tunneling based hydrogen sensor. We assumed arrays of palladium nanoparticles with diameters of 3.5 and 6...
