چکیده

We have studied nonlinear effects in the resistance of a two-dimensional system with a large localization length on both sides of the crossover from weak to strong localization. It is shown that nonlinearity in the hopping regime is due to electron overheating rather than the field effects. This qualitatively new behavior is a signature of a two-dimensional hopping transport with a large localization length.

رسانندگی الکترونی سیم‌های مولکولی پلی‌پیرول (PPy) و ظهور پدیده فانو رزونانس

In this paper, we studied the electronic conductance of a polypyrrole polymer, which is embedded between two semi-infinite simple chains by using Green’s function technique in tight-binding approach. We first reduced the center polymer to a one dimensional chain with renormalized onsite and hopping energies by renormalization method. Then, we calculated the system conductivity as a function of ...

  In this paper, the electron localization length was calculated numerically in a one-dimensional chain of atoms with random binary alloy. It is shown that in a one-dimensional finite-size chian of atoms, the localization length of the electron wave function decreases with increasing impurity concentration and with more increasing of the impurity concentration, the localization length becomes s...

شبیه سازی اثر بی نظمی و میدان مغناطیسی بر ترابرد کوانتومی نانوساختارهای دو بعدی مدل شده با تقریب تنگابست

 In recent years, semiconductor nanostructures have become the model systems of choice for investigation of electrical conduction on short length scales. Quantum transport is studied in a two dimensional electron gas because of the combination of a large Fermi wavelength and large mean free path. In the present work, a numerical method is implemented in order to contribute to the understanding ...

Delocalization of tightly bound excitons in disordered systems

The localization length of a low energy tightly bound electron-hole pair (excitons) is calculated by exact diagonalization for small interacting disordered systems. The exciton localization length (which corresponds to the thermal electronic conductance) is strongly enhanced by electron-electron interactions, while the localization length (pertaining to the charge conductance) is only slightly ...

Temperature and magnetic field effects on electron transport through DNA molecules in a two-dimensional four-channel system.

We utilize a two-dimensional four-channel DNA model, with a tight-binding (TB) Hamiltonian, and investigate the temperature and the magnetic field dependence of the transport behavior of a short DNA molecule. Random variation of the hopping integrals due to the thermal structural disorder, which partially destroy phase coherence of electrons and reduce quantum interference, leads to a reduction...
