Magneto-optics of electronic transport in nanowires

چکیده
Effects of irradiation on the electronic conductance in nanowires, for field-free conditions and under the influence of applied longitudinal magnetic fields, were investigated. The nanowires were modeled within the free-electron framework with a parabolic ~transverse! confining potential. Our results for the dependence of the photoconductance of irradiated nanowires on the photon energy and/or the strength of the applied magnetic field show that such measurements may be used as a magneto-optic spectroscopy for determination of ~i! the electron Fermi energy, ~ii! the electron effective mass, and ~iii! the number of quantized modes in the nanowire. Such measurements may also be used to assess to what degree the electron transport through the nanowire is adiabatic. Furthermore, our results suggest a method for controlling and tuning electronic transport in nanowires via external electromagnetic fields. @S0163-1829~98!07348-2#

Quantum Interference Control of Ballistic Magneto- resistance in a Magnetic Nanowire Containing Two Atomic- Size Domain Walls
The magnetoresistance of a one-dimensional electron gas in a metallic ferromagnetic nanowire containing two atomic-size domain walls has been investigated in the presence of spin-orbit interaction. The magnetoresistance is calculated in the ballistic regime, within the Landauer-Büttiker formalism. It has been demonstrated that the conductance of a magnetic nanowire with double domain walls...
متن کاملMagneto-optical properties of nickel nanowire arrays
We report on the magneto-optical properties of hexagonally arranged Ni nanowires embedded in anodic alumina templates. Due to the nanowire geometry, these samples show different response depending on the polarization orientation of the incident light, which leads to a high anisotropy of both their optical and magneto-optical properties. A strong increase of the magneto-optical activity is clear...

Experimental demonstrations of one-dimensional (1D) van der Waals material tellurium (Te) have been presented by Raman spectroscopy under strain and magneto-transport. Raman spectroscopy measurements have been performed under strains along different principle axes. Pronounced strain response along the c-axis is observed due to the strong intrachain covalent bonds, while no strain response is ob...
متن کاملMorphological evolution, growth mechanism, and magneto-transport properties of silver telluride one-dimensional nanostructures
Single crystalline one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures of silver telluride (Ag2Te) with well-controlled shapes and sizes were synthesized via the hydrothermal reduction of sodium tellurite (Na2TeO3) in a mixed solution. The morphological evolution of various 1D nanostructures was mainly determined by properly controlling the nucleation and growth process of Ag2Te in different reaction times. Ba...
