Electron correlations in metal nanoparticles with spin-orbit scattering
Denis A. Gorokhov, Piet W. Brouwer
The combined effect of electron-electron interactions and spin-orbit scattering in metal nanoparticles can be studied by measuring splitting of electron levels in magnetic field ($…
Ultrasharp Crossover from Quantum to Classical Decay in a Quantum Dot Flanked by a Double-Barrier Tunneling Structure
Denis A. Gorokhov, Rava A. da Silveira
The decay of metastable states is dominated by quantum tunneling at low temperatures and by thermal activation at high temperatures. The escape rate of a particle out of a square w…
Tunable Magnetic Relaxation In Magnetic Nanoparticles
Xavier Waintal, Piet W. Brouwer
We investigate the magnetization dynamics of a conducting magnetic nanoparticle weakly coupled to source and drain electrodes, under the assumption that all relaxation comes from e…
Weak localization and conductance fluctuations in a quantum dot with parallel magnetic field and spin-orbit scattering
Jan-Hein Cremers, Piet W. Brouwer, Vladimir I. Falko
In the presence of both spin-orbit scattering and a magnetic field the conductance of a chaotic GaAs quantum dot displays quite a rich behavior. Using a Hamiltonian derived by Alei…
Vibrational sidebands and dissipative tunneling in molecular transistors
Stephan Braig, Karsten Flensberg
Transport through molecular devices with strong coupling to a single vibrational mode is considered in the case where the vibration is damped by coupling to the environment. We foc…
Conductance Peak Height Correlations for a Coulomb-Blockaded Quantum Dot in a Weak Magnetic Field
Stephan Braig, Shaffique Adam, Piet W. Brouwer
We consider statistical correlations between the heights of conductance peaks corresponding to two different levels in a Coulomb-blockaded quantum dot. Correlations exist for two p…
