Conductance Increase by Electron-Phonon Interaction in Quantum Wires

Abstract

We investigate the influence of electron-phonon interactions on the DC-conductance $\Gamma$ of a quantum wire in the limit of one occupied subband. At zero temperature, a Tomonaga-Luttinger-like renormalization of $\Gamma$ to a value slightly larger than $2e^2/h$ is calculated for a realistic quantum wire model.
