I am an associate professor working with experimental low temperature quantum transport at the Center for Quantum Devices. Read more >> My research focuses on the physics of semiconductor nanowires couples to superconductors and on mesoscopic phenomena in strongly correlated electron systems emerging at the interfaces of complex oxide. This book gives a thorough account of the theory of electronic transport in such mesoscopic systems. After an initial chapter covering fundamental concepts, the transmission function formalism is presented, and used to describe three key topics in mesoscopic physics: the quantum Hall effect; localisation; and double-barrier by:

This book, written by leading experts in the field, covers such topics as the Kondo effect, electron transport, disorder and quantum coherence with electron-electron interaction, persistent current and thermoelectric phenomena, in quantum dots, quantum wires, carbon nanotubes and more. electron solid g deville e y andrei and f i b williams electron transport on a buy two dimensional of physics in low dimensional electron systems in semiconductor heterostructures oxide interfaces quantum wells and superlattices quantum wires and dots and emerging phenomena such as two. This graduate textbook provides an in-depth description of the transport phenomena relevant to systems of nanoscale dimensions. In this textbook the different theoretical approaches are critically discussed, with emphasis on their basic assumptions and : Massimiliano Di Ventra.

Later chapters describe experiments with the Wagner crystal, and discuss the many-electron theory of transport of a 2D non-degenerate system, transport phenomena, experiments on the out-of-plane motion of electrons, non-linear and polaronic effects, the effects of disorder on transport properties, and properties of the 2D non-degenerate system.   The different aspects of the balance equation method, originally proposed by C S Ting and the author of the present book, were reviewed in the volume entitled Physics of Hot Electron Transport in Semiconductors (edited by C S Ting, World Scientific, ). Since then, this method has been extensively developed and applied to various new fields. Correlation Phenomena, Collective Modes in Low Dimensional Systems & X. L. Lei. ().
