Comparing conductance quantization in quantum wires and Quantum Hall systems [PDF]
Physical Review B, 1996 We propose a new calculation of the DC conductance of a 1-dimensional electron system described by the Luttinger model. Our approach is based on the ideas of Landauer and B\"{u}ttiker and on the methods of current algebra. We analyse in detail the way in

Quantum conductance and electrical resistivity [PDF]
Physics Letters A, 2006 The Landauer formula for quantum conductance, based on the modern paradigm: "conduction is transmission", is generalized to samples of macroscopic size. Two regimes of electrical conduction, namely diffusive and ballistic ones, are studied. In the former regime, Drude's formula for the electrical resistivity is recovered and it is found a maximum ...

Conductance of Fully Equilibrated Quantum Wires [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2009 We study the conductance of a quantum wire in the presence of weak electron-electron scattering. In a sufficiently long wire the scattering leads to full equilibration of the electron distribution function in the frame moving with the electric current. At non-zero temperature this equilibrium distribution differs from the one supplied by the leads.

Fluctuation Theorem in Quantum Heat Conduction [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2007 We consider steady state heat conduction across a quantum harmonic chain connected to reservoirs modelled by infinite collection of oscillators. The heat, $Q$, flowing across the oscillator in a time interval $ $ is a stochastic variable and we study the probability distribution function $P(Q)$.

Quantum Interference in Coherent Molecular Conductance [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2009 Coherent electronic transport through individual molecules is crucially sensitive to quantum interference. Using exact diagonalization techniques, we investigate the zero-bias and zero-temperature conductance through $ $-conjugated annulene molecules (modeled by the Pariser-Parr-Pople and Hubbard Hamiltonians) weakly coupled to two leads.

Quantum conductance staircase of holes in silicon nanosandwiches
Modern Electronic Materials, 2017 The results of studying the quantum conductance staircase of holes in one-dimensional channels obtained by the split-gate method inside silicon nanosandwiches that are the ultra-narrow quantum well confined by the delta barriers heavily doped with boron ...

The Effect of Anchor Group on the Phonon Thermal Conductance of Single Molecule Junctions
Applied Sciences, 2021 There is a worldwide race to convert waste heat to useful energy using thermoelectric materials. Molecules are attractive candidates for thermoelectricity because they can be synthesised with the atomic precision, and intriguing properties due to quantum

Nonlinear conductance of long quantum wires at a conductance plateau transition: Where does the voltage drop? [PDF]
, 2012 We calculate the linear and nonlinear conductance of spinless fermions in clean, long quantum wires where short-ranged interactions lead locally to equilibration.
