We calculate the electronic width of quantum wires as a function of their lithographic width in analogy to experiments performed on nanostructures defined by local oxidation of Ga[Al]As heterostructures. Two--dimensional simulations of two parallel oxide lines on top of a Ga[Al]As heterostructure defining a quantum wire are carried out in the framework of Density Functional Theory in the Local Density Approximation and are found to be in agreement with measurements. Quantitative assessment of the influence of various experimental uncertainties is given. The most influential parameter turns out to be the oxide line depth, followed by its exact shape and the effect of background doping (in decreasing order).

We report on transport signatures of hidden quantum Hall stripe (hQHS) phases in high ($N > 2$) half-filled Landau levels of Al$_{x}$Ga$_{1-x}$As/Al$_{0.24}$Ga$_{0.76}$As quantum wells with varying Al mole fraction $x < 10^{-3}$. Residing between the
conventional stripe phases (lower $N$) and the isotropic liquid phases (higher $N$), where resistivity decreases as $1/N$, these hQHS phases exhibit isotropic and $N$-independent resistivity. Using the experimental phase diagram we establish that the stripe phases are more robust than theoretically predicted, calling for improved theoretical treatment. We also show that, unlike conventional stripe phases, the hQHS phases do not occur in ultrahigh mobility GaAs quantum wells, but are likely to be found in other systems.
We report on transport signatures of eight distinct bubble phases in the $N=3$ Landau level of a Al$_{x}$Ga$_{1-x}$As/Al$_{0.24}$Ga$_{0.76}$As quantum well with $x = 0.0015$. These phases occur near partial filling factors $ u^star approx 0.2,(0.8)$
and $ u^star approx 0.3,(0.7)$ and have $M = 2$ and $M = 3$ electrons (holes) per bubble, respectively. We speculate that a small amount of alloy disorder in our sample helps to distinguish these broken symmetry states in low-temperature transport measurements.
The electron-electron interaction quantum correction to the conductivity of the gated double well Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$As/GaAs structures is investigated experimentally. The analysis of the temperature and magnetic field dependences of the conductivity te
nsor allows us to obtain reliably the diffusion part of the interaction correction for the regimes when the structure is balanced and when only one quantum well is occupied. The surprising result is that the interaction correction does not reveal resonant behavior; it is practically the same for both regimes.
We report the observation of hole cyclotron resonance (CR) in InMnAs/(Al,Ga)Sb heterostructures in a wide temperature range covering both the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic phases. We observed two pronounced resonances that exhibit drastic changes in
position, linewidth, and intensity at a temperature higher than the Curie temperature, indicating possible local magnetic ordering or clustering. We attribute the two resonances to the fundamental CR transitions expected for delocalized valence-band holes in the quantum limt. Using an 8-band {bf k$cdot$p} model, which incorporates ferromagnetism within a mean-field approximation, we show that the temperature-dependent CR peak shift is a direct measure of the carrier-Mn exchange interaction. Significant line narrowing was observed at low temperatures, which we interpret as the suppression of localized spin fluctuations.
We report the effect of the insertion of an InP/In$_{0.53}$Ga$_{47}$As Interface on Rashba spin-orbit interaction in In$_{0.52}$Al$_{0.48}$As/In$_{0.53}$Ga$_{0.47}$As quantum wells. A small spin split-off energy in InP produces a very intriguing band
lineup in the valence bands in this system. With or without this InP layer above the In$_{0.53}$Ga$_{47}$As well, the overall values of the spin-orbit coupling constant $alpha$ turned out to be enhanced or diminished for samples with the front- or back-doping position, respectively. These experimental results, using weak antilocalization analysis, are compared with the results of the $mathbf{kcdot p}$ theory. The actual conditions of the interfaces and materials should account for the quantitative difference in magnitude between the measurements and calculations.
