The variety of nanowire crystal structures gave rise to unique and novel transport phenomena. In particular, we have explored the superlattice profile generated by strain field modulation in twinplane nanowires for the tuning of transport channels and the built-in spin-orbit potential profile of polytypic nanowires, in order to realize a spin filter. The Multicomponent Scattering Approach has been used in terms of the Transfer Matrix Method to describe the phase-time of charge carriers. This system showed advantages for attaining conditions for the propagation of wave packets with negative group velocity. Moreover, the spin transport effect of a potential profile with volumetric spin-orbit bulk inversion asymmetry, as present on polytypic nanowires, was described through the Reverse Runge-Kutta Method. Using the peculiar symmetry of the excited states we have characterized a dominant spin dependence on structural parameters that results in effective spin filtering.
We investigated the magnetotransport of InAs nanowires grown by selective area metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy. In the temperature range between 0.5 and 30 K reproducible fluctuations in the conductance upon variation of the magnetic field or the b
We study the effects caused by Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling over the thermoelectric transport properties of a single-electron transistor, viz., a quantum dot connected to one-dimensional leads. Using linear response theory and employing
Electron transfer (ET) in biological molecules such as peptides and proteins consists of electrons moving between well defined localized states (donors to acceptors) through a tunneling process. Here we present an analytical model for ET by tunneling
We study theoretically the low-energy hole states of Ge/Si core/shell nanowires. The low-energy valence band is quasidegenerate, formed by two doublets of different orbital angular momenta, and can be controlled via the relative shell thickness and v
In this note we summarize our recent results for the temperature dependence of transport coefficients of metallic films in the presence of spin-orbit coupling. Our focus is on (i) the spin Nernst and the thermal Edelstein effects, and (ii) the phonon
