Quantum Transport in Semiconductor Nanostructures
by C.W.J. Beenakker, H. van Houten
Publisher: arXiv 2004
Number of pages: 111
Description:
In this review we present a self-contained account of three novel transport regimes in semiconductor nanostructures. The experimental and theoretical developments in this field have developed hand in hand, a fruitful balance that we have tried to maintain here as well.
