Tunable order of helically confined charges

A Siemens, P Schmelcher - Physical Review E, 2020 - APS
We investigate a system of equally charged Coulomb-interacting particles confined to a
toroidal helix in the presence of an external electric field. Due to the confinement, the …

Double-gated nanohelix as a novel tunable binary superlattice

TP Collier, ME Portnoi - Nanoscale Research Letters, 2019 - Springer
We theoretically investigate the problem of an electron confined to a nanohelix between two
parallel gates modelled as charged wires. The double-gated nanohelix system is a binary …
