The interaction between light and matter can be controlled efficiently by structuring materials
at a length scale shorter than the wavelength of interest. With the goal to build optical …

Modern nanotechnology allows one to scale down various important devices (sensors,
chips, fibers, etc.) and thus opens up new horizons for their applications. The efficiency of …

This textbook describes the physics of semiconductor nanostructures with emphasis on their
electronic transport properties. At its heart are five fundamental transport phenomena …

The Hamiltonian H eff of an open quantum system consists formally of a first-order
interaction term describing the closed (isolated) system with discrete states and a second …

We present an analogy of Fano resonances in quantum interference to classical resonances
in the harmonic oscillator system. It has a manifestation as a coupled behaviour of two …

We study the electronic transport through a double-quantum dot molecule attached to leads
and examine the transition from a configuration in series to a symmetrical parallel geometry …

We report a transport experiment on the Fano effect in a quantum connecting wire with a
side-coupled quantum dot (QD). The Fano resonance occurs between the QD and the “T …

Characterized by bulk Dirac or Weyl cones and surface Fermi-arc states, topological
semimetals have sparked enormous research interest in recent years. The nanostructures …

We investigate a tunable Fano interferometer consisting of a quantum dot coupled via
tunneling to a one-dimensional channel. In addition to Fano resonance, the channel shows …

With the help of the Green function technique and the equation of motion approach, the
electronic transport through a parallel-coupled double quantum dot (DQD) is theoretically …
