[2] Research Topics

Two-dimensional systems with superb quality can be achieved at semiconductor heterostructures. Further, recent development in lithography technology has enabled the fabrication of quantum structures such as quantum wires, dots, antidots, etc. They are usually called mesoscopic systems since their dimension is much larger than microscopic scale but much smaller than microscopic scale. In such man-made low dimensional systems, quantum effects as well as those of many-body electron-electron interactions manifest themselves directly in transport phenomena.

The major aim of the research is to clarify quantum and many-body effects on transport and optical phenomena in such systems. Some examples of the topics investigated so far include ballistic transport in quantum point contacts in the presence of a magnetic field, conductance fluctuations, quantum wires and their response to external fields, quantum Hall effect and edge states, dynamics of tunneling across mesoscopic junctions, quantum effects and chaos in antidot lattices, the breakdown of Kohn's theorem in quantum cyclotron resonance, etc.

Carbon nanotubes are a cylinder consisting of a few two-dimensional graphite sheets and can be either a one-dimensional semiconductor or metal depending on their structure. Electronic properties of carbon nanotubes are also currently one of major subjects of an intensive study.

Research Subjects:

Quantum transport in low dimensional systems
Quantum Hall effect
Electronic properties of carbon-based new materials
