Atomtronics is an emerging field that aims to manipulate ultracold atom moving in matter-
wave circuits for fundamental studies in both quantum science and technological …

The properties of quasi-two-dimensional semiconductor quantum dots are reviewed.
Experimental techniques for measuring the electronic shell structure and the effect of …

Making use of self-assembly techniques, we realize nanoscopic semiconductor quantum
rings in which the electronic states are in the true quantum limit. We employ two …

Theoretical approaches to one-dimensional and quasi-one-dimensional quantum rings with
a few electrons are reviewed. Discrete Hubbard-type models and continuum models are …

We study spectroscopically the current produced by a charged particle moving in a nanosize
semiconductor quantum ring subject to a perpendicular magnetic field. Several Aharonov …

An exactly soluble model is used to study magnetization and persistent currents of electrons
confined in two-dimensional mesoscopic rings and dots. The model allows the calculation of …

Tomographic nanometer-scale images of self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dots have
been obtained from surface-sensitive x-ray diffraction. Based on the three-dimensional …

We investigate theoretically electron spin states in one-dimensional and two-dimensional
(2D) hard-wall mesoscopic rings in the presence of both the Rashba spin-orbit interaction …

We have studied electron correlation effects in quantum dots and rings which include a
repulsive scattering centre and are subjected to a perpendicular magnetic field. The results …

In this work, we investigate the consequences of Lorentz-violating terms in the
thermodynamic properties of a 1-dimensional quantum ring. In particular, we use the …
