Detection of DNA sequences has received broad attention due to its potential applications in
a variety of fields. As sensitivity of DNA biosensors is determined by signal variation of …

We compute analytically the full distribution of Andreev conductance G NS of a metal-
superconductor interface with a large number N c of transverse modes, using a random …

Quantum cavities or dots have markedly different properties depending on whether their
classical counterparts are chaotic or not. Connecting a superconductor to such a cavity …

When coupling a superconductor to a normal conducting region the physical properties of
the system are highly affected by the superconductor. We investigate the effect of one or two …

Algorithms based on operations that associate scattering matrices in series or in parallel
(analogous to impedance association in a classical circuit) are developed here. We …

We study the leading quantum interference correction to the conductance of a ballistic
quantum dot connected via barriers of arbitrary transparencies to both a normal-metal lead …

Nesta tese apresentamos um método para a obtenção da estatística de contagem de carga
de estruturas mesoscópicas baseado na teoria de matrizes aleatórias e em técnicas …

In this paper, we apply Andreev's reflection to study the sub-gap coherent transport
properties for a quantum dot attached to normal metal and superconductor reservoirs via …

In this work, thermoelectric transport through a saddle-point potential is discussed with an
emphasis on the effects of the chemical potential and temperature. In particular, the thermal …

Estudamos vários aspectos do transporte coerente em amostras mesoscópicas acopladas a
diferentes tipos de reservatórios de partículas. A maior parte do trabalho foi desenvolvida …
