Electric circuit networks equivalent to chaotic quantum billiards
We formulate two types of electric RLC resonance network equivalent to
quantum billiards. In the network of inductors grounded by capacitors squared
resonant frequencies are eigenvalues of the quantum billiard. In the network of
capacitors grounded by inductors squared resonant frequencies are given by
inverse eigen values of the billiard. In both cases local voltages play role of
the wave function of the quantum billiard. However as different from quantum
billiards there is a heat power because of resistance of the inductors. In the
equivalent chaotic billiards we derive the distribution of the heat power which
well describes numerical statistics.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure
Statistical study of the conductance and shot noise in open quantum-chaotic cavities: Contribution from whispering gallery modes
In the past, a maximum-entropy model was introduced and applied to the study
of statistical scattering by chaotic cavities, when short paths may play an
important role in the scattering process. In particular, the validity of the
model was investigated in relation with the statistical properties of the
conductance in open chaotic cavities. In this article we investigate further
the validity of the maximum-entropy model, by comparing the theoretical
predictions with the results of computer simulations, in which the Schroedinger
equation is solved numerically inside the cavity for one and two open channels
in the leads; we analyze, in addition to the conductance, the zero-frequency
limit of the shot-noise power spectrum. We also obtain theoretical results for
the ensemble average of this last quantity, for the orthogonal and unitary
cases of the circular ensemble and an arbitrary number of channels. Generally
speaking, the agreement between theory and numerics is good. In some of the
cavities that we study, short paths consist of whispering gallery modes, which
were excluded in previous studies. These cavities turn out to be all the more
interesting, as it is in relation with them that we found certain systematic
discrepancies in the comparison with theory. We give evidence that it is the
lack of stationarity inside the energy interval that is analyzed, and hence the
lack of ergodicity that gives rise to the discrepancies. Indeed, the agreement
between theory and numerical simulations is improved when the energy interval
is reduced to a point and the statistics is then collected over an ensemble. It
thus appears that the maximum-entropy model is valid beyond the domain where it
was originally derived. An understanding of this situation is still lacking at
the present moment.Comment: Revised version, minor modifications, 28 pages, 7 figure
Hall-like effect induced by spin-orbit interaction
The effect of spin-orbit interaction on electron transport properties of a
cross-junction structure is studied. It is shown that it results in spin
polarization of left and right outgoing electron waves. Consequently, incoming
electron wave of a proper polarization induces voltage drop perpendicularly to
the direct current flow between source and drain of the considered
four-terminal cross-structure. The resulting Hall-like resistance is estimated
to be of the order of 10^-3 - 10^-2 h/e^2 for technologically available
structures. The effect becomes more pronounced in the vicinity of resonances
where Hall-like resistance changes its sign as function of the Fermi energy.Comment: 4 pages (RevTeX), 4 figures, will appear in Phys. Rev. Let

Two-component model of a spin-polarized transport
Effect of the spin-involved interaction of electrons with impurity atoms or
defects to the transport properties of a two-dimensional electron gas is
described by using a simplifying two-component model. Components representing
spin-up and spin-down states are supposed to be coupled at a discrete set of
points within a conduction channel. The used limit of the short-range
interaction allows to solve the relevant scattering problem exactly. By varying
the model parameters different transport regimes of two-terminal devices with
ferromagnetic contacts can be described. In a quasi-ballistic regime the
resulting difference between conductances for the parallel and antiparallel
orientation of the contact magnetization changes its sign as a function of the
length of the conduction channel if appropriate model parameters are chosen.
The effect is in agreement with recent experimental observations.Comment: 4 RevTeX pages with 4 figure
Effect of Quadratic Zeeman Energy on the Vortex of Spinor Bose-Einstein Condensates
The spinor Bose-Einstein condensate of atomic gases has been experimentally
realized by a number of groups. Further, theoretical proposals of the possible
vortex states have been sugessted. This paper studies the effects of the
quadratic Zeeman energy on the vortex states. This energy was ignored in
previous theoretical studies, although it exists in experimental systems. We
present phase diagrams of various vortex states taking into account the
quadratic Zeeman energy. The vortex states are calculated by the
Gross-Pitaevskii equations. Several new kinds of vortex states are found. It is
also found that the quadratic Zeeman energy affects the direction of total
magnetization and causes a significant change in the phase diagrams.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures. Published in J. Phys. Soc. Jp
