Quantum interference through gated single-molecule junctions

We discuss the general form of the transmission spectrum through a molec- ular junction in terms of the Green function of the isolated molecule. By introducing a tight binding method, we are able to translate the Green func- tion properties into practical graphical rules for assessing beforehand the possible existence of antiresonances in an energy range for a given choice of connecting sites. The analysis is exemplified with a benzene molecule under a hypothetical local gate, which allows one to continuously tune the on-site energy of single atoms, for various connection topologies and gate positions.Comment: 17 pages, 5 figure

Superadiabatic spin-preserving control of a single-spin qubit in a double quantum dot with spin–orbit interaction

A protocol for controlling the localization of an electron with a fixed projection of spin between two quantum dots in a material with spin-orbit (SO) interaction is studied. Due to SO coupling, the manipulation of the electron shuttling between both quantum dots also leads to a mixing between spin projections near to the avoided crossing of levels. We use a transitionless quantum driving approach, neglecting SO interaction, to analytically design simple electric and magnetic pulses able to rapidly drive the electron along an adiabatic Landau–Zener manifold. We show that the same fields in the presence of SO interaction can also give a fast high-fidelity transition between the qubit states. The performance of the proposed protocol is assessed in the presence of SO interactions of typical semiconductor materials. It is shown that it provides a fast and efficient spin-conserving method for controlling the electron position in a double quantum dot.Fil: Gomez, Sergio Santiago.

Quantum transport through single and multilayer icosahedral fullerenes

We use a tight-binding Hamiltonian and Green functions methods to calculate the quantum transmission through single-wall fullerenes and bilayered and trilayered onions of icosahedral symmetry attached to metallic leads. The electronic structure of the onion-like fullerenes takes into account the curvature and finite size of the fullerenes layers as well as the strength of the intershell interactions depending on to the number of interacting atom pairs belonging to adjacent shells. Misalignment of the symmetry axes of the concentric icosahedral shells produces breaking of the level degeneracies of the individual shells, giving rise some narrow quasi-continuum bands instead of the localized discrete peaks of the individual fullerenes. As a result, the transmission function for non symmetrical onions are rapidly varying functions of the Fermi energy. Furthermore, we found that most of the features of the transmission through the onions are due to the electronic structure of the outer shell with additional Fano-like antiresonances arising from coupling with or between the inner shells.Comment: 16 pages, 5 figur
