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

Investigations of emergent symmetry breaking phenomena occurring in small finite-size
systems are reviewed, with a focus on the strongly correlated regime of electrons in two …

We present an overview of the theoretical background and experimental re sults in the
rapidly developing field of semiconductor quantum dots-systems 8 6 of dimensions as small …

The ongoing miniaturization of solid state devices often leads to the question:“How small
can we make resistors, transistors, etc., without changing the way they work?” The question …

We study the transition between sharp and smooth density distributions at the edges of
quantum Hall liquids in the presence of interactions. We find that, for strong confining …

The study of heat transport has the potential to reveal new insights into the physics of
mesoscopic systems. This is especially true of those that show the integer quantum Hall …

This paper reviews progress on the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) based on what we
term Hamiltonian theories, ie, theories that proceed from the microscopic electronic …

We investigate the energy exchanges along an electronic quantum channel realized in the
integer quantum Hall regime at a filling factor of ν L= 2. One of the two edge channels is …

Magnetotransport measurements performed on several well-characterized highly oriented
pyrolitic graphite and single crystalline Kish graphite samples reveal a reentrant metallic …

The purpose of this review is to survey the status of the theory and experiment which can
contribute to our knowledge of plasmon excitations in synthetic semiconductor …
