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 …

Quantum dots are examples of nanostructures which are attracting much interest in the fields
of both pure and applied physics. The smallest dots currently being fabricated contain N< 10 …

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 …

The study of single-electron phenomena associated with tunnelling in semiconductor
nanostructures has emerged in recent years as a major forefront of condensed matter …

We present a new high performance configuration interaction code optimally designed for
the calculation of the lowest-energy eigenstates of a few electrons in semiconductor …

We study the properties of rotating Bose-Einstein condensates in parabolic traps, with
coherence length large compared to the system size. In this limit, it has been shown that …

A transformation to a moving frame (the Eckardt frame) is used to study the quantum states
of interacting electrons in parabolic quantum dots in the presence of a perpendicular …
