Semiconductor nanowires (NWs) represent a unique system for exploring phenomena at the
nanoscale and are also expected to play a critical role in future electronic and optoelectronic …

The integer quantised conductance of one-dimensional electron systems is a well-
understood effect of quantum confinement. A number of fractionally quantised plateaus are …

Two-dimensional electron and hole gas systems, enabled through band structure design
and epitaxial growth on planar substrates, have served as key platforms for fundamental …

We report on measurements of quantum many-body modes in ballistic wires and their
dependence on Coulomb interactions, obtained by tunneling between two parallel wires in …

1622 applying a large magnetic field, however, it is possible to lift the spin degeneracy,
thereby splitting the modes and giving rise to conductance plateaus at integer multiples of …

We study the effect of Coulomb interactions on the conductance of a single-mode quantum
wire connecting two bulk leads. When the density of electrons in the wire is very low, they …

We review recent progress in the measurement and understanding of the
electricalproperties of individual metal and semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotubes …

The physics of interacting quantum wires has attracted a lot of attention recently. When the
density of electrons in the wire is very low, the strong repulsion between electrons leads to …

We use spatial spin separation by a magnetic focusing technique to probe the polarization of
quantum point contacts. The point contacts are fabricated from p-type GaAs/AlGaAs …

We study the transport of electrons through a long quantum wire connecting two bulk leads.
As the electron density in the wire is lowered, the Coulomb interactions lead to short-range …
