We analyze the time-resolved energy transport and the entropy production in ac-driven quantum coherent electron systems coupled to multiple reservoirs at finite temperature. At slow driving, we formulate the first and ...

Using a scattering matrix approach we study transport in coherent conductors driven by a timeperiodic bias voltage. We investigate the role of electron-like and hole-like excitations created by the driving in the energy ...

The search of new means of generating and controlling topological states of matter is at the front of many joint efforts, including band-gap engineering by doping and light-induced topological states. Most of our understading, ...

We modeled a type of field-effect transistor device based on graphene for the recognition of amino acids with a potential application in the building of a protein sequencer. The theoretical model used was a combination of ...

Coherent electronic transport through individual molecules is crucially sensitive to quantum interference. We investigate the zero-bias and zero-temperature conductance through π-conjugated annulene molecules weakly coupled ...
