Quantum transport in mesoscopic systems

PHYS-462 / 4 credits

Teacher: Banerjee Mitali

Language: English

Summary

This course will focus on the electron transport in semiconductors, with emphasis on the mesoscopic systems. The aim is to understand the transport of electrons in low dimensional systems, where even particles with statistics different than fermions and bosons will be discussed.
