A variety of physical phenomena is addressed, relating to co-tunneling, pair-tunneling, adiabatic quantum pumping, charge and spin fluctuations, and inhomogeneous Luttinger liquids. We review theoretical many-body methods to treat correlation effects, quantum fluctuations, nonequilibrium physics, and the time evolution into the stationary state of complex nanoelectronic systems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-05-07T12:09:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "single molecules", "charge transport", "quantum dots", "quantum wires", "quantum fluctuation phenomena" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Nanotechnology", "year": 2010, "month": "Jul", "volume": 21, "number": 27, "pages": 272001 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 48, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010Nanot..21A2001A" } } }
