Designing Metastable Phases for High Performance Applications Metallic materials are important in a variety of high performance applications. However, a drawback of nearly all current high strength alloys is that they lack ductility or, on the opposite side, they may be highly ductile but lack strength. Hence, it is mandatory to develop new ... more |

Conductance Anomalies in Transport through Quantum Dots and Quantum Point contacts Quantum dots and quantum point contacts, two elementary building blocks of semiconducting nanodevices, both exhibit famously anomalous conductance features: the Kondo effect in the former case, and the 0.7 anomaly in the latter. The microscopic origin of the Kondo effect is well ... more |
