Introduction to Mesoscopic Physicsby Joseph Imry
Oxford University Press 1997; US$ 200.00Mesoscopic physics refers to the physics of structures larger than a nanometer (one billionth of a meter) but smaller than a micrometer (one millionth of a meter). This size range is the stage on which the exciting new research on submicroscopic and electronic and mechanical devices is being done. This research often crosses the boundary between physics and engineering, since engineering such tiny electronic components requires a firm grasp of quantum physics. Applications for the future may include such wonders as microscopic robot surgeons that travel through the blood stream to repair clogged arteries, submicroscopic actuators and builders, and supercomputers that fit on the head of a pin. The world of the future is being planned and built... more...
Mesoscopic Physics of Electrons and Photonsby Eric Akkermans; Gilles Montambaux
Cambridge University Press 2007; US$ 44.00Introduction to quantum mesoscopic physics for graduate students and researchers in physics and engineering. more...
Quantum Entanglement and Information Processingby Daniel Esteve; Jean-Michel Raimond; Jean Dalibard
Elsevier 2004; US$ 83.95It has been recognised recently that the strange features of the quantum world could be used for new information transmission or processing functions such as quantum cryptography or, more ambitiously, quantum computing. These fascinating perspectives renewed the interest in fundamental quantum properties and lead to important theoretical advances, such as quantum algorithms and quantum error correction codes. On the experimental side, remarkable advances have been achieved in quantum optics, solid state physics or nuclear magnetic resonance. This book presents the lecture notes of the Les Houches Summer School on ?Quantum entanglement and information processing?. Following the long tradition of the les Houches schools, it provides a comprehensive... more...
Solid state physics by Henry Ehrenreich; Frans Spaepen
Elsevier 1999; US$ 258.00The explosion of the science of mesoscopic structures is having a great impact on physics and electrical engineering because of the possible applications of these structures in microelectronic and optoelectronic devices of the future. more...
Mesoscopic Systemsby Yoshimasa Murayama
Wiley-VCH 2008; US$ 120.00Future high-tech applications such as nanotechnology require a deep understanding of the physics of mesoscopic systems. These systems form a bridge between macroscopic systems governed by classical physics and microscopic systems governed by quantum physics. This introduction discusses a variety of typical surface, optical, transport, and magnetic properties of mesoscopic systems with reference to many experimental observations. It is written for physicists, materials scientists and engineers who want to stay abreast of current research or high-tech development. more...
Perspectives of Mesoscopic Physicsby Amnon Aharony; Ora Entin-Wohlman
World Scientific 2010; US$ 211.00Professor Yoseph (Joe) Imry, an early initiator of mesoscopic physics, has been among the leaders in this field for several decades. This book contains articles by leading (theoretical and experimental) scientists working in nanoscience and in related fields. Most of the contributions, consisting both reviews of the state of the art and new results, summarize invited talks given at two conferences held in honor of Imry's 70th birthday: the 101st Statistical Mechanics Conference (Rutgers University, May 10-12, 2009), and Perspectives of Mesoscopic Physics (Weizmann Institute of Science, May 31-June 1, 2009). This book covers a broad range of active research in nanoscience, including topics like quantum interference, decoherence, electron... more...
