    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; master equation; magnetic nanoparticles; spin accumulation; molecular magnets; TMR; tunneling magnetoresistance; F-SET; ferromagnetic single-electron transistor; single-electron tunneling; nanomagnetism; spintronics; Coulomb blockade;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with single-electron tunneling in transistor-like devices in which the central electrode is either a metal nanoparticle (possibly ferromagnetic) or a molecular magnet. The investigated systems split into two different categories, depending on the size of the central island. READ MORE

  4. 4. Electromechanical Interactions in Shuttle Systems and Carbon Nanotube Relays

    Abstract : In this thesis we theoretically investigate two kinds of nanoscale systems where there is a strong electromechanical coupling, i.e. an intricate relation between the Coulomb forces that can appear in these systems and the displacements of parts of the systems that they cause.

  5. 5. Shuttle Transport of Charge in Normal and Superconducting Nanostructures

    Author : Andreas Isacsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Josephson effect; superconductivity; nanoelectromechanics NEMS ; single electron tunneling; coulomb blockade;

    Abstract : In nanoscale systems, accumulation of charge is associated with large charging energies. If the forces arising due to the Coulomb interaction are comparable to the rigidity of the structures mechanical deformations can couple to the electronic degrees of freedom. READ MORE
