  2. 11. Quantum Devices from the Assembly of Zero- and One-Dimensional Building Blocks

    Author : Claes Thelander; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum devices; classical mechanics; quantum mechanics; relativity; statistical physics; thermodynamics; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; klassisk mekanik; kvantmekanik; relativitet; gravitation; termodynamik; statistisk fysik; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; single-electron transistor; nanowires; AFM; carbon nanotubes; Fysicumarkivet A:2003:Thelander;

    Abstract : This thesis describes novel methods for the fabrication of nanometer-scale electronic devices, such as single-electron transistors and resonant tunneling diodes, from wire- and dot-shaped building blocks. The first part of the thesis describes the manipulation of metal nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes using an atomic force microscope. READ MORE

  4. 12. Linking Probability Theory and Quantum Mechanics, and a Novel Formulation of Quantization

    Author : Fritiof Wallentin; Andrei Khrennikov; Kisil Vladimir; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum mechanics; contextuality; probabilistic interpretation; Born’s rule; frequentist interpretation; unitary representations; classical statistical mechanics; Koopman-von Neumann formulation; hidden-variable model; quantization.; Matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : This doctoral thesis in mathematics consists of three articles that explore the probabilistic structure of quantum mechanics and quantization from a novel perspective.The thesis adopts a probabilistic interpretation of quantum mechanics, which views the archetypical quantum experiments of Bell- and double-slit- type as violating the principle of non-contextuality, i.

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis revolves around spectral inequalities and their applications in quantum mechanics.In Paper A, the ground state energy of an atom confined to two dimensions is analyzed in the limit when the charge of the nucleus Z becomes very large. READ MORE

  7. 15. Measuring quantum systems with a tunnel junction

    Author : Joachim Wabnig; Jörgen Rammer; Ulrich Eckern; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum mechanics; quantum measurement; tunnel junction; qubit; nanomechanics; noise; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with employing the statistics of charge transfer in a conductor as a tool for quantum measurement. The physical systems studied are electronic devices made by nanoscale manufacturing techniques. In this context quantum measurement appears not as a postulate, but as physical process. READ MORE
