Nanostructures
Quantum coherence and correlation effects distinguish quantum transport through
nanostructures from more conventional quasiclassical transport. A flexible and
intensively studied model system are quantum dots where our work has focused on
strongly coupled dots, the Coulomb blockade, and the Kondo effect. Most
of our current effort focuses on molecular electronics where we investigate the
influence of collective modes such as molecular vibrations or spin in
single-molecule transistors.
