Abstract

We develop a new numerical method to calculate the Landauer conductance through an interacting electron system in the first order perturbation or in the self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation. It is applied to one and two dimensional systems with nearest-neighbor electron-electron interaction.

Hartree-Fock Simulation of Persistent Current in Rings with Single Scatterer

R. Németh, Martin Moško

Using the self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation for spinless electrons at zero temperature, we calculate the persistent current of the interacting electron gas in a one-dimensional ring containing a single δ barrier.Our results agree with correlated models like the Luttinger liquid model and lattice model with nearest-neighbor interaction.The persistent current is a sine-like function of magnetic flux.It decays with the ring length (L) faster than L -1 and eventually like L -α-1 , where α > 0 is universal.

Landauer formula for the conductance of interacting electrons

W. Apel

An exact formula for the conductance of a finite sample in which interacting electrons move in one dimension in the presence of random impurity potentials is derived. It has a form similar to the single-channel Landauer formula (1970) for non-interacting particles. The transmission coefficient is given by a temperature-dependent 2k f density response function of the interacting system.

Conductance of quantum wires: A numerical study of effects of an impurity and interactions

Amit Agarwal, Diptiman Sen

We use the nonequilibrium Green's function formalism and a self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation to numerically study the effects of a single impurity and interactions between the electrons (with and without spin) on the conductance of a quantum wire. We study how the conductance varies with the wire length, the temperature, and the strengths of the impurity and interactions. The numerical results for the dependence of the conductance on the wire length and temperature are compared with the results obtained from a renormalization group analysis based on the Hartree-Fock approximation. For the spin-$1∕2$ model with a repulsive on-site interaction or the spinless model with an attractive nearest neighbor interaction, we find that the conductance increases with increasing wire length or decreasing temperature. This can be explained using the Born approximation in scattering theory. For a strong impurity, the conductance is significantly different for a repulsive and an attractive impurity; this is due to the existence of a bound state in the latter case. In general, the large density deviations close to the impurity have an appreciable effect on the conductance at short distances which is not captured by the renormalization group equations.

Persistent Currents in Continuous One-Dimensional Disordered Rings within the Hartree–Fock Approximation

A. Cohen, Richard Berkovits, A. Heinrich

We present numerical results for the zero temperature persistent currents carried by interacting spinless electrons in disordered one-dimensional continuous rings. The disorder potential is described by a collection of δ-functions at random locations and strengths. The calculations are performed by a self-consistent Hartree–Fock (HF) approximation. Because the HF approximation retains the concept of single-electron levels, we compare the statistics of energy levels of noninteracting electrons with those of interacting electrons as well as of the level persistent currents. We find that the e–e interactions alter the levels and samples persistent currents and introduces a preffered diamagnetic current direction. In contrast to the analogous calculations that recently appeared in the literature for interacting spinless electrons in the presence of moderate disorder in tight-binding models we find no suppression of the persistent currents due to the e–e interactions.
