Funded Activity Summary

Correlated electron states in ultra high purity quantum transistors. Ultra-fast transistors play a decisive role in modern telecommunications and are found in everything from mobile telephones to HD television. The rapid advances in transistor technology and its impact on society has recently been recognised by the award of the 2000 Nobel Prize in Physics for electronic device design. However the rapid advances in technology have reached the stage where unexpected new phenomena are being observed in extremely high quality transistors that cannot be explained by existing theories. This proposal addresses this imbalance and aims to develop powerful theoretical tools to investigate unexplained quantum effects in ultra-high quality transistors.
