Electron Transport In Single Molecule Magnet Transistors And Optical Lambda Transitions In The Nitrogen-Vacancy Center In Diamon, Gabriel Gonzalez
Electron Transport In Single Molecule Magnet Transistors And Optical Lambda Transitions In The Nitrogen-Vacancy Center In Diamon, Gabriel Gonzalez
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This thesis presents some theoretical studies dealing with quantum interference effects in electron transport through single molecule magnet transistors and a study on optical non-conserving spin transitions in the Nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond. The thesis starts with a brief general introduction to the physics of quantum transport through single electron transistors. Afterwards, the main body of the thesis is divided into three studies: (i) In chapter (2) we describe the properties of single molecule magnets and the Berry phase interference present in this nanomagnets. We then propose a way to detect quantum interference experimentally in the current of a single …
