The expression of Cooperon (propagator in particle-particle channel) is obtained as the function of interlayer coupling. The analytical result for the quantum correction to Hall conductivity has been obtained as functions of elastic, inelastic and spin-orbit scattering times. It is shown that the strong and weak couplings correspond, respectively, to the 3D and 2D situations. The Hall coefficient is shown to vanish. The relevant dimensional crossover behavior from 3D to 2D with decreasing the interlayer coupling has been discussed, and the condition for the crossover has been obtained. The present theory is expected to apply for the electronic transport in tunneling superlattices.展开更多

Both the quantum wire and conductors are described by a hard-wall confining potential. Using the electron wave-functions in the quantum wire and a new definition of spin current, we have calculated the elements of linear spin current density j^Ts,xi and j^Ts,yi（i=x, y, z）. We find that the elements j^Ts,xx and j^Ts,yy have a antisymmetrical relation and the element j^Ts,yz has the same amount levelas j^Ts,xx and j^Ts,yy. We also find a net linear spin current density, which has peaks at the center of quantum wire. The net linear spin current can induce a linear electric field, which may imply a way of spin current detection.展开更多

The spin-wave spectra and four sublattices magnetizations and internal energy are calculated by employing retarded Green function technique. The sublattice magnetizations at ground state are smaller than their classical values, owing to the zero-point quantum fluctuations of the spins.展开更多
