“Experimental distinction between giant vortex and multivortex states in mesoscopic superconductors”. Kanda A, Baelus BJ, Peeters FM, Kadowaki K, Ootuka Y, AIP conference proceedings
T2 –, 24th International Conference on Low Temperature Physics (LT24), AUG 10-17, 2005, Orlando, FL , 739 (2006)
Abstract: We describe an experimental distinction between giant vortex and multivortex states in mesoscopic superconducting disks by using two methods: the multiple-small-tunnel-junction method and the temperature dependence of vortex expulsion fields. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical simulations based on the non-linear Ginzburg-Landau theory.

“Graphene-based quantum wires”. Pereira JM Jr, Mlinar V, Peeters FM, Vasilopoulos P, AIP conference proceedings
T2 –, 28th International Conference on the Physics of Semiconductors (ICPS-28), JUL 24-28, 2006, Vienna, AUSTRIA , 721 (2007)
Abstract: We investigate the properties of carriers in graphene-based quantum wires created by potential barriers, by means of analytical and numerical calculations. We obtain expressions for the energy spectrum as a function of barrier height, well width and linear momentum along the wire. The results demonstrate a direction-dependent resonant transmission across the potential well.

“Characterization and modeling of single-particle energy levels and resonant currents in a coherent quantum dot mixer”. Austing DG, Payette C, Yu G, Gupta JA, Aers GC, Nair SV, Partoens B, Amaha S, Tarucha S, AIP conference proceedings
T2 –, 30th International Conference on the Physics of Semiconductors (ICPS-30), JUL 25-30, 2010, Seoul, SOUTH KOREA , 1 (2011). http://doi.org/10.1063/1.3666692
Abstract: We characterize and model the single-particle energy level position and resonant current strength at a three-level crossing in a coherent mixer composed of two weakly coupled vertical quantum dots. In addition to clear anticrossing behavior, an otherwise strong resonance is completely extinguished at the center of the crossing. Despite the strong variation in energy level position and resonant current strength throughout the crossing region, the resonance widths and the sum of the branch currents are found to be approximately constant.

“Electric field tuning of the band gap in four layers of graphene with different stacking order”. Avetisyan AA, Partoens B, Peeters FM, Proceedings of the Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers
T2 –, Conference on Photonics and Micro and Nano-structured Materials, JUN 28-30, 2011, Yerevan, ARMENIA , 84140 (2012). http://doi.org/10.1117/12.923618
Abstract: We investigated the effect of different stacking order of the four graphene layer system on the induced band gap when positively charged top and negatively charged back gates are applied to the system. A tight-binding approach within a self-consistent Hartree approximation is used to calculate the induced charges on the different graphene layers. We show that the electric field does not open an energy gap if the multilayer graphene system contains a trilayer part with the ABA Bernal stacking.

“Shallow donor near a semiconductor surface in the presence of locally spherical scanning tunneling microscope tip”. Djotyan AP, Avetisyan AA, Hao YL, Peeters FM, Proceedings of the Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers

Abstract: We developed a variational approach to investigate the ground state energy and the extend of the wavefunction of a neutral donor located near a semiconductor surface in the presence of scanning tunneling microscope (STM) metallic tip. We apply the effective mass approximation and use a variational wavefunction that takes into account the influence of all image charges that arise due to the presence of a metallic tip. The behavior of the ground state energy when the tip approaches the semiconductor surface is investigated.
