Mesoscopic Systems: Fundamentals and Applications

by Yoshimasa Murayama

Future high-tech applications such as nanotechnology require a deep understanding of the physics of mesoscopic systems. Mesoscopic systems form a bridge between macroscopic systems governed by classical physics and microscopic systems governed by quantum physics. This introduction discusses a variety of typical surface, optical, transport, and magnetic properties of mesoscopic systems with reference to many experimental observations.
