2 Quantum Transport Manifestations of the wave nature of electrons in electrical transport shot noise weak localization conductance fluctuations Anderson localization Originally discovered for disordered conductors. This talk: no scattering off point-like impurities cavity I antidot lattice sample 1 μm
3 Weak localization disordered metals Nonzero (negative) ensemble average δ G at zero magnetic field G = μ A μ 2 + μ ν A μ A ν G [e 2 /h] δg Hikami box B [10-4 T] Mailly and Sanquer (1991) in Hik out Hik = + + Cooperon

5 Weak localization Theory based on diffractive scattering off point-like impurities not possible; Hik = + disordered ballistic
6 Weak localization Theory based on diffractive scattering off point-like impurities not possible; Instead: Semiclassics g = A A e i(s S )/,, and have equal angles upon entrance/exit S, : classical action A, : stability amplitudes Needed: Careful summation over classical trajectories,. Jalabert, Baranger, Stone (1990) Argaman (1995) Aleiner, Larkin (1996) Richter, Sieber (2001,2002) Heusler, Müller, Braun, Haake (2006)
7 Weak localization g, A A e i(s S )/, in out Weak localization: Trajectory pairs with small-angle self encounter Sieber, Richter (2001) also: Aleiner, Larkin (1996) t enc = 1 λ ln S cl ΔS Encounter duration t enc = τ E = 1 λ ln S cl If τ E << dwell time: Recover weak localization correction of disordered metal Aleiner, Larkin (1996) Richter, Sieber (2002) Heusler et al. (2006) Brouwer (2007) ballistic Hikami box
