The Persistent Currents in the Triple-arm Ring with an Impurity
development of fabrication techniques has made possible for the dimensions of a structure to be much smaller than its characteristic lengths
such as mean free path and phase-coherence length of an electron. Such structure is referred to as mesoscopic system. The physical properties of the mesoscopic system are so affected by quantum-interference effects strongly that this system exhibits many novel phenomena. One of the intriguing phenomena is the persistent current in quantum rings threaded by magnetic flux. Prior to the experimental observation
Büttiker
Imry and Landauer suggested that the existence of persistent current is in an ordered one-dimension ring threaded by magnetic flux. Since the discovery of the persistent current
there have been many studies on the single ring
coupled ring and multiple-arm ring structures. It was shown that
in the presence of a transport current
the persistent current can flow in a ring
even in the absence of a magnetic field. The purpose of this paper is to study persistent currents in the triple-arm ring with an impurity by using quantum waveguide theory. It was found that in the presence of the transport current the persistent current arises in such structure even in the absence of magnetic field
beside
the persistent current in the triple-arm ring with an impurity and the single ring with an impurity are different
even though the ratio of the upper arm to the lower arm is same for the two cases. More importantly
It was shown that the impurity does not always suppress the amplitude of persistent current at some energy ranges.
