Quantum transport through ballistic cavities: soft vs. hard quantum chaos
Bodo Huckestein, Roland Ketzmerick, Caio H. Lewenkopf
Abstract
We study transport through a two-dimensional billiard attached to two infinite leads by numerically calculating the Landauer conductance and the Wigner time delay. In the generic case of a mixed phase space we find a power law distribution of resonance widths and a power law dependence of conductance increments apparently reflecting the classical dwell time exponent, in striking difference to the case of a fully chaotic phase space. Surprisingly, these power laws appear on energy scales below the mean level spacing, in contrast to semiclassical expectations.
