The 6th Quantum-Transport Nano-Hana International Workshop on
Research on Nano-scale Transports in Low-dimensional Conductors
(QTNH-2008)

2008, Oct., 24(Fri) - 25 (Sat) at Chiba Univ., Japan



In successive holdings on our QTNH workshop since 2001, mainly based on low dimensional conductors, newly and basic problems on quantum transports have been presented and discussed.  Although, the all of our QTNH opened, there are many kinds of low dimensional transport, such as tunneling, resonance, spin correlation, etc., the main leading part of the transport has clearly been confined into a characteristic and elementary transport process in a very small region, such as point contact, junction, phase boundary, or layer interface, as well as in an extremely minimized region by a super-nano-scaled confinement.  Therefore, we would like to clarify a fine probing for such nano-scaled transports as a first step of discussing on the characteristic transport process.  As for the aim of this workshop, QTNH2008, we discuss on researching or looking for a clear essence of each nano-scale transport in metal or semiconductor by using of various kind of confinements such as nano-fabrications, scanning probe detection, applying high-magnetic fields, including several kinds of modulations such as localized spin interactions, or excited with micro-wave or THz radiation so on.
