Transport of interacting electrons through quantum point contacts — •Andreas Lassl, Peter Schlagheck, and Klaus Richter — Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Regensburg

We investigate the influence of interaction effects on the electronic transport properties of two-dimensional nanostructures. For our numerical studies we use a self-consistent iteration scheme based on the nonequilibrium Green function formalism. This allows us to include electron-electron interactions on the level of a mean-field description for the spin-dependent conductance. For transport through point contacts we show how short-range interactions can cause an asymmetry in the transmission of different spin directions leading to anomalous conductance steps which resemble the so-called "0.7 anomaly" [1].
