Transport properties of mesoscopic rings confined between potential barriers are considered. Also considered is the double barrier structure with barriers fabricated of rings connected by a one-dimensional wire. Such structures we define as Aharonov-Bohm diodes with resonant tunneling (ABDRT) because for zero external magnetic flux their transport properties are quite similar to diodes with resonant tunneling (DRT). However, application of external magnetic flux gives rise to new resonant peaks of transmission determined by the quantization condition of the rings. Positions and widths of these novel flux induced resonant peaks extremely depend on the flux.

Numerical calculations by a transfer matrix method have been performed to obtain the transmission coefficient of rectangular double barrier structures. The dependence of the well width, barrier width and the barrier height was systematically investigated. When the width ratio of the two barriers was varied on condition that a total width was fixed, the transmission coefficient at a resonance is varied while that at a valley region is not. It is concluded that the resonant tunneling is characterized by two parameters: total width and the width ratio. Our results clarify the transition of transmission spectrum from a single barrier to a double barrier structure.

In this paper, novel features offered by Resonant Tunneling Diode (RTD) are reviewed by simulating it under different conditions. GaAs/AlGaAs based RTD is used as the reference one to obtain the characteristics due to parametric variations. To fulfil this purpose a simple model of resonant electronic transport through a double-barrier structure is developed. I-V characteristics are studied by varying barrier parameters and well width. Different peak and valley currents are measured under these conditions. For the same set of parameters both symmetric and asymmetric cases are considered. Different materials of lower effective mass are also taken into consideration to improve Peak to Valley Ratio (PVR). The Indium (In) based materials are considered to compare the characteristics obtained from the conventional GaAs based RTD structure. All these proposed structures are simulated using Silvaco Atlas software.

We investigate the transport properties of an interacting ring threaded by a magnetic flux and with Rashba spin-orbit coupling, based on a recently developed functional renormalized group technique. In the calculations of the electronic transport processes, the Coloumb On-site interactions are taken into account. For an interacting ring connected to two leads, we find that (i) for ΦAC = 0, the behavior of transmission zero at ΦAB = π is generic for the universal regime; (ii) for certain ΦAC and ΦAB, one can use the mesoscopic ring as spin filter even in the presence of the local interaction in the ring.

Quantum interference effects for a mesoscopic loop with three leads are investigated by using a one-dimensional quantum waveguide theory. The transmission and reflection probabilities are analytically obtained in terms of the magnetic flux, arm length, and wave vector. Oscillation of the magnetoconductance is explicitly demonstrated. Magnetoconductance is found to be sharply peaked for certain localized values of flux and kl. In addition, it is noticed that the periodicity of the transmission probability with respect to kl depends more sensitively on the lead position, compared to the case of the two-lead loop.
