Here we present research plans to investigate Shubnikov-de-Haas oscillations in a number of quantum well systems ranging from ordinary two-dimensional electron gases in InAs, GaAs single quantum wells with competing Rashba and Dresselhaus couplings to topological 2D structures such as InAs/GaSb double wells where topological insulating behavior has been predicted. Our approach relies on o…

This new project is a continuation of a successful previous PUB/USP ("Program Unificado de Bolsas USP") project that has been carried out by the undergraduate research student João Pedro; this project ended in Aug/2022. The student was granted another PUB/USP scholarship (since 09/2022), but we would like to apply for a FAPESP scholarship as it is more prestigious and also because João Pe…
In this proposal we present research plans to study Majorana Fermions in topological superconductors. We will address the problem by investigating the properties of the Kitaevtoy model in the presence of metallic contacts and a more realistic quantum wire system.To investigate the Kitaev model with metallic contacts, we will employ the Green's function method that allows us to obtain the …
The goal of this project is to study the production of quantum entanglement in electronic mesoscopic systems, for which the movement can be considered ballistic. In this case the classical dynamics of the system is important, and we consider systems with a chaotic classical limit, for which the quantum properties are known to be universal and well described by random matrix theory. Partic…
