Description:
Author(s): Abhijit C. Mehta, C. J. Umrigar, Julia S. Meyer, and Harold U. Baranger We study the quantum phase transition of interacting electrons in quantum wires from a one-dimensional (1D) linear configuration to a quasi-1D zigzag arrangement using quantum Monte Carlo methods. As the density increases from its lowest values, first, the electrons form a linear Wigner crystal, the... [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 246802] Published Tue Jun 11, 2013
