A novel approach for generating giant electronic persistent currents in symmetric defect mesoscopic-ring networks

Abstract

According to optical analogy of electrons' behavior in mesoscopic systems, we change optical symmetric defect waveguide networks being able to create strong photonic localizations into electronic symmetric defect mesoscopic-ring networks (SDMRNs) being capable of generating giant electronic persistent currents. These simple SDMRNs can produce giant electronic persistent currents in the absence of magnetic field, stub, and impurity. We give out the sufficient condition for generating maximum electronic persistent current |Jp|max in SDMRNs and obtain the formula of |Jp|max. It is found that |Jp|max is proportional to the inverse square of the breaking degree of defect, Δd. Our results may deepen one's knowledge on the correlation between photonic and electronic networks and may be useful for the designing of microcircuits with large electric current.
