Abstract

Coulomb drag, a term coined in analogy to phonon drag, refers to the effect of mutual friction between nonequilibrium conduction electrons belonging to two electrically isolated but closely spaced conductors. Coulomb drag experiments provide unique insight into microscopic properties of interacting many-body systems and are important in systems of small size or of reduced dimensionality. This review provides an overview of the effect in semiconductor heterostructures, double-layers devices, and nanostructures.
