Abstract

We use a semiclassical approximation to study the transport through the weakly open chaotic Sinai quantum billiards which can be considered as the schematic of a Sinai mesoscopic device, with the diffractive scatterings at the lead openings taken into account. The conductance of the ballistic microstructure which displays universal fluctuations due to quantum interference of electrons can be calculated by Landauer formula as a function of the electron Fermi wave number, and the transmission amplitude can be expressed as the sum over all classical paths connecting the entrance and the exit leads. For the Sinai billiards, the path sum leads to an excellent numerical agreement between the peak positions of power spectrum of the transmission amplitude and the corresponding lengths of the classical trajectories, which demonstrates a good agreement between the quantum theory and the semiclassical theory.
