Abstract

We investigate the probability distributions and spatial correlations of the local densities of electron wave functions for ballistic transport through mesoscopic chaotic open billiards. By quantitative comparison between our accurate fully-quantal calculations with theoretical expressions, we find wave-statistical behaviors intrinsically different from those in closed systems. It is shown that chaotic-scattering wave functions in open systems can be universally interpreted in terms of statistically independent real and imaginary random fields together with breaking of the endowed space reciprocity, resulting in the same wave function statistics as in the time-reversal symmetry-breaking crossover regime in closed systems.
