What is the Thouless Energy for Ballistic Systems?
Alexander Altland ; Yuval Gefen ; Gilles Montambaux ;
Date 16 Nov 1995
Subject cond-mat
AbstractThe Thouless energy, $Ec$ characterizes numerous quantities associated with sensitivity to boundary conditions in diffusive mesoscopic conductors. What happens to these quantities if the disorder strength is decreased and a transition to the ballistic regime takes place? In the present analysis we refute the intuitively plausible assumption that $Ec$ loses its meaning as an inverse diffusion time through the system at hand, and generally disorder independent scales take over. Instead we find that a variety of (thermodynamic) observables are still characterized by the Thouless energy.
