Summary

The aim of this book is to introduce the basic elements of the scattering matrix approach to transport phenomena in dynamical quantum systems of non-interacting electrons。 This approach admits a physically clear and transparent description of transport processes in dynamical mesoscopic systems promising basic elements of solid-state devices for quantum information processing。 One of the key effects, the quantum pump effect, is considered in detail。 In addition, the theory for a recently implemented new dynamical source — injecting electrons with time delay much larger than the electron coherence time — is offered。 This theory provides a simple description of quantum circuits with such a single-particle source and shows in an unambiguous way that the tunability inherent to the dynamical systems leads to a number of unexpected but fundamental effects。
