The electronic structures of a hybrid magnetic-electric quantum ring and two terminal conductance taking into account the resonant backscattering via both magnetic and electric edge channels are studied. The hybrid magnetic-electric quantum ring is formed by a magnetic quantum dot combined with an additional antidot electrostatic potential at the center of the dot. Electrons are both magnetically and electrically confined to the plane. The antidot potential repelling electrons from the center of the dot plays an important role in the energy spectra and magnetoconductance. The angular momentum transition in the ground state and the behavior of magnetoconductance due to a change of the antidot potential are shown in comparison with the conventional magnetic quantum dot.

Similarity and diversity of various quantum ring structures are investigated by classifying energy dispersions of three different structures: an electrostatic quantum ring, a magnetic quantum ring, and a magnetic-electric quantum ring. The wave functions and the eigenenergies of a single electron in the quantum ring structures are calculated by solving the Schrdinger equation without any electron-electron interaction. Magnetoconductance is studied by calculating a two-terminal conductance while taking into account the backscattering via the resonance through the states of the quantum rings at the center of a quasi-one dimensional conductor. It is found that the energy spectra for the various quantum ring structures are sensitive to additional electrostatic potentials as well as to the effects of a nonuniform magnetic field. There are also characteristics of similarity and diversity in the energy dispersions and in the single-channel magnetoconductance.

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides/nitrides or "MXenes" belong to a diverse-class of layered compounds, which offer composition- and electric-field-tunable electrical and physical properties. Although the majority of the MXenes, including Ti₃C₂T_x, are metallic, they typically show semiconductor-like behaviour in their percolated thin-film structure; this is also the most common structure used for fundamental studies and prototype device development of MXene. Magnetoconductance studies of thin-film MXenes are central to understanding their electronic transport properties and charge carrier dynamics, and also to evaluate their potential for spin-tronics and magnetoelectronics. Since MXenes are produced through solution processing, it is desirable to develop deposition strategies such as inkjet-printing to enable scale-up production with intricate structures/networks. Here, we systematically investigate the extrinsic negative magnetoconductance of inkjetprinted Ti₃C₂T_x MXene thin-films and report a crossover from weak anti-localization (WAL) to weak localization (WL) near 2.5K. The crossover from WAL to WL is consistent with strong, extrinsic, spin-orbit coupling, a key property for active control of spin currents in spin-orbitronic devices. From WAL/WL magnetoconductance analysis, we estimate that the printed MXene thin-film has a spin orbit coupling field of up to 0.84 T at 1.9 K. Our results and analyses offer a deeper understanding into microscopic charge carrier transport in Ti₃C₂T_x, revealing promising properties for printed, flexible, electronic and spinorbitronic device applications.

We have developed magnetocardiography(MCG) and impedance magnetocardiography(I-MCG) for detecting heart disease by using dc-SQUID technology. The MCG system, using low-Tc SQUID, is being applied commercially for diagnosing heart disease. Using the low-Tc MCG system, many clinical studies on detection of abnormality have been performed. Furthermore, we have developed a portable MCG system using high-Tc SQUID. For detecting changes in kinetic impedance in the heart, an I-MCG system has been demonstrated. The I-MCG system could detect the mechanical movement of the heart. In this report, we review current clinical applications of magnetocardiography and impedance magnetocardiography.
