  • 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.

  • Quantitative measurement of trace ethane is important in environmental science and biomedical applications. For these applications, we typically require a few tens of part-per-trillion level measurement sensitivity. To measure trace-level ethane, we constructed a cavity ring-down spectroscopy setup in the 3.37 ㎛ mid-infrared wavelength range, which is applicable to multi-species chemical analysis. We demonstrated that the detection limit of ethane is approximately 300 parts per trillion, and the measured concentration is in agreement with the amounts of the injected sample. We expect that these results can be applied to the chemical analysis of ethane and applications such as breath test equipment.

  • With the development of quantum computers, ring signature schemes based on large integer prime factorization, discrete logarithm problem, and bilinear pairing are under threat. For this reason, we design a ring signature scheme based on lattice with a fixed verification key. Compared with the previous ring signature scheme based on lattice, our design has a fixed verification key and does not disclose the signer's identity. Meanwhile, we propose an anonymous electronic voting scheme by using our ring signature scheme based on lattice and (t, n) threshold scheme, which makes up for the lack of current anonymous electronic voting that cannot resist attacks of the quantum computer. Finally, under standard model (SM), we prove that our ring signature scheme based on lattice is anonymous against the full-key exposure, and existentially non-forgeable against insider corruption. Furthermore, we also briefly analyze the security of our anonymous electronic voting scheme.

  • 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.

  • The polarized micro-photoluminescence spectrum was analyzed to investigate the anisotropic localized states in a single GaAs quantum ring. An energy difference of ~0.1 meV was observed from the perpendicularly polarized spectrum measured by a pair of linear analyzers. Spectral dependence of the polarized emission was also characterized in terms of rotation and ellipticity angles using four Stokes parameters. While the rotation angle indicates the symmetric axis of an anisotropic quantum ring with a small variation (± 2°), the ellipticity angle varies from 7.4° down to -2.5°. We conclude that optical anisotropy and birefringence are induced by the crescent-like lateral shape of localized states.

  • The GaAs semiconductor whispering gallery modes, produced in the peripheral Rayleigh band region of W/sub Rayleigh/ = (${\Phi}$/2)( 1-n/sub eff/n), exhibit novel properties of ultralow thresholds open to nano-ampere regime associated with photonic quantum ring (PQR) production (Fig 1 (a)). The PQR phenomena are associated with a photonic field-driven phase transition of quantum well(QW)-to-quantum wire (QWR) and hence the photonic (non-de Broglie) quantum corral effects, on the Rayleigh cavity confined carriers in dynamic steady state, occur as schematically shown in Fig 1.

  • We suggest flux quantum-based mechanism for force realization in the sub-pico-Newton range. By controlling the number of flux quantum in a superconducting ring, a force can be created as an integer multiple of a constant force step. For a 50 nm-thick Nb ring with the inner and outer radii of $5{\mu}m\;and\;10{\mu}m$, respectively, the force step is estimated to be 165 fN, assuming the magnetic field gradient of 10 T/m. We also estimated a maximum force limit to be $1\sim2$ pN.
