US-Germany Cooperative Research: 2D Transport Phenomena with Two Groups of Carriers

0231010raikh该奖项支持PI和犹他大学的博士后和研究生与德国柏林自由大学物理系的Felix von Oppen合作。结合互补的专业知识，德国和美国的研究小组将对低密度电子系统之间的库仑阻力进行理论研究。研究的一个关键要素是在模拟中使用蒙特卡罗方法，这是德国方面擅长的技术，模拟将在柏林进行。库仑阻力在过去几年中引起了理论学家和实验学家的兴趣，因为它揭示了层内电子相关测量的可能性。该项目还有一个教育目的。该项目将允许该大学的博士后和研究生在自由大学的夏季获得蒙特卡洛模拟的经验。除了让他们接触到蒙特卡洛最先进的技术，这也将使他们在全球就业市场上更具竞争力。

0231010RaikhThis award supports the PI and postdoctoral and graduate students from the University of Utah in a collaboration with Felix von Oppen of the Department of Physics at the Free University of Berlin, Germany. Combining complementary expertise, the German and US groups will make a theoretical study of Coulomb drag between low-density electron systems. A crucial element of the research is the use of Monte Carlo methods in simulation, which is a technique the German side specializes, and the simulations will be carried out in Berlin. Coulomb drag has garnered interests from both theorists and experimentalists in the past few years because it reveals makes measurement of intra-layer electron correlation possible.The project also has an educational objective. The project will allow postdocs and graduate students from the University to gain experience with Monte Carlo simulations during the summer at the Free University. Besides exposing them to one of the foremost groups in Monte Carlo techniques, this will also make them more competitive in the global job market.
