摘要
We have studied the quantum transport by nonadiabatic Aharonov-Casher phase in mesoscopic rings embedded in textured electric fields. The quantum transport of the electron is examined based on a one-dimensional quantum waveguide theory. Periodic behaviors of the transmission probability are found in the domain when the quantum phase approaches an adiabatic limit, whereas anomalous quantum transport is shown in the nonadiabatic domain. The difference between the angle of the spin and that of the electric field is found to determine the detailed characteristics of the nonadiabatic quantum phase and transport. The destructive pattern of the transmission probability is found to occur in accordance with the abrupt change of the persistent current in an isolated ring.
