* ABSTRACT | |||||||
One of the major focuses of interest in nanophysics has been the interplay of interactions and disorder in low-dimensional phase-coherent conductors. I will review the key concepts and recent progress in the physics of strongly correlated one-dimensional electron systems (quantum wires). Particular attention will be paid to the concept of disordered Luttinger liquids. Typical examples of the systems to which the theory applies are semiconductor nanowires and carbon nanotubes. Specifically, I will focus on: (i) Anderson localization in strongly correlated one-dimensional liquids; (ii) decoherence-induced transport in disordered Luttinger liquids; (iii) nonequilibrium phenomena and relaxation processes in interacting disordered quantum wires (nonequilibrium disordered Luttinger liquids). |
