 abstract = {We study the ID transport through open channels of a quantum wire by a
Luttinger liquid model. We introduce contact regions lying in between
the non-interacting leads and the interacting quantum wire as Luttinger
liquids whose properties are governed by the electron parameters in the
leads. We place two barriers at the contacts to model imperfect coupling
between the leads and the quantum wire. We then show that this model
explains several interesting features of recent experiments. We discuss
the criteria required to observe resonant transmission through such a
quantum wire. We briefly discuss the role of an external magnetic field
on transport. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.},
