@article{ISI:000179286400106, abstract = {We study the conductance of three or more semi-infinite wires which meet at a junction. The electrons in the wires are taken to interact weakly with each other through a short-range density-density interaction, and they encounter a general scattering matrix at the junction. We derive the renormalization-group equations satisfied by the S-matrix, and we identify its fixed points and their stabilities. The conductance between any pair of wires is then studied as a function of physical parameters such as temperature. We discuss the possibility of observing the effects of junctions in present day experiments, such as the four-terminal conductance of a quantum wire and crossed quantum wires.}, article-number = {165327}, author = {Lal, S and Rao, S and Sen, D}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevB.66.165327}, eissn = {2469-9969}, issn = {2469-9950}, journal = {PHYSICAL REVIEW B}, month = {OCT 15}, number = {16}, researcherid-numbers = {Lal, Siddhartha/A-1414-2013}, times-cited = {83}, title = {Junction of several weakly interacting quantum wires: A renormalization group study}, unique-id = {ISI:000179286400106}, volume = {66}, year = {2002} }
