ABSTRACTThe study of quantum interference effects in metallic structures requires the lithographic resolution of electron-beam lithography. Resolution and reproducibility can be greatly enhanced by the use of a multilayer resist. We have implemented a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bilayer resist which avoids the typical problem of intermixing of the layers. This is accomplished by an expedient choice of the solvent, xylene, for the upper resist layer. Metal lines 30 nm wide have been fabricated. We also describe an additional deep ultraviolet (DUV) exposure method which facilitates making electrical contact to these ultrasmall structures. Quantum interference, localization effects, and the electron phase-coherence time have been studied.

In order to translate molecular properties in molecular-electronic devices, it is necessary to create design principles that can be used to achieve better structure–function control oriented toward device fabrication.

The relativistic quantum interference effects in the spacetime of slowly rotating object in braneworld as the Sagnac effect and phase shift effect of interfering particle in neutron interferometer are derived in unified way. It is found that in the case of the Sagnac effect, the influence of brane parameter is becoming important due to the fact that the angular velocity of the locally non-rotating observer is increased by the brane tension. In the case of neutron interferometry, it is found that an additional term in the phase shift of interfering particle emerges due to the presence of the brane parameter Q*. From the obtained expressions of phase shift in Mach–Zehnder interferometer upper limit for brane parameter has been estimated. From the results of the recent experiments we have obtained upper limit for the tidal charge as Q* ≲ 107 cm 2. Finally, as an example, we apply the obtained results to the calculation of the (ultra-cold neutrons) energy level modification in the gravitational field of slowly rotating gravitating object in the braneworld.
