• Abstract: We study a 2D mesoscopic ring with an anisotropic effective mass considering surface quantum confinement effects. Consider that the ring is defined on the surface of a cone, which can be controlled topologically and mapped to the 2D ring in flat space. We demonstrate through numerical analysis that the electronic properties, the magnetization, and the persistent current undergo significant changes due to quantum confinement and non-isotropic mass. We investigate these changes in the direct band gap semiconductors SiC, ZnO, GaN, and AlN. There is a plus (or minus) shift in the energy sub-bands for different values of curvature parameter and anisotropy. Manifestations of this nature are also seen in the Fermi energy profile as a function of the magnetic field and in the ring width as a function of the curvature parameter. Aharonov-Bohm (AB) and de Haas van-Alphen (dHvA) oscillations are also studied, and we find that they are sensitive to variations in curvature and anisotropy.

  Magnetic field effects (MFE) in certain chemical reactions have been well established in the last five decades. We employ elaborate and realistic models of radical-pairs, considering its coupling to the local spin environment and the sensor. For two model systems, we derive signals of MFE detectable even in the weak coupling regime between radical-pair and NV quantum sensor.

  We report the existence of a sizeable quantum tunnelling splitting between the two lowest electronic spin levels of mononuclear Ni complexes. The level anti-crossing, or magnetic clock transition, associated with this gap has been directly monitored by heat capacity experiments. The comparison of these results with those obtained for a Co derivative, for which tunnelling is forbidden by symmetry, shows that the clock transition leads to an effective suppression of intermolecular spin-spin interactions.
