Persistent Currents in 1D Disordered Rings of Interacting Electrons
arXiv:cond-mat/9310007 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.49.8258
Abstract
We calculate the persistent current of 1D rings of spinless fermions with short-range interactions on a lattice with up to 20 sites, and in the presence of disorder, for various band fillings. We find that {\it both} disorder and interactions always decrease the persistent current by localizing the electrons. Away from half-filling, the interaction has a much stronger influence in the presence of disorder than in the pure case.
