abstract = {Semiconductor nanowires, fabricated by a bottom-up
approach, are very promising as buildingblocks for future
nanoscaled electronic devices. In addition, they are also
very interesting objectsfor studying fundamental quantum
phenomena. On InAs nanowires controlled by a set of
top-gateelectrodes ballistic transport was investigated. By
varying the gate voltage distinct conductancesteps due to
quantized conductance were observed. By means of
bias-dependent measurementsat various magnetic fields the
g-factor was extracted. In a set-up with two constrictions
in seriesit could be shown that the total conductance is
solely determined by the element with the lowerresistance.
We furthermore investigated GaAs/InAs core/shell nanowires,
where the highlyconductive InAs shell is wrapped around an
insulating GaAs core nanowire. These nanowireswere grown by
molecular beam epitaxy. At low temperatures pronounced flux
periodic (h/e)magnetoconductance oscillations are observed,
when the magnetic field is oriented along thenanowires axis.
These very regular oscillations are explained by the
formation of closed-loopquantum states in the tube-like InAs
shell comprising a flux periodic energy spectrum.
Themagnetoconductance oscillations are even observed at
temperatures as high as 50K.},
