Abstract

In the present Lecture Notes a self-contained presentation of the fundamental concepts, theory, and computation of electronic transport was given, as adapted to open quantum billiard devices, for which the magnetotransport was then analyzed in dependence of the characteristics of the confining potential. Focusing on the interplay between the geometry of the setups and the effects of the magnetic field, it was investigated how special non-universal features in the transmission spectra arise which enable the efficient control of conductance by different underlying mechanisms.
