Abstract :
The resonant tunneling of electrons through a magnetic quantum ring in a two-dimensional sample and the effect of this resonant tunneling on the conductivity of the sample are studied in this work. The ballistic conductance of the sample is calculated for several values of the ratio (inner radius)/(outer radius) of the ring. The limit of a conductance plateau is recovered for approximately equal radii and previous results for the conductance of a magnetic quantum dot are recovered in the case of an approximately zero inner radius.
