摘要

Under the umbrella of nano-mechanical control of electrons in crystalline solids, provided here are i) a discussion of aspects of the influence of static piezoelectricity on semiconductors, ii) a description of electron surfing on traveling piezopotentials/surface acoustic waves, iii) comments on the role of solitons in (dopable) polymer conductors/synthetic metals, and iv) the major component of these notes, a discussion of basic aspects of lattice solitons and discrete breathers permitting to understand genuine electron surfing on nanosolitons. This surfing offers a form of long range, fast and robust transport process in crystalline solids. The particular case of the undopable highly crystalline polydiacetylene polymer serves to illustrate the invention of a novel solectron field effect transistor (SFET).
