Abstract
The free electron on a helix as a simple model of a molecular
chiral conductor is considered. In the presence of a static
magnetic field parallel to the helix axis, it is found that
both ballistic and diffusive electrical transport along the
helix show a conductivity that depends linearly on the current
and the magnetic field and on the handedness of the helix.
These results agree qualitatively with the recently
experimentally observed electrical magneto-chiral anisotropy in
carbon nanotubes. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights
