Abstract
We review recent results concerning the quantum and classical dynamical pro perties of ballistic electrons in a ripple channel, their transport propert ies and its classical-quantum correspondence. In the classical regime of a finite channel, a signature of chaos is found in the behavior of the resist ance. The classical-quantum correspondence is analyzed in terms of "quantum Poincare plots", energy level statistics, and certain features of the ener gy-band spectra.
