Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A nonperturbative method for calculating persistent currents in molecules and nanoscopic quantum rings is presented. Starting from the extended Hubbard model on a ring threaded by an Aharonov-Bohm flux, a feedback term through which the current can generate magnetic flux is added. Another extension of the Hamiltonian describes the energy stored in the internally generated field. This model is evaluated using exact diagonalization and an iterative scheme to find the minima of the free energy with respect to the current. The magnetic properties due to electron delocalization of conjugated hydrocarbons like benzene [magnetic anisotropy, magnetic susceptibility exaltation, nucleus-independent chemical shift (NICS)] - that have become important criteria for aromaticity - can be examined using this model. A possible novel mechanism for a permanent orbital magnetic moment in quantum rings analogous to the one in π-SQUIDs is found in the framework of the proposed model. The quantum rings must satisfy two conditions to exhibit this kind of permanent orbital magnetic moment: a negative Drude weight and an inductivity above the critical level.
