Effect of inelastic scattering on the average Coulomb-blockade peak height in quantum dots
C. W. J. Beenakker, H. Schomerus, P. G. Silvestrov
The average height of the Coulomb-blockade conductance peaks for chaotic elastic scattering is known to increase by a factor of 4/3 upon breaking time-reversal symmetry. We calcula…
Counting statistics of photons produced by electronic shot noise
C. W. J. Beenakker, H. Schomerus
A theory is presented for the photodetection statistics of radiation produced by current fluctuations in a phase-coherent conductor. Deviations are found from the Poisson statistic…
Enhancement of Kondo Temperature in Nanometer-Size Point Contacts
I. K. Yanson, V. V. Fisun, J. A. Mydosh +1
Point-contact spectroscopy is applied to study the energy dependence of paramagnetic impurities in noble metals. The samples are in the form of the so-called "mechanically controll…
Universal gap fluctuations in the superconductor proximity effect
M. G. Vavilov, P. W. Brouwer, V. Ambegaokar +1
Random-matrix theory is used to study the mesoscopic fluctuations of the excitation gap in a metal grain or quantum dot induced by the proximity to a superconductor. We propose tha…
Observation of Supershell Structure in Alkali Metal Nanowires
A. I. Yanson, I. K. Yanson, J. M. van Ruitenbeek
Nanowires are formed by indenting and subsequently retracting two pieces of sodium metal. Their cross-section gradually reduces upon retraction and the diameters can be obtained fr…
Nonlinear voltage dependence of the shot noise in mesoscopic degenerate conductors with strong electron-electron scattering
E. G. Mishchenko
It is shown that measurements of zero-frequency shot-noise can provide information on electron-electron interaction, because the strong interaction results in the nonlinear voltage…
