Control of Andreev bound state population and related charge-imbalance effect
arXiv:1407.0534 · doi:10.1088/0953-8984/27/9/095701
Abstract
Motivated by recent experimental research, we study the processes in an ac driven superconducting constriction whereby one quasiparticle is promoted to the delocalized states outside the superconducting gap. We demonstrate that with these processes one can control the population of the Andreev bound states in the constriction. We stress an interesting charge asymmetry of these processes that may produce a charge imbalance of accumulated quasiparticles, which depends on the phase.
