Floquet Theory of Electron Waiting Times in Quantum-Coherent Conductors

David Dasenbrook, Christian Flindt, Markus Büttiker

We present a Floquet scattering theory of electron waiting time distributions in periodically driven quantum conductors. We employ a second-quantized formulation that allows us to…

Powerful energy harvester based on resonant-tunneling quantum wells

Björn Sothmann, Rafael Sánchez, Andrew N. Jordan +1

We analyze a heat engine based on a hot cavity connected via quantum wells to electronic reservoirs. We discuss the output power as well as the efficiency both in the linear and no…

Fractional Josephson effect in a quadruple quantum dot

Björn Sothmann, Jian Li, Markus Büttiker

A double quantum dot coupled to an s-wave superconductor and subject to an inhomogeneous magnetic field can host a pair of zero-energy Majorana fermions when the dot properties are…

Hybrid Microwave-Cavity Heat Engine

Christian Bergenfeldt, Peter Samuelsson, Björn Sothmann +2

We propose and analyze the use of hybrid microwave cavities as quantum heat engines. A possible realization consists of two macroscopically separated quantum dot conductors coupled…

Emission of time-bin entangled particles into helical edge states

Patrick P. Hofer, Markus Büttiker

We propose a single-particle source which emits into the helical edge states of a two-dimensional quantum spin Hall insulator. Without breaking time-reversal symmetry, this source…

Correlations of heat and charge currents in quantum-dot thermoelectric engines

Rafael Sánchez, Björn Sothmann, Andrew N. Jordan +1

We analyze the noise properties of both electric charge and heat currents as well as their correlations in a quantum-dot based thermoelectric engine. The engine is a three-terminal…
