Quadratic Hamiltonian approach to heat transport in fermionic systems

Ilari K. Mäkinen, Ivan M. Khaymovich, Jukka P. Pekola

We investigate the problem of quantum heat transport, based on the quadratic fermionic systems with help of the Peschel trick of single-particle correlation functions. The efficien…

Finite-bias Coulomb blockade thermometry

Omid Sharifi Sedeh, Christian P. Scheller, Henok Weldeyesus +4

Coulomb blockade thermometers (CBTs) are versatile and, in principle, primary thermometers operating down to the micro-Kelvin range but bias heating spoils the thermometry and the…

Heat bath in a quantum circuit

Jukka P. Pekola, Bayan Karimi

We discuss the concept and realization of a heat bath in solid state quantum systems. First we demonstrate that, unlike a true resistor, a finite one-dimensional Josephson junction…

Long-time relaxation of a finite spin bath linearly coupled to a qubit

Jukka P. Pekola, Bayan Karimi, Marco Cattaneo +1

We discuss the long-time relaxation of a qubit linearly coupled to a finite bath of spins (two-level systems, TLSs), with the interaction Hamiltonian in rotating wave approxima…

Microwave quantum diode

Rishabh Upadhyay, Dmitry S. Golubev, Yu-Cheng Chang +4

The fragile nature of quantum circuits is a major bottleneck to scalable quantum applications. Operating at cryogenic temperatures, quantum circuits are highly vulnerable to amplif…

Optimized proximity thermometer for ultrasensitive detection: Role of an ohmic electromagnetic environment

Danilo Nikolić, Bayan Karimi, Diego Subero Rengel +2

We propose a mesoscopic thermometer for ultrasensitive detection based on the proximity effect in superconductor-normal metal (SN) heterostructures. The device is based on the zero…
