Experimental verification of the work fluctuation-dissipation relation for information-to-work conversion
David Barker, Matteo Scandi, Sebastian Lehmann +4
We study experimentally work fluctuations in a Szilard engine that extracts work from information encoded as the occupancy of an electron level in a semiconductor quantum dot. We s…
Quantum confinement suppressing electronic heat flow below the Wiedemann-Franz law
D. Majidi, M. Josefsson, M. Kumar +5
The Wiedemann-Franz law states that the charge conductance and the electronic contribution to the heat conductance are proportional. This sets stringent constraints on efficiency b…
A self-calibrating superconducting pair-breaking detector
E. T. Mannila, V. F. Maisi, J. P. Pekola
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a self-calibrating detector of Cooper pair depairing in a superconductor based on a mesoscopic superconducting island coupled to normal me…
A superconductor free of quasiparticles for seconds
E. T. Mannila, P. Samuelsson, S. Simbierowicz +6
Superconducting devices, based on the Cooper pairing of electrons, play an important role in existing and emergent technologies, ranging from radiation detectors to quantum compute…
