On-demand entanglement generation using dynamic single-electron sources

Patrick P. Hofer, David Dasenbrook, Christian Flindt

We review our recent proposals for the on-demand generation of entangled few-electron states using dynamic single-electron sources. The generation of entanglement can be traced bac…

Quantum heat engine based on photon-assisted Cooper pair tunneling

Patrick P. Hofer, J. -R. Souquet, Aashish A. Clerk

We propose and analyze a simple mesoscopic quantum heat engine that exhibits both high-power and high-efficiency. The system consists of a biased Josephson junction coupled to two…

Single-electron entanglement and nonlocality

David Dasenbrook, Joseph Bowles, Jonatan Bohr Brask +3

Motivated by recent progress in electron quantum optics, we revisit the question of single-electron entanglement, specifically whether the state of a single electron in a superposi…

Negative Full Counting Statistics Arise From Interference Effects

Patrick P. Hofer, Aashish A. Clerk

The Keldysh-ordered full counting statistics is a quasi-probability distribution describing the fluctuations of a time-integrated quantum observable. While it is well known that th…

Electron waiting times for the mesoscopic capacitor

Patrick P. Hofer, David Dasenbrook, Christian Flindt

We evaluate the distribution of waiting times between electrons emitted by a driven mesoscopic capacitor. Based on a wave packet approach we obtain analytic expressions for the ele…

Electron waiting times in coherent conductors are correlated

David Dasenbrook, Patrick P. Hofer, Christian Flindt

We evaluate the joint distributions of electron waiting times in coherent conductors described by scattering theory. Successive electron waiting times in a single-channel conductor…
