Lindblad equation approach for the full counting statistics of work and heat in driven quantum systems
Mihail Silaev, Tero T. Heikkilä, Pauli Virtanen
We formulate the general approach based on the Lindblad equation to calculate the full counting statistics of work and heat produced by driven quantum systems weakly coupled with a…
Enhancing optomechanical coupling via the Josephson effect
Tero T. Heikkilä, Francesco Massel, Jani Tuorila +2
Cavity optomechanics is showing promise for studying quantum mechanics in large systems. However, smallness of the radiation-pressure coupling is a serious hindrance. Here we show…
Huge thermoelectric effects in ferromagnet-superconductor junctions in the presence of a spin-splitting field
A. Ozaeta, P. Virtanen, F. S. Bergeret +1
We show that a huge thermoelectric effect can be observed by contacting a superconductor whose density of states is spin-split by a Zeeman field with a ferromagnet with a non-zero…
Non-equilibrium and proximity effects in superconductor-normal metal junctions
V. J. Kauppila, H. Q. Nguyen, T. T. Heikkilä
We study the consequences of non-equilibrium heating and inverse proximity effect in normal metal - insulator - superconductor - insulator - normal metal (NISIN) junctions with a s…
Non-universal shot noise in quasiequilibrium spin valves
T. T. Heikkila, K. E. Nagaev
We show that the breakdown of the Wiedemann-Franz law due to electron--electron scattering in diffusive spin valves may result in a strong suppression of the Fano factor that descr…
