Recent years have seen tremendous progress in the theoretical understanding of quantum systems driven dissipatively by coupling to different baths at their edges. This was possible …
Topological charge pumping enables the transport of charge through an adiabatic cyclic evolution of the underlying Hamiltonian. In contrast to classical transport, the transported …
In this report we review the present state of the art of the control of propagating quantum states at the single-electron level and its potential application to quantum information …

Quantum phenomena are typically observable at length and time scales smaller than those of our everyday experience, often involving individual particles or excitations. The past few …
The tunnelling of quasiparticles across Josephson junctions in superconducting quantum circuits is an intrinsic decoherence mechanism for qubit degrees of freedom. Understanding …
Constructing new topological materials is of vital interest for the development of robust quantum applications. However, engineering such materials often causes technological …
The edge channels of the quantum Hall effect provide one dimensional chiral and ballistic wires along which electrons can be guided in an optics‐like setup. Electronic propagation …
The modern primary voltage standard is based on the ac Josephson effect and the ensuing Shapiro steps, where a microwave tone applied to a Josephson junction yields a constant …
