Shot noise, originating from the discrete nature of electric charge, is generated by scattering
processes. Shot-noise measurements have revealed microscopic charge dynamics in …

The integer quantised conductance of one-dimensional electron systems is a well-
understood effect of quantum confinement. A number of fractionally quantised plateaus are …

S trange-metal behavior has been observed in materials ranging from high-temperature
superconductors to heavy fermion metals. In conventional metals, current is carried by …

This book is written and organized around three topics: electron diffraction, electron optics,
and electron crystallography. It is intended as an advanced undergraduateor graduate-level …

We report on conductance measurements in carbon nanotube based double quantum dots
connected to two normal electrodes and a central superconducting finger. By operating our …

In the 1990s, nanoparticles and quantum dots began to be used in optical, electronic, and
biological applications. Now they are being studied for use in solid-state quantum …

Since the discovery a century ago,–of electronic thermal noise and shot noise, these forms
of fundamental noise have had an enormous impact on science and technology research …

We demonstrate a hybrid architecture consisting of a quantum dot circuit coupled to a single
mode of the electromagnetic field. We use single wall carbon nanotube based circuits …

Quantum impurity models, which describe how a local degree of freedom interacts with a
continuum, are central to condensed-matter physics. Such models may be naturally …

Coupling together distinct correlated and topologically nontrivial electronic phases of matter
can potentially induce novel electronic orders and phase transitions among them. Transition …
