Nonequilibrium boundary-driven quantum systems: Models, methods, and properties

GT Landi, D Poletti, G Schaller - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2022 - APS
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 …

Molecular transport junctions: vibrational effects

M Galperin, MA Ratner, A Nitzan - Journal of Physics: Condensed …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
Transport of electrons in a single molecule junction is the simplest problem in the general
subject area of molecular electronics. In the past few years, this area has been extended to …

Non-equilibrium statistical mechanics: from a paradigmatic model to biological transport

T Chou, K Mallick, RKP Zia - Reports on progress in physics, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org

Counting statistics of non-Markovian quantum stochastic processes

C Flindt, T Novotný, A Braggio, M Sassetti, AP Jauho - Physical review letters, 2008 - APS
We derive a general expression for the cumulant generating function (CGF) of non-

Full counting statistics of super-Poissonian shot noise in multilevel quantum dots

W Belzig - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and Materials …, 2005 - APS
We examine the full counting statistics of quantum dots, which display super-Poissonian
shot noise. By an extension to a generic situation with many excited states we identify the …

Non-equilibrium quantum theory for nanodevices based on the Feynman–Vernon influence functional

J Jin, MWY Tu, WM Zhang, YJ Yan - New Journal of Physics, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
In this paper, we present a non-equilibrium quantum theory for transient electron dynamics
in nanodevices based on the Feynman–Vernon influence functional. Applying the exact …

Waiting times and noise in single particle transport

T Brandes - Annalen der Physik, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
The waiting time distribution w (τ), ie the probability for a delay τ between two subsequent
transition ('jumps') of particles, is a statistical tool in (quantum) transport. Using generalized …

Quantum Dynamics of a Resonator Driven by a Superconducting Single-Electron Transistor:<? format?> A Solid-State Analogue of the Micromaser

DA Rodrigues, J Imbers, AD Armour - Physical review letters, 2007 - APS
We investigate the behavior of a quantum resonator coupled to a superconducting single-
electron transistor (SSET) tuned to the Josephson quasiparticle resonance and show that …
