We show that placing a quantum system in contact with an environment can enhance non-Fermi-liquid correlations, rather than destroy quantum effects as is typical. The system consists of two quantum dots in series with two leads; the highly…
Environmental noise can enhance transport, an effect known as environmental noise-assisted quantum transport. Most theoretical studies focus on optimizing system parameters under spatially uniform system-environment coupling. Here, instead,…
