We consider a current-carrying, phase-coherent multi-probe conductor to which a small tunneling contact is attached. We treat the conductor and the tunneling contact as a phase-coherent entity and use a Green's function formulation of the…
Radiative heat transfer (RHT) at the nanoscale can vastly exceed the far-field blackbody limit due to the tunneling of evanescent waves, a phenomenon traditionally described by fluctuational electrodynamics (FE). While FE has been…
Nonequilibrium quantum mechanics can be solved with the Keldysh formalism, which evolves the quantum mechanical states forward in time in the presence of a time-dependent field, and then evolves them backward in time, undoing the effect of…
The effect of a change of noise amplitudes in overdamped diffusive systems is linked to their unperturbed behavior by means of a nonequilibrium fluctuation-response relation. This formula holds also for systems with state-independent…
