Charge detection offers a powerful probe of mesoscopic structures based on quantum dots, but it also invariably results in measurement back-action (MBA). If strong, MBA can be detrimental to the physical properties being probed. In this…

The standard phase-ordering process is obtained by quenching a system, like the Ising model, to below the critical point. This is usually done with periodic boundary conditions to insure ergodicity breaking in the low temperature phase.…
