We formulate a theory for shot noise in quantum nanoelectromechanical systems. As a specific example, the theory is applied to a quantum shuttle, and the zero-frequency noise, measured by the Fano factor F, is computed. F reaches very low…
Landau's Fermi-liquid (FL) theory has been successful at the phenomenological description of the normal phase of many different Fermi systems. Using a dilute atomic Fermi fluid with tunable interactions, we investigate the microscopic basis…
The state of a single particle injected onto the surface of the Fermi sea is a pure state if the temperature is zero and is a mixed state if the temperature is finite. Moreover, the state of an injected particle is orthogonal to the state…
We report on a direct experimental evidence of shot noise in a linear macroscopic resistor. The origin of the shot noise comes from the fluctuation of the total number of charge carriers inside the resistor associated with their diffusive…
The interplay between band and atomic aspects in materials with co-existing wide-band and flat-band states, or wide-band and effectively dispersionless electronic states is increasingly expected to lead to novel behavior. Using dynamical…
We propose a model of metallic critical point which we study at $T=0$ in the large-$N$ limit. We start with two species of fermions $u_i, d_i$, each with $N$ flavors and a gas of matrix bosons $b_{ij}$ with $N^2$ components. The fermions…
The Marginal Fermi Liquid (MFL) hypothesis proposed by Varma et al is derived from a consistent treatment of local spinfluctuations in the Falicov-Kimball model (FKM). Within an infinite-dimensional mean-field approach, a marginal Fermi…
We report anomalous shot noise in nanojunctions of beta-tantalum, a ``bad" metal whose electronic properties are inconsistent with the Fermi liquid theory. Fano factors cluster around even multiples of the values expected for Fermi liquids,…
Despite much theoretical effort, there is no complete theory of the 'strange' metal state of the high temperature superconductors, and its linear-in-temperature, $T$, resistivity. Recent experiments showing an unexpected linear-in-field,…
Photons are emitted or absorbed by a nano-circuit under both equilibrium and non-equilibrium situations. Here, we focus on the non-equilibrium situation arising due to a temperature difference between the leads of a quantum point contact,…
Insisting on the relevance of spin-statistics theorem, I propose that anomalous low-energy excitations of strongly-noncrystalline solids (SNSs), observed at low temperatures T < 1 K, are fermions, which are localized and weakly interacting.…
Strange metal behavior refers to a linear temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity at temperatures below the Mott-Ioffe-Regel limit. It is seen in numerous strongly correlated electron systems, from the heavy fermion compounds,…
A possible explanation is given for the anomalous $T^{3/2}$ temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity of MnSi, which is observed in the high-pressure paramagnetic state. The unusual Fermi surface of MnSi includes large open…
The breakdown of the celebrated Fermi liquid theory in the strange metal phase is the central enigma of correlated quantum matter. Motivated by recent experiments reporting short-lived carriers, along with the ubiquitous observations of…
We show that shot noise in a diffusive ferromagnetic wire connected by tunnel contacts to two ferromagnetic electrodes can probe the intrinsic density of states and the extrinsic impurity scattering spin-polarization contributions in the…
Shot noise, originating from the discrete nature of electric charge, is generated by scattering processes. Shot-noise measurements have revealed microscopic charge dynamics in various quantum transport phenomena. In particular, beyond the…
An instability of a diffusive Fermi liquid, indicative of a metal-insulator transition (expected to be of first order), arising solely from the competition between quenched disorder and short-ranged interparticle interactions is identified…
We predict the existence of an anomalous crossover between thermal and shot noise in macroscopic diffusive conductors. We first show that, besides thermal noise, these systems may also exhibit shot noise due to fluctuations of the total…
In non-centrosymmetric crystals such as MnSi, magnetic order can take the form of a skyrmion crystal (SkX) . In this phase, conduction electrons coupled to the local magnetic moments acquire a Berry's phase, leading to an emergent…
The resistivity $\rho$ of high mobility dilute 2D holes in GaAs exhibits a peak at a certain temperature $T^*$ in zero magnetic field($B$=0). In the $T>T^*$ regime where d$\rho$/d$T<$0, we observe for the first time both the $\nu=1$ quantum…
