Maximal positive cross shot noise from Andreev reflection

Superconductivity 2009-06-09 v1 Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics

Abstract

The current flowing from a superconductor to a two-terminal setup describing a nanostructure connected to normal-metal leads is studied. We provide an example of scattering matrix giving ideal splitting off electrons from a Cooper pair by means of Cauchy-Bunyakovsky-Schwarz inequality. The proposal of the junction and its possible variants are discussed in a context of possible experiments.
