Using a local thermometry technique, we have been able to quantitatively measure the thermal resistance $R^T$ of diffusive Andreev interferometers. We find that $R^T$ is strongly enhanced from its normal state value at low temperatures, and…
We consider a model for thermal contact through a diathermal interface between two macroscopic bodies at different temperatures: an Ising spin chain with nearest neighbor interactions is endowed with a Glauber dynamics with different…
Kondo effect in the vicinity of a singlet-triplet transition in a vertical quantum dot is considered. This system is shown to map onto a special version of the two-impurity Kondo model. At any value of the control parameter, the system has…
We find the charge and heat currents caused by a temperature difference applied to a superconducting point contact or to a quantum point contact between a superconducting and normal conductors. The results are formulated in terms of the…
We report a correlative microscopy study of a sample containing three stacks of InGaN/GaN quantum dots (QDs) grown at different substrate temperature, each stack consisting of 3 layers of QDs. Decreasing the substrate temperature along the…
The particle and spin transport through a quantum point contact between two Fermi gases with Raman-induced spin-orbit coupling are investigated. We show that the particle and spin conductances both demonstrate the structure of plateau due…
We report on the thermopower of an Aharonov-Bohm interferometer (AB) with a quantum dot in the Kondo limit. The thermopower is anomalously enhanced due to the Kondo effect as in heavy fermion systems. In contrast to the bulk systems, the…
It is shown that the conductance $G$ of the quantum microconstriction in the metal with an opened Fermi surface as a function of the contact diameter undergoes the jumps $e^{2}/h$ of the opposite sign. The negative jumps is the result of…
We study the non-contact friction between an atomic force microscope tip and a metal substrate in the presence of bias voltage. The friction is due to energy losses in the sample created by the electromagnetic field from the oscillating…
Topological aspects represent currently a boosting area in condensed matter physics. Yet there are very few suggestions for technical applications of topological phenomena. Still, the most important is the calibration of resistance…
In a quantum Hall interferometer, the dependence of the signal on source-drain voltage is controlled by details of the edge physics, such as the velocities of edge modes and the interaction between them and with screening layers. Such…
We numerically investigate thermal transport at solid-solid interfaces with graded intermediate layers whose masses vary exponentially from one side to the other. Using Non-Equilibrium Green's Function and Non-Equilibrium Molecular Dynamics…
We study the short-range correlation strength of three dimensional spin half dilute atomic Fermi gases with spin-orbit coupling. The interatomic interaction is modeled by the contact pseudopotential. In the high temperature limit, we derive…
Research focused on heat transport in the quantum Hall (QH) edge channel has successfully addressed fundamental theoretical questions surrounding the QH physics. However, the picture of the edge channel is complicated by the phenomenon of…
In this paper, the Curie temperature of ferroelectric films is studied using spin-1/2 transverse Ising model with long-range interaction within the framework of the effective-field theory. The dependence of the Curie temperature on the…
The amplification of the superconducting critical temperature Tc from the low temperature range in homogeneous 2D planes (Tc<23 K) to the high temperature range (23 K<Tc<150 K) in an artificial heterostructure of quantum stripes is…
The thermopower and conductance of atomic-size metallic contacts have been simultaneously measured using a mechanically controllable break junction. For contacts approaching atomic dimensions, abrupt steps in the thermopower are observed…
The linear transport properties of a model molecular transistor with electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions were investigated analytically and numerically. The model takes into account phonon modulation of the electronic energy…
An Aharonov-Bohm interferometer (ABI) carrying a quantum dot on one of its arms is analyzed. It is found that the Kondo temperature of the device depends strongly on the magnetic flux penetrating the ring. As a result, mesoscopic…
We study the conductance of a quantum T-junction coupled to two electron reservoirs and a quantum dot. In the absence of electron-electron interactions, the conductance $g$ is sensitive to interference between trajectories which enter the…
