As a result of suppressed phonon conduction, large improvements of the thermoelectric figure of merit, ZT, have been recently reported for nanostructures compared to the raw materials' ZT values. It has also been suggested that low…

Low frequency noise in current biased La$_{0.82}$Ca$_{0.18}$MnO$_{3}$ single crystals has been investigated in a wide temperature range from 79 K to 290 K. Despite pronounced changes in magnetic properties and dissipation mechanisms of the…

We present an analysis of acoustic phonon propagation through long, free-standing, insulating wires with rough surfaces. Due to a crossover from ballistic propagation of the lowest-frequency phonon mode at $\omega <\omega _{1}=\pi c/W$ to a…

We present a study of electronic transport in individual Bi nanowires of large diameter relative to the Fermi wavelength. Measurements of the resistance and thermopower of intrinsic and Sn-doped Bi wires with various wire diameters, ranging…

The nature of the low-frequency current fluctuations, i.e. carrier number vs. mobility, defines the strategies for noise reduction in electronic devices. While the 1/f noise in metals has been attributed to the electron mobility…

Conductivity noise in dc current biased La_{0.82}Ca_{0.18}MnO_{3} single crystals has been investigated in different metastable resistivity states enforced by applying voltage pulses to the sample at low temperatures. Noise measured in all…

We studied phase coherent phenomena in mesoscopic Permalloy samples by exploring low temperature transport. Both, differential conductance as a function of bias voltage and magnetoconductance of individual wires display conductance…

Critical current fluctuations with a 1/ f spectral density (f is frequency) are potentially a limiting source of intrinsic decoherence in superconducting quantum bits (qubits) based on Josephson tunnel junctions. Prior measurements of this…

We investigate the modification of the intrinsic carrier noise spectral density induced in low-doped semiconductor materials by an external correlated noise source added to the driving high-frequency periodic electric field. A Monte Carlo…

Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) and other superconducting circuits are limited by intrinsic flux noise with spectral density $1/f^{\alpha}$ with $\alpha<1$ whose origin is believed to be due to spin impurities. Here we…

We describe the low-frequency current fluctuations, i.e. electronic noise, in quasi-one-dimensional ZrTe3 van der Waals nanoribbons, which have recently attracted attention owing to their extraordinary high current carrying capacity.…

Superconducting fluctuations in long and narrow strips made from ultrathin NbN films, have been investigated. For large bias currents close to the critical current fluctuations led to localized, temporary transitions into the normal…

Interference of electronic waves undergoing Andreev reflection in diffusive conductors determines the energy profile of the conductance on the scale of the Thouless energy. A similar dependence exists in the current noise, but its behavior…

We investigate background charge fluctuation in a GaAs quantum dot device by measuring 1/f noise in the single-electron tunneling current through the dot. The current noise is understood as fluctuations of the confinement potential and…

We report that low frequency (up to 200 kHz) noise spectra of magnetic tunnel junctions with areas ~10^{-10}cm^2$ at 10 Kelvin deviate significantly from the typical 1/f behavior found in large area junctions at room temperature. In most…

In the presence of spatial variation of the magnetization direction, electric current noise causes a fluctuating spin-transfer torque that increases the fluctuations of the ferromagnetic order parameter. By the fluctuation-dissipation…
