Charge fluctuations in nano-circuits with capacitor components are shown to give rise to a novel type of long-ranged interaction, which co-exist with the regular Casimir/van der Waals force. The developed theory distinguishes between…

The theory of dynamical Coulomb blockade is extended to tunneling elements driven by a time-dependent voltage. It is shown that for standard set-ups where an external voltage is applied to a tunnel junction via an impedance, time-dependent…

We use a novel technique to experimentally explore transport properties through a single metallic nanoparticle with variable coupling to electric leads. For strong dot-lead coupling the conductance is an oscillatory function of the gate…
