We analyze shot noise in a magnetic tunnel junction with a two-level quantum dot attached to the magnetic electrodes. The considerations are limited to the case when some transport channels are suppressed at low temperatures. Coupling of…

Electrical and thermal transport properties of C60 molecules are investigated with density-functional-theory based calculations. These calculations suggest that the optimum contact geometry for an electrode terminated with a single-Au atom…

We report on inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy measurements carried out on single molecules incorporated into a mechanically controllable break-junction of Au and Pt electrodes at low temperature. Here we establish a correlation…

Shot noise is a powerful tool to probe correlations and microscopic transport details that conductance measurements alone cannot reveal. Even in atomic-scale Au devices that are well described by Landauer-B{\"u}ttiker physics, complications…

Current noise in nanoscale systems provides additional information beyond the electronic conductance. We report measurements at room temperature of the nonequilibrium "excess" noise in ensembles of atomic-scale gold junctions repeatedly…

We measure the low bias conductance of a series of substituted benzene diamine molecules while breaking a gold point contact in a solution of the molecules. Transport through these substituted benzenes is by means of nonresonant tunneling…

We investigate the electronic transport through a single molecule in a strong electron-phonon coupling regime. Based on a particle-hole transformation which is made suitable for non-equilibrium situation, we treat the pair tunneling and…

We show that shot noise can be used for studies of hopping and resonant tunnelling between localised electron states. In hopping via several states, shot noise is seen to be suppressed compared with its classical Poisson value $S_I=2eI$…

Noise measurements provide a valuable tool for revealing spin polarization effects in the electronic transport through quantum coherent conductors. We present an extension of the Landauer description of shot noise to include…

In this paper, we analyze vibration-assisted sequential tunneling (including current-voltage characteristics and zero-frequency shot noise) through a molecular quantum dot with two electronic orbitals asymmetrically coupled to the internal…

Within the framework of nonequilibrium Green's functions, we investigate the thermoelectric transport in a single molecular junction with electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions. By transforming into a displaced phonon basis, we…

The tip of a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope is brought into contact with individual Kondo impurities (cobalt atoms) adsorbed on a Cu(100) surface. A smooth transition from the tunneling regime to a point contact with a…

There exists a fascinating dual representation of the electric ac current flowing through a normal conductor. On the one hand, it can be understood in terms of charge transport. On the other hand, it consists in an electomagnetic field…

The conductance quantization and shot noise below the first conductance plateau $G_0 = 2e^2/h$ are measured in a quantum point contact fabricated in a GaAs/AlGaAs tunnel-coupled double quantum well. From the conductance measurement, we…

We report measurements of shot noise in a tunnel junction under bi-harmonic illumination, Vac(t) = Vac1 cos(2\pi ft) + Vac2 cos(4\pi ft+ \phi). The experiment is performed in the quantum regime, hf >> k_BT at low temperature T = 70 mK and…

The spin resolved current shot noise can uniquely probe the interactions in mesoscopic systems: i) in a normal-superconducting junction, the spin current noise is zero, as carried by singlets, and ii) in a single electron transistor (SET)…

We study the transport properties of two double quantum dots in a parallel arrangement at temperatures of a few Kelvin. Thereby, we show that decoherence entailed by the substrate phonons affects the shot noise. For asymmetric coupling…

We analyze current fluctuations in mesoscopic coherent conductors in the presence of electron-electron interactions. In a wide range of parameters we obtain explicit universal dependencies of the current noise on temperature, voltage and…

Spin-dependent transport through a multilevel quantum dot weakly coupled to ferromagnetic leads is analyzed theoretically by means of the real-time diagrammatic technique. Both the sequential and cotunneling processes are taken into…

We analyze the effect of electron-electron interactions on Andreev current and shot noise in diffusive hybrid structures composed of a normal metal attached to a superconductor via a weakly transmitting interface. We demonstrate that at…
