General properties of the tunnelling-charging Hamiltonian of a Cooper pair pump are examined with emphasis on the symmetries of the model. An efficient block-diagonalisation scheme and a compatible Fourier expansion of the eigenstates is…

We present the first measurements of the Berry phase in a superconducting Cooper pair pump. A fixed amount of Berry phase is accumulated to the quantum-mechanical ground state in each adiabatic pumping cycle, which is determined by…

The properties of the tunnelling-charging Hamiltonian of a Cooper pair pump are well understood in the regime of weak and intermediate Josephson coupling, i.e. E_J\lesssim E_C. Instead of perturbative treatment of charging effects, the…

We have investigated pumping in quantum dots from the perspective of non-Abelian (matrix) Berry phases by solving the time dependent Schr{\"o}dinger equation exactly for adiabatic changes. Our results demonstrate that a pumped charge is…

We study adiabatic charge transfer in a superconducting Cooper pair pump, focusing on the influence of current measurement on coherence. We investigate the limit where the Josephson coupling energy $E_J$ between the various parts of the…

We present a formalism to study adiabatic pumping through a superconductor - normal - superconductor weak link. At zero temperature, the pumped charge is related to the Berry phase accumulated, in a pumping cycle, by the Andreev bound…

We present a measurement scheme for observing the Berry phase in a flux assisted Cooper pair pump - the Cooper pair sluice. In contrast to the recent experiments, in which the sluice was employed to generate accurate current through a…

We introduce and discuss a scheme for Cooper-pair pumping. The scheme relies on the coherent transfer of a superposition of charge states across a superconducting island and is realized by adiabatic manipulation of magnetic fluxes.…

This paper is devoted to the analysis of an abstract formula describing quantum adiabatic charge pumping in a general context. We consider closed systems characterized by a slowly varying time-dependent Hamiltonian depending on an external…

We present a study of adiabatic Cooper pair pumping in one dimensional array of Cooper pair boxes. We do a detailed theoretical analysis of an experimentally realizable stabilized charge pumping scheme in a linear array of Cooper pair…

We demonstrate controlled pumping of Cooper pairs down to the level of a single pair per cycle, using an rf-driven Cooper-pair sluice. We also investigate the breakdown of the adiabatic dynamics in two different ways. By transferring many…

We introduce the concept of Berry's phase in Josephson junctions and consider how this geometric phase arises due to applied oscillating electric fields. The electromagnetic field excites topological quasi-particles from the junction vacuum…

We have developed a quantitative theory of Cooper pair pumping in gated one-dimensional arrays of Josephson junctions. The pumping accuracy is limited by quantum tunneling of Cooper pairs out of the propagating potential well and by direct…

We study the distinctive features of the phase pumping effect in Josephson transport through a three-layered ferromagnet F$_1$/F/F$_2$ with non-coplanar magnetization. Using Gor'kov and Bogoliubov-de Gennes formalisms we go beyond the…

A Berry phase can be added to the wavefunction of an isolated quantum dot by adiabatically modulating a nonuniform electric field along a time-cycle. The dot is tuned close to a three-level degeneracy, which provides a wide range of…

We investigate the effect of time-dependent cyclic-adiabatic driving on the charge transport in quantum junction. We propose a nonequilibrium Greens function formalism to study statistics of the charge pumped (at zero bias) through the…

Berry's phase often appears in quantum two-level systems with a degeneracy. An example of such a system is a spin-1/2 particle in a magnetic field. As the magnetic field is slowly evolved through a closed path, the particle has been shown…

Cooper pair pumping is a coherent process. We derive a general expression for the adiabatic pumped charge in superconducting nanocircuits in the presence of level degeneracy and relate it to non-Abelian holonomies of Wilczek and Zee. We…

We analyze theoretically adiabatic quantum pumping through a normal conductor that couples the normal regions of two superconductor/normal metal/superconductor Josephson junctions. By using the phases of the superconducting order parameter…

Quantum adiabatic pumping of charge and spin between two reservoirs (leads) has recently been demonstrated in nanoscale electronic devices. Pumping occurs when two or more system parameters are varied in a cyclic manner and sufficiently…
