The dephasing time in coupled mesoscopic conductors is caused by the fluctuations of the dipolar charge permitted by the long range Coulomb interaction. We relate the phase breaking time to elementary transport coefficients which describe…
We develop a theoretical description of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer built from integer quantum Hall edge states, with an emphasis on how electron-electron interactions produce decoherence. We calculate the visibility of interference…
We study the transport properties of an Aharonov-Bohm ring containing two quantum dots. One of the dots has well-separated resonant levels, while the other is chaotic and is treated by random matrix theory. We find that the conductance…
Recent experiments [M. Yamamoto et al., Nature Nanotechnology 7, 247 (2012)] used the transport of electrons through an Aharonov-Bohm interferometer and two coupled channels (at both ends of the interferometer) to demonstrate a manipulable…
Although the conductance of a closed Aharonov-Bohm interferometer, with a quantum dot on one branch, obeys the Onsager symmetry under magnetic field reversal, it needs not be a periodic function of this field: the conductance maxima move…
A voltage bias applied to a conductor induces a change of the current noise with respect to the equilibrium noise known as excess noise. We analyze the excess noise of the electronic current flowing through a mesoscopic Aharonov-Bohm ring…
Effect of a complicated many-body environment is analyzed on the chaotic motion of a quantum particle in a mesoscopic ballistic structure. The dephasing and absorption phenomena are treated on the same footing in the framework of a…
We compute the temperature, voltage, and magnetic field dependences of the resistance oscillations of a model interferometer designed to measure the fractional statistics of the quasiparticles in the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect.…
We investigate the effect of dephasing/decoherence on quantum transport through open chaotic ballistic conductors in the semiclassical limit of small Fermi wavelength to system size ratio, $\lambda_F/L << 1$. We use the trajectory-based…
We present an experiment where we tune the decoherence in a quantum interferometer using one of the simplest object available in the physic of quantum conductors : an ohmic contact. For that purpose, we designed an electronic Mach-Zehnder…
We investigate the dephasing of mesoscopic interferences by electron-electron interactions in a strictly one-dimensional geometry composed of two weakly-coupled (clean and very long) Luttinger liquids. The main goal of this paper is to…
Twin beam fluctuations are analyzed for detuned and mismatched OPO configurations. Resonances and frequency responses to the quantum noise sources (quantum and pump amplitude/phase fluctuations) are examined as functions of cavity decay…
Multi-terminal Aharonov-Bohm (AB) rings are ideal building blocks for quantum networks (QNs) thanks to their ability to map input states into controlled coherent superpositions of output states. We report on experiments performed on…
We theoretically investigate electron transport through an Aharonov-Bohm interferometer containing laterally coupled double quantum dots. We introduce the indirect coupling parameter $\alpha$, which characterizes the strength of the…
I study dephasing of an underdamped nanomechanical resonator subject to random mass loading of small particles. I present a frequency noise model which describes dephasing due to attachment and detachment of particles at random points and…
We study electron transport through a triple quantum dot in ring configuration at finite bias. In particular, we analyze the influence of a gate voltage that detunes one of the dots, such that one branch of the interferometer becomes…
Exchange coupled {\it spin} qubits in semiconductor nanostructures are shown to be vulnerable to dephasing caused by {\it charge noise} invariably present in the semiconductor environment. This decoherence of exchange gate by environmental…
A magnetic field gradient applied to an atom interferometer induces a $M$-dependent phase shift which results in a series of decays and revivals of the fringe visibility. Using our lithium atom interferometer based on Bragg laser…
We consider the adiabatic charge transport through zero-dimensional mesoscopic sample (quantum dot) caused by two periodically changing external perturbations. Both the magnitude and the sign of the transmitted charge are extremely…
Recently, high-order sideband polarimetry has been established as an experimental method that links the polarization of sidebands to an interference of Bloch wavefunctions. However, the robustness of sideband polarizations to increasing…
