We analyze the effect of contact resistance on the Lorenz number measurement based on direct electronic thermal conductivity experiments. The contact resistance can significantly limit the experimental measured value when the Lorenz number…
Contact resistivity rc of InP and GaAs based ohmic contacts was measured in the 4.2/300 K temperature range. Nonmonotonic dependences rc(T), with a minimum at temperature 50 K (150 K) for InP (GaAs) based contacts were obtained. The results…
The meaning of temperature in nonequilibrium thermodynamics is considered by using a forced harmonic oscillator in a heat bath, where we have two effective temperatures for the position and the momentum, respectively. We invent a concrete…
The electron-electron interaction corrections to the transport coefficients are calculated for a two-dimensional disordered metal in a parallel magnetic field via the quantum kinetic equation approach. For the thermal transport, three…
An asymmetry as a function of the direction of current flow is observed in the current-voltage characteristic (CVC) and its first and second derivatives for point heterocontacts between pure metals {Cu, Ni, Fe) as well as between these…
We compute the $\mathcal{O}(k^2)$ terms (power corrections) of the photon polarization tensor in a hot and dense medium of particles with a small but finite mass, i.e., $0< m\ll T, \mu$. We perform our calculations within the hard thermal…
We have measured the photothermal effect in a single cross-polarized interferometer at audio frequencies (5 Hz - 4 kHz). In a Fabry-Perot interferometer, light in one polarization is chopped to periodically heat the interferometer mirrors,…
A qubit-oscillator junction connecting as a series two bosonic heat baths at different temperatures can display heat valve and diode effects. In particular, the rectification can change in magnitude and even in sign, implying an inversion…
We report an accurate measurement of the phase noise of a thermally limited electronic oscillator at 300 K. By thermally limited we mean that the white signal-to-noise ratio of the oscillator is at or near the level generated by the thermal…
Within a fully relativistic framework, the one-loop self-energy correction for a bound electron is derived and extended to incorporate the effects of external thermal radiation. In a series of previous works, it was shown that in quantum…
We study the conductance of a quantum wire in the presence of weak electron-electron scattering. In a sufficiently long wire the scattering leads to full equilibration of the electron distribution function in the frame moving with the…
In the presence of Joule heating, the electronic temperature in a metallic resistor placed at sub-Kelvin temperatures can significantly exceed the phonon temperature. Electron cooling proceeds mainly through two processes: electronic…
The thermopower and conductance of atomic-size metallic contacts have been simultaneously measured using a mechanically controllable break junction. For contacts approaching atomic dimensions, abrupt steps in the thermopower are observed…
Numerical methods are developed to solve the problem of abnormal changes of current (conductivity) in polymer composite films which may be used as current, pressure or temperature sensors. General nonlinear model includes the heat equation,…
Cold ions trapped in the vicinity of conductive surfaces experience heating of their oscillatory motion. Typically, the rate of this heating is orders of magnitude larger than expected from electric field fluctuations due to thermal motion…
We present two loop corrections to photon self energy at finite temperature in real time formalism. An expression for renormalized coupling constant has been derived in a form that is relevant for all temperature ranges of interest in QED,…
During the standard ac lock-in measurement of the resistance of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) applying an ac current $I = \sqrt{2} I_0 \sin(\omega t)$, the electron temperature $T_e$ oscillates with the angular frequency $2 \omega$…
We use the density matrix formalism in order to calculate the energy level shifts, in second order on interaction, of an atom in the presence of a perfectly conducting wall in the dipole approximation. The thermal corrections are also…
We generalise the relativistic expression of Ohm's law by studying a multi-fluid system of charged species using the 1+3 covariant formulation of general relativistic electrodynamics. This is done by providing a fully relativistic, fully…
Photoemission experiments involve the motion of an electron near a conducting surface. This necessarily generates heat by ohmic losses from eddy currents. This inelastic scattering of the electrons will result in a downward shift in…
