Diffusive conductors as Andreev interferometers.
We present a novel mechanism of phase-dependent electric transport in diffusive normal metal-superconductor structures. We provide a detailed theoretical and numerical analysis of recent unexplained experiments essentially
متن کاملLarge thermoelectric effect in ballistic Andreev interferometers
Employing quasiclassical theory of superconductivity combined with Keldysh technique we investigate large thermoelectric effect in multiterminal ballistic normal-superconducting (NS) hybrid structures. We argue that this effect is caused by electron-hole asymmetry generated by coherent Andreev reflection of quasiparticles at interfaces of two different superconductors with non-zero phase differ...
متن کاملCoherent nonlocal correlations in Andreev interferometers
Andreev interferometers, hybrid normal–superconducting loops, are well suited for studying phase-coherent effects, as they combine the robust quantum phase of a superconductor with a finite resistance normal section where phase-dependent transport properties can be easily measured. While they have previously been used to demonstrate local, phase-coherent properties, they may also be integrated ...
متن کاملMacroscopic resonant tunnelling through Andreev interferometers.
We investigate the conductance through and the spectrum of ballistic chaotic quantum dots attached to two s-wave superconductors, as a function of the phase difference phi between the two order parameters. A combination of analytical techniques-random matrix theory, Nazarov's circuit theory and the trajectory-based semiclassical theory-allows us to explore the quantum-to-classical crossover in ...
متن کاملAndreev reflection eigenvalue density in mesoscopic conductors.
The energy-dependent Andreev reflection eigenvalues determine the transport properties of normal-superconducting systems. We evaluate the eigenvalue density to get insight into the formation of resonant electron-hole transport channels. The circuit-theory-like method developed can be applied to any generic mesoscopic conductor or combinations thereof. We present the results for experimentally r...
