Correlations between charge and energy current in ac-driven coherent conductors
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study transport in coherent conductors driven by a time-periodic bias voltage. We present results of the charge and energy noise and complement them by a study of the mixed noise, namely the zero-frequency correlator between charge and energy current. The mixed noise presents interference contributions and transport contributions, showing features different from those of charge and energy noise. The mixed noise can be accessed by measuring the correlator between the fluctuations of the power provided to the system and the charge current.

Coherent spin ratchets: A spin-orbit based quantum ratchet mechanism for spin-polarized currents in ballistic conductors
We demonstrate that the combined effect of a spatially periodic potential, lateral confinement, and spin-orbit interaction gives rise to a quantum ratchet mechanism for spin-polarized currents in two-dimensional coherent conductors. Upon adiabatic ac driving, in the absence of a net static bias, the system generates a directed spin current while the total charge current is zero. We analyze the ...

متن کاملShot-noise control in ac-driven nanoscale conductors
We derive within a time-dependent scattering formalism expressions for both the current through ac-driven nanoscale conductors and its fluctuations. The results for the time-dependent current, its time average, and, above all, the driven shot-noise properties assume an explicit and serviceable form by relating the propagator to a non-Hermitian Floquet theory. The driven noise cannot be expresse...
متن کاملDC ion-currents in AC conductors in hybrid AC/DC transmission
This publication presents the results of a series of laboratory investigations on the DC ion current coupling between nearby AC and DC conductors, which is an important consideration in the design of hybrid AC/DC transmission towers. The corona activity depends on the surface condition of the conductor. Whether or not the conductors produced corona was controlled by selectively wetting them. Th...
متن کاملTransport suppression in heterostructures driven by an ac gate voltage
We explore the possibility of inducing in heterostructures driven by an ac gate voltage the coherent current suppression recently found for nanoscale conductors in oscillating fields. The destruction of current is fairly independent of the transport voltage, but can be controlled by the driving amplitude and frequency. Within a tight-binding approximation, we obtain analytical results for the a...
