  5. 3. Time-dependent relaxation of charge and energy in electronic nanosystems

    Author : Jens Schulenborg; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : heat current; quantum dot; relaxation rate; rate detection; generalization of hermiticity; nonunitary dynamics; open quantum system; Coulomb charging energy; voltage switch; transient response; electronic nanosystem;

    Abstract : The study of the dynamics of strongly confined, interacting open quantum systems has attracted great interest over the past years, due to potential applications in nanoelectronics, metrology as well as quantum information. Most recent experimental and theoretical research in this field has shifted attention towards electronic heat currents, recognizing their potential for practical purposes as well as for tests of fundamental theories, and also aiming to control the inevitable heat dissipation of any dynamically operated electronic device.

  6. 4. Quantum Correlations and Temperature Fluctuations in Nanoscale Systems

    Author : Fredrik Brange; NanoLund: Center for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum transport; electronic entanglement; nanoscale thermodynamics; quantum calorimetry; Fysicumarkivet A:2019:Brange;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses two different topics related to the physics of nanoscale systems. The first topic concerns quantum correlations and entanglement between electrons in solid-state systems, with a focus on how to generate electronic orbital entanglement on a sub-decoherence time scale and how to achieve experimentally more feasible entanglement detection schemes.
