2. Quantum-Dot Heat Engines
Abstract : This thesis explores the possibilities of using quantum dots (QDs) in nanoscale energy har- vesters converting heat into electrical energy, i.e. heat engines. From a theory perspective, these possibilities have been investigated for almost two decades, and interest in them seem to continuously increase over time. READ MORE

3. Microwave Gaussian quantum metrology
Abstract : With increasingly sensitive measurements being made possible by technological development, there arises situations where the effects of quantum mechanics have to be taken into account. While quantum mechanics tells us that there are fundamental limits of measurement sensitivity, it also gives us the tools to constructively push the same limits for experimental systems. READ MORE

4. Quantum and Ballistic Nanodevices
Abstract : In this thesis, electron transport in quantum and ballistic devices was studied. The devices studied here were quantum wires, planar quantum dots, ballistic rectifiers, artificial functional materials, and three-terminal ballistic junctions. The possible application of such devices in the future nanoelectronics was also investigated. READ MORE

5. Quantum acoustics with superconducting circuits
Abstract : The past 20 years has seen rapid developments in circuit quantum electrodynamics, where superconducting qubits and resonators are used to control and study quantum light-matter interaction at a fundamental level. The development of this field is strongly influenced by quantum information science and the prospect of realizing quantum computation, but also opens up opportunities for combinations of different physical systems and research areas.
