The quantum Hall impedance standard
Alternating current measurements of double-shielded quantum Hall devices have revealed a fascinating property of which only a quantum effect is capable: it can detect its own frequency dependence and convert it to a current dependence which can be used to eliminate both of them. According to an experimentally verified model, the residual frequency dependence is smaller than the measuring uncert...
متن کاملQuantum current modeling in nano-transistors with a quantum dot
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) serve as a new class of ‘zero dimensional’ nanomaterial’s in thecarbon class with sizes below 10 nm. As light emitting nanocrystals, QDs are assembled from semiconductormaterials, from the elements in the periodic groups of II-VI, III-V or IV-VI, mainly thanks to impacts of quantum confinement QDs have unique optical properties such as brighter, highly pho...
متن کاملQuantum Hall Effect as a Resistance Standard
In a two-dimensional electron gas system, the Hall resistance at low temperatures and in strong magnetic field has plateaus as a function of the number of electrons that can be linked to natural constants as RH = h/ie. Due to the high precision of the measurement, the quantization of the Hall resistance is now used as the primary standard of resistance. The paper describes the use of quantum Ha...
متن کاملJosephson Current and Noise at a Superconductor/Quantum-Spin-Hall-Insulator/Superconductor Junction
We study junctions between superconductors mediated by the edge states of a quantum-spin-Hall insulator. We show that such junctions exhibit a fractional Josephson effect, in which the current phase relation has a 4π rather than a 2π periodicity. This effect is a consequence of the conservation of fermion parity—the number of electron mod 2—in a superconducting junction and is closely related t...
متن کاملUnderstanding the Josephson current through a Kondo-correlated quantum dot.
We study the Josephson current 0-π transition of a quantum dot tuned to the Kondo regime. The physics can be quantitatively captured by the numerically exact continuous time quantum Monte Carlo method applied to the single-impurity Anderson model with Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer superconducting leads. For a comparison to an experiment, the tunnel couplings are determined by fitting the normal-sta...
