Cross correlation mediated by Majorana island with finite charging energy

Emergence of a negative charging energy in a metallic dot capacitively coupled to a superconducting island

Modulation of Majorana-induced current cross-correlations by quantum dots.

We study charge transport through a topological superconductor with a pair of Majorana end states coupled to leads via quantum dots with resonant levels. The nonlocality of the Majorana bound states opens the possibility of crossed Andreev reflection with nonlocal shot noise due to the injection of an electron into one end of the superconductor followed by the emission of a hole at the other en...

Topological superfluids with finite-momentum pairing and Majorana fermions.

Majorana fermions (MFs), quantum particles that are their own antiparticles, are not only of fundamental importance in elementary particle physics and dark matter, but also building blocks for fault-tolerant quantum computation. Recently MFs have been intensively studied in solid state and cold atomic systems. These studies are generally based on superconducting pairing with zero total momentum...

Unified Green's function retrieval by cross-correlation; connection with energy principles.

It has been shown theoretically and observationally that the Green's function for acoustic and elastic waves can be retrieved by cross-correlating fluctuations recorded at two locations. We extend the concept of the extraction of the Green's function to a wide class of scalar linear systems. For systems that are not invariant under time reversal, the fluctuations must be excited by volume sourc...

Energy Efficient Data Transmission for Sensors with Wireless Charging

This paper studies the problem of maximizing the energy utilization for data transmission in sensors with periodical wireless charging process while taking into account the thermal effect. Two classes of problems are analyzed: one is the case that wireless charging can process for only a limited period of time, and the other is the case that wireless charging can process for a long enough time....
