Maximal positive cross-correlation of current noise from Andreev reflection
For more than a decade it has been accepted that the phenomena of quantum transport in mesoscopic systems are intimately connected with the fermionic nature of carriers, both electrons and holes. The simplest fingerprint of statistical interaction is the sub-Poissonian shot noise measured in the quantum point contact. I The electronic Hanbury BrownTwiss2 experiment performed in the quantum Hall...
متن کاملMicroseism source direction from noise cross-correlation
S U M M A R Y Inhomogeneous noise sources surrounding stations produce asymmetric amplitudes in crosscorrelation functions that yield preferential source directions. Here we show that preprocessing biases the dominant source direction estimate towards the source producing long-duration signals by down-weighting high-amplitude signals. Tests with both synthetic data and observations show that co...
متن کاملProbing Ferromagnets with Andreev Reflection
High transmissivity, ferromagnet-superconductor thin film nanocontacts are studied experimentally. Compared to nonmagnetic metal-superconductor contacts, Andreev reflection is strongly suppressed due to the spin polarization of conduction electrons in the ferromagnet. This effect is used to measure both the transparency of the interface and spin polarization of the direct current in the ferroma...
متن کاملAndreev reflection in graphene nanoribbons
We study Andreev reflection in graphene nanoribbon/superconductor hybrid junctions. By using a tightbinding approach and the scattering formalism we show that finite-size effects lead to notable differences with respect to the bulk-graphene case. At subgap voltages, conservation of pseudoparity, a quantum number characterizing the ribbon states, yields either a suppression of Andreev reflection...
متن کاملSpecular Andreev reflection in graphene.
By combining the Dirac equation of relativistic quantum mechanics with the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equation of superconductivity we investigate the electron-hole conversion at a normal-metal-superconductor interface in graphene. We find that the Andreev reflection of Dirac fermions has several unusual features: (1) the electron and hole occupy different valleys of the band structure; (2) at normal...
