Quantum-circuit refrigerator
Quantum technology promises revolutionizing applications in information processing, communications, sensing and modelling. However, efficient on-demand cooling of the functional quantum degrees of freedom remains challenging in many solid-state implementations, such as superconducting circuits. Here we demonstrate direct cooling of a superconducting resonator mode using voltage-controllable ele...
متن کاملThe Quantum Absorption Refrigerator
A quantum absorption refrigerator driven by noise is studied with the purpose of determining the limitations of cooling to absolute zero. The model consists of a working medium coupled simultaneously to hot, cold and noise baths. Explicit expressions for the cooling power are obtained for Gaussian and Poisson white noise. The quantum model is consistent with the first and second laws of thermod...
متن کاملHigh discharge variability in neurons driven by current noise
Cortical neurons in vivo show a highly irregular spontaneous discharge activity, characterized by a gamma statistics and coefficient of variation around unity. Modelling studies showed that this irregularity is a consequence of the high-conductance state caused by the ongoing activity in the cortical network. Here, we investigate to which extent this high discharge variability can be reproduced...
متن کاملCurrent noise in ac-driven nanoscale conductors.
The theory for current fluctuations in ac-driven transport through nanoscale systems is put forward. By use of a generalized, non-Hermitian Floquet theory we derive novel explicit expressions for the time-averaged current and the zero-frequency component of the power spectrum of current fluctuations. A distinct suppression of both the zero-frequency noise and the dc current occurs for suitably ...
متن کاملCurrent noise and photon noise in quantum cascade lasers
A model for the photon noise and the current noise in quantum cascade lasers is presented. It is shown that compared to diode lasers quantum cascade lasers exhibit much less photon-number squeezing even when the noise in the drive current is suppressed well below the shot-noise value. The theoretical model presented in this paper self-consistently accounts for the suppression of the current noi...
