Theoretical and experimental work concerned with dynamic fluctuations has developed into
a very active and fascinating subfield of mesoscopic physics. We present a review of this …

Several high-precision physics experiments are approaching a level of sensitivity at which
the intrinsic quantum nature of the experimental apparatus is the dominant source of …

Mesoscopic physics refers to the physics of structures larger than a nanometer (one billionth
of a meter) but smaller than a micrometer (one millionth of a meter). This size range is the …

The low-frequency current-fluctuation spectra of phase-coherent electron conductors are
related to the scattering matrix of the conductor. Each contact of the conductor is connected …

Using nonequilibrium Green's functions we calculate the spin-polarized current and shot
noise in a ferromagnet-quantum-dot-ferromagnet system. Both parallel (P) and antiparallel …

Thermal fluctuations at equilibrium and excess fluctuations in the presence of transport in
open multiprobe conductors are related to the scattering matrix of the conductor. The …

Noise in conductors transmitting electrons coherently between attached reservoirs is
calculated by following wave packets incident on the sample. The Pauli principle restricts the …

Towards exploring advanced applications of terahertz (THz) electromagnetic waves, great
efforts are being applied to develop a compact and sensitive THz receiver. Here, we …

Many magnetotransport experiments in two-dimensional electron systems have been
explained in recent years within the so-called edge-state model. Starting from a historical …

We examine the full counting statistics of quantum dots, which display super-Poissonian
shot noise. By an extension to a generic situation with many excited states we identify the …
