The noise susceptibility of a coherent conductor

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the sensitivity of a coherent conductor to an ac excitation, i.e., the in-phase and out-of-phase response of current noise density S ( ) measured at frequency 0.

Noise of a Superconducting Magnetic Flux Sensor Based on a Proximity Josephson Junction

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate simultaneous measurements of DC transport properties and flux noise of a hybrid superconducting magnetometer based on the proximity effect (superconducting quantum interference proximity transistor, SQUIPT) using a cryogenic amplifier operating in the frequency range of a few MHz.

Full Counting statistics of level renormalization in electron transport through double quantum dots

TL;DR: It is clearly illustrated that the energy renormalization gives rise to a dynamic charge blockade mechanism, which eventually results in super-Poissonian noise.

Transition from metallic to tunneling regimes in superconducting microconstrictions: Excess current, charge imbalance, and supercurrent conversion

TL;DR: In this paper, the Bogoliubov equations were used to model the transmission and reflection of particles at the tunnel junction of normal-superconducting micro-constriction contacts, and a simple theory for the $I\ensuremath{-}V$ curves of normal superconducting contacts was proposed to describe the crossover from metallic to tunnel junction behavior.
