What can we learn from noise? - Mesoscopic nonequilibrium statistical physics.
TL;DR: The significance of fluctuation, or equivalently noise, as noise measurement enables us to address the fundamental aspects of a physical system, and what information can be deduced from the current noise measurement in mesoscopic systems is explained.

Asymptotics of Selberg-like integrals: The unitary case and Newton's interpolation formula
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the asymptotic behavior of the Selberg-like integral in the random matrix theory of electronic scattering in chaotic cavities supporting $N$ channels in the two attached leads.

Theoretical Comparison between the Flicker Noise Behavior of Graphene and of Ordinary Semiconductors
Massimo Macucci,Paolo Marconcini +1 more
TL;DR: This work focuses on the comparison between graphene and other semiconducting materials, concluding that a minimum of flicker noise at the charge neutrality point can appear only in the presence of a symmetric electron-hole behavior, a condition characteristic of graphene, but which is not found in the other commonly used semiconductors.

Fast Evaluation of the High-Frequency Channel Noise in Nanoscale MOSFETs
TL;DR: In this paper, an analytical model using the suppression factor for fast evaluation of the high-frequency channel noise in nanoscale MOSFETs for radio frequency and mixed-signal applications is proposed.

Spin Fluctuations in Quantized Transport of Magnetic Topological Insulators.
Yu-Hang Li,Ran Cheng +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that considering the exchange gaps at the mean-field level is inadequate to predict phase transitions between electronic states of distinct topology, and this effect, which has hitherto been overlooked, provides an alternative explanation of recent experiments on magnetic topological insulators.

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.
