Stochastic approach and fluctuation theorem for ion transport

TL;DR: The fluctuation theorem is shown to hold for the electric current with and without the displacement current in the ion transport process, including the effect of the displacementCurrent generated by the fluctuating electric field.

Scanning Probe Microscopy Investigation of Hybrid Nano Systems Comprising Functional Molecules and Two-Dimensional Layers

Current–voltage correlations in interferometers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated correlations of current at contacts and voltage fluctuations at voltage probes coupled to interferometers and derived a generating function for the joint distribution of voltage or occupation number at the probe and current fluctuations at a terminal of a conductor.

Pseudopath semiclassical approximation to transport through open quantum billiards: Dyson equation for diffractive scattering.

TL;DR: A diagrammatic expansion that allows a systematic summation over classical and pseudopaths is developed that renders the inclusion of an exponentially proliferating number of pseudopath combinations numerically tractable for both regular and chaotic billiards.

Faraday's effect for N-mesoscopic rings with charge discreteness

TL;DR: In this article, a sequence of 2N mesoscopic rings connected by nearest neighbor mutual inductances with a localized external magnetic field and charge discreteness was studied, and it was shown that when only one ring (principal) is pierced by the external flux, and for some values of that flux, we have zero current in the principal ring; but finite in the others 2 N − 1 rings.

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.
