The Physics of Graphene

TL;DR: In this paper, Katsnelson systematically presents the basic concepts of graphene physics in this fully revised second edition. And the author illustrates and explains basic concepts such as Berry phase, scaling, Zitterbewegung, Kubo, Landauer and Mori formalisms in quantum kinetics, chirality, plasmons, commensurateincommensurate transitions and many others.

Finite-frequency counting statistics of electron transport: Markovian theory

TL;DR: In this article, a theory of frequency-dependent counting statistics of electron transport through nanostructures within the framework of Markovian quantum master equations is presented, which allows the calculation of finite-frequency current cumulants of arbitrary order.

Inelastic interaction corrections and universal relations for full counting statistics in a quantum contact

TL;DR: In this paper, the interaction correction to full counting statistics (FCS) of electron transfer in a quantum contact originating from the electromagnetic environment surrounding the contact is presented as a sum of two terms corresponding to elastic-inelastic electron transfer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shot noise of coupled semiconductor quantum dots

TL;DR: In this article, a master equation approach is used to analyze the bias voltage dependence of the Fano factor as a measure of temporal correlations in tunneling current caused by Pauli's exclusion principle and the Coulomb interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Numerically exact full counting statistics of the nonequilibrium Anderson impurity model

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of electron-electron interactions on the time-dependent charge cumulants, first-passage time distributions, and $n$ -electron transfer distributions was explored.

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.
