The energy and charge fluxes carried by electrons in a two-terminal junction subjected to a random telegraph noise, produced by a single electronic defect, are analyzed. The telegraph processes are imitated by the action of a stochastic electric field that acts on the electrons in the junction. Upon averaging over all random events of the telegraph process, it is found that this electric field supplies, on the average, energy to the electronic reservoirs, which is distributed unequally between them: the stronger is the coupling of the reservoir with the junction, the more energy it gains. Thus the noisy environment can lead to a temperature gradient across an un-biased junction.

The influence of multiple vibrational modes on current fluctuations in electron transport through single-molecule junctions is investigated. Our analysis is based on a generic model of a molecular junction, which comprises a single electronic state o
n the molecular bridge coupled to multiple vibrational modes and fermionic leads, and employs a master equation approach. The results reveal that in molecular junctions with multiple vibrational modes already weak to moderate electronic-vibrational coupling may result in high noise levels, especially at the onset of resonant transport, in accordance with experimental findings of Secker et al..[1] The underlying mechanisms are analyzed in some detail.

We study the behavior of shot noise in resonant tunneling junctions far from equilibrium. Quantum-coherent elastic charge transport can be characterized by a transmission function, that is the probability for an incoming electron at a given energy to
tunnel through a potential barrier. In systems such as quantum point contacts, electronic shot noise is oftentimes calculated based on a constant (energy independent) transmission probability, a good approximation at low temperatures and under a small bias voltage. Here, we generalize these investigations to far from equilibrium settings by evaluating the contributions of electronic resonances to the electronic current noise. Our study extends canonical expressions for the voltage-activated shot noise and the recently discovered delta-T noise to the far from equilibrium regime, when a high bias voltage or a temperature difference is applied. In particular, when the Fermi energy is located on the shoulder of a broad resonance, we arrive at a formula for the shot noise revealing anomalous-nonlinear behavior at high bias voltage.
We study the influence of superconducting correlations on the electronic specific heat in a diffusive superconductor-normal metal-superconductor Josephson junction. We present a description of this system in the framework of the diffusive-limit Green
s function theory, taking into account finite temperatures, phase difference as well as junction parameters. We find that proximity effect may lead to a substantial deviation of the specific heat as compared to that in the normal state, and that it can be largely tuned in magnitude by changing the phase difference between the superconductors. A measurement setup to confirm these predictions is also suggested.
We analyze the short-time behavior of the heat and charge currents through nanoscale conductors exposed to a temperature gradient. To this end, we employ Luttingers thermomechanical potential to simulate a sudden change of temperature at one end of t
he conductor. We find that the direction of the charge current through an impurity is initially opposite to the direction of the charge current in the steady-state limit. Furthermore, we investigate the transient propagation of energy and particle density driven by a temperature variation through a conducting nanowire. Interestingly, we find that the velocity of the wavefronts of, both, the particle and the energy wave have the same constant value, insensitive to changes in the average electronic density. In the steady-state regime, we find that, at low temperatures, the local temperature and potential, as measured by a floating probe lead, exhibit characteristic oscillations due to quantum interference, with a periodicity that corresponds to half the Fermi wavelength of the electrons.
We study the interaction between two closely spaced but electrically isolated one-dimensional electrical wires by a drag experiment. In this work we experimentally demonstrate the generation of current in an unbiased (drag) wire, which results from t
he interactions with a neighboring biased (drive) wire. The direction of the drag current depends on the length of the one-dimensional wire with respect to the position of the barrier in the drag wire. When we additionally form a potential barrier in the drive wire, the direction of the drag current is determined by the relative position of the two barriers. We interpret this behavior in terms of electron excitations by phonon-mediated interactions between the two wires in presence of the electron scattering inside the drive wire.
