Relation between Johnson Noise and heating power in a two-terminal conductor


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We consider the Johnson noise of a two-dimensional, two-terminal electrical conductor for which the electron system obeys the Wiedemann-Franz law. We derive two simple and generic relations between the Johnson Noise temperature and the heat flux into the electron system. First, we consider the case where the electron system is heated by Joule heating from a DC current, and we show that there is a universal proportionality coefficient between the Joule power and the increase in Johnson noise temperature. Second, we consider the case where heat flows into the sample from an external source, and we derive a simple relation between the Johnson noise temperature and the heat flux across the boundary of the sample.
