APAndrei I. PavlovMKMikhail N. Kiselev

Key Points

  • The research aims to establish universal relations between thermoelectric properties and noise in mesoscopic transport through tunnel junctions.
  • Developed a unified theory for weakly probed differential observables in transport experiments.
  • Applied the theory to various quantum systems including Kondo models and quantum dots.
  • Examined the relationship between conductance, thermoelectrics, and noise.
  • Found universal relations connecting charge and heat currents, exemplified by the Wiedemann-Franz law.
  • Demonstrated that deviations from these relations signify additional energy scales in the system.
  • Showed the applicability of the theory across multiple quantum systems.

Abstract

We develop a unified theory of weakly probed differential observables for currents and noise in transport experiments. Our findings uncover a set of universal transport relations between thermoelectric and noise properties of a system probed through a tunnel contact, with the Wiedemann-Franz law being just one example of such universality between charge and heat currents. We apply this theory to various quantum systems, including multichannel Kondo, quantum Hall and Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev quantum dots, resonant impurity, and two-stage Kondo models and demonstrate that each of the microscopic theories is characterized by a set of universal relations connecting conductance and thermoelectrics with noise. Violations of these relations indicate additional energy scales emerging in a system.
