Single-electron pumping in silicon quantum dots
... In 1909, Robert Millikan and Harvey Fletcher obtained experimental evidence suggesting that there is a smallest possible quantum of charge, which they proposed to be the charge of the electron [2]. Nowadays the absolute magnitude of electron charge is referred to as the elementary charge since it is ...

Enhancement of Tunneling from a Correlated 2D Electron System
... pled to a bath of harmonic oscillators [9,10], with the coupling strength controlled by the magnetic field. However, there are two distinctions from the standard formulation. First, the coupling mixes together the particle coordinate z and the momenta of the lattice. These two quantities have differ ...

Elements of the wave-particle duality of light
... The famous double-slit experiment, different versions of which we will come back to in the course of the thesis, serves as the canonical illustration of the wave-particle duality. Let us here present its simplified description: A light beam emerges from a source, propagates through two very small sl ...

Macroscopic Quantum Tunneling in a Josephson Junction Coupled
... We are studying what happens to the JJ when we connect it in parallel to an AlN dilatational resonator. The resonator consists of a piezoelectric crystal between two pieces of metal. The crystal produces a voltage when compressed, and it is compressed when there is a voltage across it. It behaves li ...

This suggests that there is a different kind of positional uncertainty for an object larger than the Planck mass, related to the existence of black holes. This is not unreasonable since the Compton wavelength is belo ...
