Quantum Noise in Mesoscopic Physics (NATO Science Series II: Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry) [Hardcover]

Yuli V. Nazarov (Editor)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 1, 2003 | ISBN-10: 140201239X | ISBN-13: 978-1402012396 | Edition: 1

The field of quantum noise in mesoscopic physics has experienced intensive development for more than a decade, and there is as yet no sign of a slow-down. This book presents a collection of reviews in which the leading research teams summarize their most recent results and chart new directions. Taken together, the reviews give a snapshot of the modern state of the field, which is not yet coherent. The book thus presents different approaches and conflicting views, as well as contradictory results and interpretations. The book is divided into three parts, according to the three main research streams: shot noise, quantum measurement and entanglement, and full counting statistics.

More About the Author

Yuli V. Nazarov (1960) was born in Siberia, city of Krasnoyarsk. He has been schooled in theoretical physics in famous Landau Institute (Ph. D. 1985).
He works in quantum transport (former mesoscopic physics) since emergence of the field in late eighties.
His passion for quantum devices has brought him to Delft, the Netherlands (since 1993). He was one of the co-founders of Kavli Institute of Nanoscience Delft.
Beside active research (200 publications, 6,000 citations) he teaches Advanced Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Transport.
