Abstract: In this paper, we demonstrate that the hybrid normal-superconducting-normal (NSN) structure has potential for a multifunctional thermal device which could serve for heat flux control and cooling of microstructures. By adopting the scattering matrix approach,… read more here.

Abstract: Electrons in two different normal metallic electrodes attached to a sufficiently thin superconducting island may become entangled due to the effect of Cooper pair splitting. This phenomenon is of fundamental importance and may also have… read more here.
