Effect of vortices on the spin-flip lifetime of atoms in superconducting atom-chips (2009)

Nogues, Gilles, Roux, Cédric, Nirrengarten, Thomas, Lupascu, Adrian, Emmert, Andreas, Brune, Michel, ...

We study theoretically the lifetime of magnetically trapped atoms in the close vicinity of a type-II superconducting surface, in the context of superconducting atom-chips. We account for the magnetic...

Single Carbon Nanotube Transistor at GHz Frequency (2008)

Chaste, Julien, Lechner, Lorenz, Morfin, Pascal, Feve, Gwendal, Kontos, Takis, Berroir, Jean-Marc, ...

We report on microwave operation of top-gated single carbon nanotube transistors. From transmission measurements in the 0.1-1.6 GHz range, we deduce device transconductance gm and gate-nanotube...

Peak-effect and surface crystal-glass transition for surface-pinned vortex array (2004)

Placais, Bernard, Lutke-Entrup, Norbert, Bellessa, Joel, Mathieu, Patrice, Simon, Yvan, Sonin, Edouard

We present a theoretical and experimental study of the peak effect in the surface pinning of vortices. It is associated with a sharp transition in the vortex slippage length which we relate to a...

Hanbury-Brown Twiss correlations to probe the population statistics of GHz photons emitted by conductors (2004)

Gabelli, Julien, Reydellet, Laure-Helene, Feve, Gwendal, Berroir, Jean-Marc, Placais, Bernard, Roche, Patrice, ...

We present the first study of the statistics of GHz photons in quantum circuits, using Hanbury-Brown and Twiss correlations. The superpoissonian and poissonian photon statistics of thermal and...
