Atomic “bomb testing”: the Elitzur–Vaidman experiment violates the Leggett–Garg inequality (2016)
Journal Article
Robens, C., Alt, W., Emary, C., Meschede, D., & Alberti, A. (2017). Atomic “bomb testing”: the Elitzur–Vaidman experiment violates the Leggett–Garg inequality. Applied physics. B, Lasers and optics, 123(1), Article 12. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00340-016-6581-y

Elitzur and Vaidman have proposed a measurement scheme that, based on the quantum superposition principle, allows one to detect the presence of an object—in a dramatic scenario, a bomb—without interacting with it. It was pointed out by Ghirardi that... Read More about Atomic “bomb testing”: the Elitzur–Vaidman experiment violates the Leggett–Garg inequality.

Time-of-Flight measurements of Single-Electron wave packets in quantum hall edge states (2016)
Journal Article
Kataoka, M., Johnson, N., Emary, C., See, P., Griffiths, J., Jones, G., …Janssen, T. (2016). Time-of-Flight measurements of Single-Electron wave packets in quantum hall edge states. Physical review letters, 116(12), Article 126803. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.126803

We report time-of-flight measurements on electrons traveling in quantum Hall edge states. Hot-electron wave packets are emitted one per cycle into edge states formed along a depleted sample boundary. The electron arrival time is detected by driving a... Read More about Time-of-Flight measurements of Single-Electron wave packets in quantum hall edge states.

Phonon emission and arrival times of electrons from a single-electron source (2016)
Journal Article
Emary, C., Dyson, A., Ryu, S., Sim, H., & Kataoka, M. (2016). Phonon emission and arrival times of electrons from a single-electron source. Physical Review B, 93(3), Article ARTN 035436. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.93.035436

In recent charge-pump experiments, single electrons are injected into quantum Hall edge channels at energies significantly above the Fermi level. We consider here the relaxation of these hot edge-channel electrons through longitudinal-optical-phonon... Read More about Phonon emission and arrival times of electrons from a single-electron source.
