Electrons in a metal are indistinguishable particles that interact strongly with other electrons
and their environment. Isolating and detecting a single flying electron after propagation, in a …

Quantum electronics has significantly evolved over the last decades. Where initially the clear
focus was on light–matter interactions, nowadays approaches based on the electron's wave …

The aim of this book is to introduce the basic elements of the scattering matrix approach to
transport phenomena in dynamical quantum systems of non-interacting electrons. This …

We study the injection n of electrons in a quantum conductor using voltage pulses applied
on a contact. We particularly consider the case of Lorentzian voltage pulses. When carrying …

Single‐electron sources enable electron quantum optics experiments where single
electrons emitted in a ballistic electronic interferometer play the role of a single photon …

We propose a mesoscopic circuit in the quantum Hall effect regime comprising two
uncorrelated single-particle sources and two distant Mach-Zehnder interferometers with …

Multi-particle sources constitute an interesting new paradigm following the recent
development of on-demand single-electron sources. Versatile devices can be designed …

Waiting time is an important transport quantity that is complementary to average current and
its fluctuation. So far all the studies of waiting time distribution (WTD) are limited to steady …

Recently demonstrated solid-state single-electron sources generate different quantum states
depending on their operation condition. For adiabatic and nonadiabatic sources, we …

Optimal single electron sources emit regular streams of particles, displaying no low-
frequency charge current noise. Because of the wave packet nature of the emitted particles …
