Mesoscopic Heat Multiplier and Fractionalizer (2306.10576v2)

Published 18 Jun 2023 in cond-mat.mes-hall

Abstract: Local measurements of heat flux in Quantum Hall devices can deviate from the expected equilibrium heat flux due to interactions. We present a model of a simple mesoscopic device consisting of an Ohmic reservoir contacted by chiral edge states. In contrast to the well studied heat Coulomb blockade (HCB) effect, we report the opposite phenomenon, an enhancement of the heat flux carried by an edge state in the HCB regime due to an additional contribution of the collective charge mode via the fluctuating potential of the Ohmic contact. We discuss the thermometry of these correlared states and discuss their detectability. The enhancement effect is also reflected in modified correlation functions, which influences the electrical and thermal linear response coefficients in a tunneling probe measurement. On a technical level, we introduce a Langevin formalism that elucidates the role of these extra fluctuations in electrical and thermal transport, both in uniformly heated and Joule heated devices and argue that our approach has advantages in the latter scenario compared to the standard $P (E)$ theory. We report a violation of the Wiedemann-Franz law, which is modified by the external resistance of the mesoscopic circuit.
