✦ Synopsis

A universal spectral equation is derived for Andreev bound states in superconducting quantum junctions, relating bound state energies with the normal electron scattering amplitudes. The equation is applied to calculation of d.c. Josephson effect in mesoscopic S-2DEG-S junctions.

We discuss how to control dc Josephson current by influencing the structure and nonequilibrium population of Andreev levels via external electrostatic gates, current injection and electromagnetic radiation. In particular we will consider the 'giant' Josephson critical current in 'long' SIS tunnel ju

We study the normal state conductance and the Josephson current in a superconductor-2DEG-superconductor structure where the size/shape of the 2DEG-region can be modified by an additional side-gate electrode. The considered transport properties follow from the retarded Green function which we compute

Phonon heat transport in mesoscopic systems is investigated using methods analogous to the Landauer description of electrical conductance. A 'universal heat conductance' expression that depends on the properties of the conducting pathway only through the mode cutoff frequencies is derived. Correctio
