Single Charge Current in a Normal Mesoscopic Region Attached to Superconductor Leads via a Coupled Poisson Nonequilibrium Green Function Formalism by David Verrilli, F. P. Marin, Rafael Rangel

“…We study the I-V characteristic of mesoscopic systems or quantum dot (QD) attached to a pair of superconducting leads. Interaction effects in the QD are considered through the charging energy of the QD; that is, the treatment of current transport under a voltage bias is performed within a coupled Poisson nonequilibrium Green function (PNEGF) formalism. …”

Beyond sensitivity: what are the enabling opportunities of OPM-MEG? by Timothy P. L. Roberts, Timothy P. L. Roberts, Charlotte Birnbaum, Luke Bloy, William Gaetz, William Gaetz

“…While optically-pumped magnetometer (OPM) technology offers a number of compelling advantages over its SQUID predecessor for magnetoencephalography (MEG), many studies and viewpoints focus on issues of (i) scalp placement, with commensurate increases in sensitivity to weak magnetic fields and (ii) room temperature operation (without the need for baths of liquid helium to maintain superconducting properties of SQUIDs). This article addresses another unique and tantalizing opportunity—the ability for the OPM array to be “wearable”, and thus to move with the participant. …”
