Mesoscopic Noise Theory: Microscopics, or Phenomenology?
F. Green, M. P. Das
Abstract
We argue, physically and formally, that existing diffusive models of noise yield inaccurate microscopic descriptions of nonequilibrium current fluctuations. The theoretical shortfall becomes pronounced in quantum-confined metallic systems, such as the two-dimensional electron gas. In such systems we propose a simple experimental test of mesoscopic validity for diffusive theory's central claim: the smooth crossover between Johnson-Nyquist and shot noise.
