Experimental Test of the Quantum Shot Noise Reduction Theory
Abstract
The quantum suppression of shot noise predicted for mesoscopic conductors is observed using absolute measurements of the equilibrium and nonequilibrium electrical fluctuations of a quantum point contact. The small energy ( $30--600\mathrm{mK}$) and low frequency ( $1--10\mathrm{kHz}$) used for measurements allow for a reliable quantitative experimental confirmation of the quantum noise theory. The noise reduction factor is found to be in excellent agreement with theoretical expectations, evolving from nearly unity at low electronic wave transmission to nearly zero on a conductance plateau.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
