Measurement of finite frequency noise cross-correlations with a resonant circuit
Résumé
The measurement of finite frequency noise cross-correlations represents an experimental challenge in mesoscopic physics. Here we propose a generalisation of the resonant LC circuit setup of Lesovik and Loosen which allow to probe directly such cross-correlations by measuring the charge fluctuations on the plates of a capacitor. The measuring circuit collects noise contributions at the resonant frequency of the LC circuit. Auto-correlation noise can be canceled out by switching the wires and making two distinct measurements. The measured cross-correlations then depend of four non-symmetrized correlators. This detection method is applied to a normal metal three terminal device. We subsequently discuss to what extent the measurement circuit can detect electron-antibunching and what singularities appear in the spectral density of noise cross-correlations.
