The total current generated is shown to be far more accurate than the current produced with just one pump operating at a higher frequency. With the application of a perpendicular magnetic field the accuracy of quantization is shown to be $< $20 ppm for a current of $108.9 $pA. The scheme for parallel pumping presented in this work has applications in quantum information processing, the generation of single photons in pairs and bunches, neural networking and the development of a quantum standard for electrical current. All these applications will benefit greatly from the increase in output current without the characteristic decrease in accuracy as a result of high-frequency operation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v5", "updated": "2009-09-17T10:13:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "parallel quantized charge pumping", "application", "perpendicular magnetic field", "total current", "high-frequency operation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2009, "month": "Sep", "volume": 80, "number": 11, "pages": 113303 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009PhRvB..80k3303W" } } }
