Five-terminal quantized transconductance originating from symmetric quantum fluctuations
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: We consider the renormalization of transport in a quantum contact by the external electromagnetic environment and show that weak quantum fluctuations from a symmetric environment can lead to a quantized transconductance in five-terminal contacts. This mechanism does not work for fewer terminals. We present an implementation of the environment and investigate several example quantum contacts where the quantization takes place.
