Semiclassical Prediction for Shot Noise in Chaotic Cavities

Abstract

We show that in clean chaotic cavities the power of shot noise takes a universal form. Our predictions go beyond previous results from random-matrix theory, in covering the experimentally relevant case of few channels. Following a semiclassical approach we evaluate the contributions of quadruplets of classical trajectories to shot noise. Our approach can be extended to a variety of transport phenomena as illustrated for the crossover between symmetry classes in the presence of a weak magnetic field.
