Fluctuation-dissipation theorem for chiral systems in non-equilibrium
steady states
   [PDF]

Chenjie Wang, D. E. Feldman
We consider a three-terminal system with a chiral edge channel connecting the
source and drain terminals. Charge can tunnel between the chiral edge and a
third terminal. The third terminal is maintained at a different temperature and
voltage than the source and drain. We prove a general relation for the current
noises detected in the drain and third terminal. It has the same structure as
an equilibrium fluctuation-dissipation relation with the nonlinear response in
place of the linear conductance. The result applies to a general chiral system
and can be useful for detecting "upstream" modes on quantum Hall edges.
