Abstract

We consider a three-terminal Cooper-pair splitting device with a superconducting electrode tunnel coupled to two normal metal electrodes. We employ the Nambu-Gor'kov and Schwinger-Keldysh formalisms to describe the nonequilibrium transport properties of the device for arbitrary transmissions of the barriers and for a general electromagnetic environment. We derive the analytic expressions for the current and the nonlocal differential conductance, and analyze the limits of clean and dirty superconductivity.
