The energy and thermal effects of mesoscopic capacitance coupling LC circuit at finite temperature

Abstract

For the mesoscopic capacitance coupling LC circuit, the Hamiltonian is given by the canonical quantization. The Hamiltonian operator is diagonalized by a unitary transformation. The ensemble average energy and its fluctuations are derived by ensemble theory. In virtue of the generalized Hellmann-Feynman theorem, the quantum fluctuations of charge and self-conductance magnetic flux for the system at finite temperature are investigated. It is found that, the quantum fluctuations of charge and self-conductance magnetic flux depend on the temperature as well as the parameters of the circuit components.
