Phase sensitive shot noise in an Andreev interferometer

We investigate nonequilibrium noise in a diffusive Andreev interferometer, in which currents emerging from two normal metal/superconductor (N-S) interfaces can interfere. We observe a modulation of the shot noise when the phase difference between the two N-S interfaces is varied by a magnetic flux. This is the signature of phase-sensitive fluctuations in the normal metal. The effective charge inferred from the shot noise measurement is close to qeff = 2e but shows phase-dependent deviations from 2e at finite energy, which we interpret as being due to pair correlations. Experimental data are in good agreement with predictions based on an extended Keldysh Green s function approach
