Andreev conductance of chaotic and integrable quantum dots

We examine the voltage V and magnetic field B dependent Andreev conductance of a chaotic quantum clot coupled via point contacts to a normal metal and a superconductor. In the case where the contact to the superconductor dominates, we find that the conductance is consistent with the dot itself behaving as a superconductor-it appears as though Andreev reflections are occurring locally at the interface between the normal lead and the dot. This is contrasted with the behavior of an integrable dot, where for a similar strong coupling to the superconductor no such effect is seen. The voltage dependence of the Andreev conductance thus provides an extremely pronounced quantum signature of the nature of thr dot's classical dynamics. For the chaotic dot, we also study nonmonotonic reentrance effects that occur in both V and B.
