Description

The correlations of currents flowing in mesoscopic rings induced by both classical and quantum correlations of photons have been considered. The system of two and three rings in the presence of three types of non-classical radiation, factorizable (uncorrelated), separable (classically correlated) and entangled (quantum mechanically correlated), has been studied. The results show that entangled photons can produce entangled electrons
