Abstract
We theoretically investigate the charge noise and dephasing in a metallic device in close proximity to a spin incoherent Luttinger liquid with a small but finite current. The frequency dependence of the charge noise exhibits a loss of frequency peaks corresponding to the 2kF part of the density correlations in the electron liquid when the temperature T is increased from values below the magnetic exchange energy J of the electron gas to values above it. The dephasing rate in a nearby metallic nanostructure also shows a crossover for T~J and may exhibit a nonmonotonic temperature dependence. For a range of temperatures the dephasing rate decreases with increasing temperatures. The proposed experiments provide a convenient approach to probe the spin-incoherent Luttinger liquid and should be implementable in a wide variety of systems.
