Using time-resolved charge detection in a double quantum dot; we present an experimental test of the fluctuation theorem. The fluctuation theorem; a result from nonequilibrium statistical mechanics; quantifies the ratio of occurrence of fluctuations that drive a small system against the direction favored by the second law of thermodynamics. Here; these fluctuations take the form of single electrons flowing against the source-drain bias voltage across the double quantum dot. Our results; covering configurations close to as well as far from equilibrium; agree with the theoretical predictions; when the finite bandwidth of the charge detection is taken into account. In further measurements; we study a fluctuation relation that is a generalization of the Johnson-Nyquist formula and relates the second-order conductance to the voltage dependence of the noise. Current and noise can be determined with the time-resolved charge detection method. Our measurements confirm the fluctuation relation in the nonlinear transport regime of the double quantum dot. © 2013 American Institute of Physics;
