We discuss the spontaneous emission from a coherently prepared and microwave driven doublet of potentially closely spaced excited states to a common ground level. Multiple interference mechanisms are identified which may lead to…
We present an electrically driven plasmonic device consisting of a gold nanoparticle trapped in a gap between two electrodes. The tunneling current in the device generates plasmons, which decay radiatively. The emitted spectrum extends up…

We investigate the Fano-type line shape of the Ba mode of Y_{1-x}Ca_xBa_2Cu_3O_{6+y} films observed in Raman spectra with A_1g symmetry. The line shape is described with an extended Fano formula that allows us to obtain the bare phonon…

Fano resonance is believed to arise when a direct path interferes with a resonant path. We demonstrate that this is not true for chiral electronic transmission without additional direct paths. To address the Fano effect in chiral electronic…
We theoretically investigate the transport properties of a molecule embedded in one arm of a mesoscopic Aharonov-Bohm interferometer. Due to the presence of phonons the molecule level position ($\epsilon_d$) and the electron-electron…

Amplitude and phase of wavepackets encode the dynamics of quantum systems. However, the rapidity of electron dynamics on the attosecond timescale has precluded their complete measurement in the time domain. Here, we demonstrate that…
Fano Resonances are a new continuum excitation mode in light exotic nuclei. By the QPC model we explain these sharp and asymmetric structures as due to the coupling of a single particle elastic channel to the closed core-excited channels.…

When an atom or molecule absorbs a high-energy photon, an electron is emitted with a well-defined energy and a highly-symmetric angular distribution, ruled by energy quantization and parity conservation. These rules seemingly break down…
