We argue that the Raman intensity in a spin S two-leg spin-ladder has a pseudo-resonance peak, whose width is very small at large S. The pseudo-resonance originates from the existence of a local minimum in the magnon excitation spectrum,…
The rectified non-linear response of a clean undoped semiconductor to an AC electric field includes a well known intrinsic contribution -- the shift current. We show that when Kramers degeneracy is broken, a distinct second order rectified…

The low-energy electronic states of the iron-based superconductors are strongly affected by both spin-orbit coupling and, when present, by the nematic order. These two effects have different physical origins, yet they can lead to similar…
