Optically-generated nonequilibrium phonon-distribution is used for exploring the origin of a nonlocal adiabatic response in an interacting Anderson insulator. Exposing the system to weak infrared radiation is shown to effectively suppress a…
We relate the phase separation observed in many crystals with pronounced electron correlations to the regions of negative electron compressibility. They were found in several models describing strong electron correlations. At low…
