We report on the frequency conversions of terahertz (THz) waves at ultrafast time boundaries created via femtosecond laser-induced air-to-plasma phase transitions. Our combined experimental and theoretical approach reveals that the abrupt…
We theoretically investigated the scheme allowing to avoid destructive space-charge instabilities and to obtain a strong gain at microwave and THz frequencies in semiconductor superlattice devices. Superlattice is subjected to a microwave…
We introduce a new simplified method for computing the electron field emission current in short carbon nanotubes using ab-initio computation in periodic simulation cells. We computed the evolution of the wave functions using Time-Dependent…
We introduce two simple models to study the effect of a spatially localized transverse electric field on the low-energy electronic structure of semiconducting carbon nanotubes. Starting from the Dirac Hamiltonian for the low energy states…
The rates of electron scattering via phonons in the armchair single-wall carbon nanotubes were calculated by using the improved scattering theory within the tight-binding approximation. Therefore, the problem connected with the discrepancy…
We demonstrate a Terahertz photomixer pumped by mid-infrared photons at 10$\mu$m wavelength. The device is based on a dual-antenna architecture, in which a two-dimensional array of mid-infrared patch-antenna resonators is connected to the…
We calculate the magnetic moment caused by the persistent currents in polygonal carbon nanotube tori by the tight binding model. The polygonal CNT tori are formed by introducing heptagonal and pentagonal defects along the inner hole and…
The interactions between the layers of double-walled carbon nanotubes induce measurable shift of the G bands relative to the isolated layers. While experimental data on this shift in free-standing double-walled carbon nanotubes has been…
Towards the development of a useful mechanism for hydrogen storage, we have studied the hydrogenation of single-walled carbon nanotubes with atomic hydrogen using core-level photoelectron spectroscopy and x-ray absorption spectroscopy. We…
We derive a low-energy effective model of metallic zigzag carbon nanotubes at half filling. We show that there are three important features characterizing the low-energy properties of these systems: the long-range Coulomb interaction,…
Photocurrent generation is studied in a system composed of a quantum wire with side-coupled quantum rings. The current generation results from the interplay of the particular geometry of the system and the use of circularly polarized…
Parametric electron pump through superconductor-carbon-nanotube based molecular devices was investigated. It is found that a dc current, which is assisted by resonant Andreev reflection, can be pumped out from such molecular device by a…
We probe the high frequency emission of a carbon nanotube based Josephson junction and compare it to its DC Josephson current. The AC emission is probed by coupling the carbon nanotube to an on-chip detector (a…
Electron transmission and wave functions through junctions with a pair of a pentagonal defect and a heptagonal defect connecting two metallic carbon nanotubes are analyzed by the analytical calculation with the effective mass equation. The…
Microscopic mechanisms of externally controlled reversable heat flow through the carbon nanotube junctions (NJ) are studied theoretically. Our model suggests that the heat is transfered along the tube section ${\cal T}$ by electrons ($e$)…
Accelerator-based terahertz (THz) radiation has been expected to realize a high-power broadband source. Employing a low-emittance and short-bunch electron beam at a high repetition rate, a scheme of coherent diffraction-radiation in an…
We investigate transport through a single impurity in metallic zigzag carbon nanotube and find the conductance sensitively depends on the impurity strength and the bias voltage. It is rather interesting that interplay between the…
The terahertz emission from difference-frequency in biased superlattices is calculated with the excitonic effect included. Owing to the doubly resonant condition and the excitonic enhancement, the typical susceptibility can be as large as…
A novel method is presented for generating radiation using the beat wave associated with a bi-frequency laser pulse, to excite plasma oscillations in a plasma slab with a density gradient. By resonantly exciting a plasma wave, it can be…
Although carbon nanotubes consist of honeycomb carbon, they have never been fabricated from graphene directly. Here, it is shown by quantum molecular-dynamics simulations and classical continuum-elasticity modeling, that graphene…
