The idea to utilize not only the charge but also the spin of electrons in the operation of electronic devices has led to the development of spintronics, causing a revolution in how information is stored and processed. A novel advancement…
Motivated by recent work [D. Cubero et al., Phys. Rev. E 82, 041116 (2010)], we examine the mechanisms which determine current reversals in rocking ratchets as observed by varying the frequency of the drive. We found that a class of these…
Recently, a new quantum phase, the topological insulator, has been vividly investigated in a variety of materials. Its unique bandstructure allows for optical generation and control of spin-polarized currents based on the circular…
We investigate radiation-pressure induced generation of the frequency components at the difference-sideband in an optomechanical system, which beyond the conventional linearized description of optomechanical interactions between cavity…
We consider the spin-current driven dynamics of a magnetic nanostructure in a conductive magnetic wire under a heat gradient in an open circuit, spin Seebeck effect geometry. It is shown that the spin-current scattering results in a…
The coherent optical injection and temporal decay of spin and charge currents in semiconductor heterostructures is described microscopically, including excitonic effects, carrier LO-phonon and carrier-carrier scattering, as well as…
The one-loop electroweak radiative correction of the lowest order to lepton current for deep inelastic scattering of longitudinally polarized leptons by polarized nucleons is obtained in model independent way. The detailed numerical…
Cyclotron resonance has been measured in far-infrared transmission of GaAs/Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$As heterostructures with an etched hexagonal lateral superlattice. Non-linear dependence of the resonance position on magnetic field was observed as…
A beam of linearly polarized light transmitted through magnetically biased graphene can have its axis of polarization rotated by several degrees after passing the graphene sheet. This large Faraday effect is due to the action of the…
The problem of the surface current excitation in a conductive targets by a relativistic electron electric field as the origin of such radiation mechanisms as diffraction and transition radiation of relativistic electron was considered in…
Electronic ratchets transduce local spatial asymmetries into directed currents in the absence of a global drain bias, by rectifying temporal signals that reside far from thermal equilibrium. We show that the absence of a drain bias can…
Two-dimensional vortex dynamics in a ratchet washboard planar pinning potential (PPP) in the presence of thermal fluctuations is considered on the basis of a Fokker-Planck equation. Explicit expressions for two new nonlinear anisotropic…
We propose a microscopic theory of terahertz (THz) radiation generation on metal gratings under the action of femtosecond laser pulses. In contrast to previous models, only low-frequency currents inside the metal are considered without…
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 present theoretical results for superradiance, i.e. the collective coherent decay of a radiating system, in semiconductor structures. An optically active region can become superradiant if a strong magnetic field is applied. Pumping of…
We theoretically investigate the terahertz dielectric response of a semiconductor slab hosting an infrared photoinduced grating. The periodic structure is due to the charge carries photo-excited by the interference of two tilted infrared…
We present a theoretical investigation of terahertz (THz) generation in laser-induced gas plasmas. The work is strongly motivated by recent experimental results on micro-plasmas, but our general findings are not limited to such a…
Numerical simulations of assemblies of grains under cyclic loading exhibit ``granular ratcheting'': a small net deformation occurs with each cycle, leading to a linear accumulation of deformation with cycle number. We show that this is due…
We report on the observation of a terahertz radiation induced photon drag effect in epitaxially grown $n$- and $p$-type (Bi$_{1-x}$Sb$_{x}$)$_{2}$Te$_{3}$ three dimensional topological insulators with different antimony concentrations $x$…
We study the rectified transport of underdamped active noninteracting particles in an asymmetric periodic potential. It is found that the ratchet effect of active noninteracting particles occurs in a single direction (along the easy…
