Electron-hole correlation in quantum-dot quantum wells (QDQW's) is investigated by incorporating Coulomb and exchange interactions into an empirical tight-binding model. Sufficient electron and hole single-particle states close to the band…
Electron-phonon scatterings in solid-state systems are pivotal processes in determining many key physical quantities such as charge carrier mobilities and thermal conductivities. Here, we report on the direct probing of phonon mode specific…
Because of their conveniently tunable optoelectronic properties, semiconductor nanocrystals have become established components for new devices and emergent technologies, in a broad range of applications which include agriculture, medicine,…
We analyze the heat power $P$ between electrons and phonons in thin metallic films deposited on free-standing dielectric membranes in a temperature range in which the phonon gas has a quasi two-dimensional distribution. The quantization of…
The effect of the resonance of electron scattering energy difference and phonon energy on the electron-phonon-electron interaction (EPEI) is studied. Results show that the resonance of electron transition energy and phonon energy can…
We report pronounced modifications of electronic and vibrational properties induced in FeO by cation vacancies, obtained within density functional theory incorporating strong local Coulomb interactions at Fe atoms. The insulating gap of FeO…
Electron-phonon interaction has been well known to create major resistance to electron transport in metals and semiconductors, whereas less studies were directed to its effect on the phonon transport, especially in semiconductors. We…
We investigate the effects of electron and acoustic-phonon confinement on the low-field electron mobility of thin square silicon nanowires (SiNWs) that are surrounded by SiO$_2$ and gated. We employ a self-consistent…
We present a theoretical analysis of the effect of dielectric confinement on the Coulomb interaction in dielectrically modulated quantum structures. We discuss the implications of the strong enhancement of the electron-hole and…
We calculate the electron-phonon scattering and binding in semiconducting carbon nanotubes, within a tight binding model. The mobility is derived using a multi-band Boltzmann treatment. At high fields, the dominant scattering is inter-band…
We consider the effect of electron-phonon interactions on edge states in quantum Hall systems with a single edge branch. The presence of electron-phonon interactions modifies the single-particle propagator for general quantum Hall edges,…
Using the Feynman path-integral formalism we study the polaron effects in quantum wires above a liquid helium film. The electron interacts with two-dimensional (2D) surface phonons, i.e. ripplons, and is confined in one dimension (1D) by an…
We propose a mechanism of energy relaxation for carriers confined in a non-polar quantum dot surrounded by an amorphous polar environment. The carrier transitions are due to their interaction with the oscillating electric field induced by…
We show that mismatch of the piezoelectric parameters between layers of multiple-quantum well structures leads to modification of the electron-phonon interaction. In particular, short-wavelength phonons propagating perpendicular to the…
In this review we discuss several fundamental processes taking place in semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dots, QDs) when their electron subsystem interacts with electromagnetic (EM) radiation. The physical phenomena of light emission and…
To understand the essential properties of Dirac crystals, such as their thermal conductivity, we require models that consider the interaction between Dirac electrons and dispersive acoustic phonons. The exceptionally high thermal…
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are quasi-one-dimensional systems with poor Coulomb screening and enhanced electron-phonon interaction, and are good candidates for excitons and exciton-phonon couplings in metallic state. Here we…
Using the Boltzmann equation for electrons in metals, we show that the optical phonons soften and have a dispersion due to screening in agreement with the results reported recently [M. Reizer, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 61}, 40 (2000)]. Additional…
We formulate and study the effective low-energy quantum theory of interacting long-wavelength acoustic phonons in carbon nanotubes within the framework of continuum elasticity theory. A general and analytical derivation of all three- and…
Strong electron-electron interactions are known to significantly modify the electron-phonon coupling relative to the predictions of density functional theory, but this effect is challenging to calculate with realistic theories of strongly…
