Over the last few years there has been a growing interest toward the use of superconducting microwave microresonators operated in quasi-thermal equilibrium mode, especially applied to single particle detection. Indeed, previous devices…
We study the heat relaxation in current biased metallic films in the regime of strong electron-phonon coupling. A thermal gradient in the direction normal to the film is predicted, with a spatial temperature profile determined by the…
We have measured shot noise in metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes of length L=1 $\mu$m and have found strong suppression of noise with increasing voltage. We conclude that the coupling of electron and phonon baths at temperatures $T_e$…
Weak electron-phonon interaction in metals at low temperatures forms the basis of operation for cryogenic hot-electron bolometers and calorimeters. Standard power laws, describing the heat flow in the majority of experiments, have been…
Antiferromagnetic materials with strong spin-phonon coupling have the potential for spintronic applications. Here, we report the structural, magnetic, and vibrational properties of 12R-BaTi0.4Mn0.6O3. Temperature-dependent magnetization…
We have measured directly the thermal conductance between electrons and phonons in ultra-thin Hf and Ti films at millikelvin temperatures. The experimental data indicate that electron-phonon coupling in these films is significantly…
Coupling between electrons and phonons (lattice vibrations) drives the formation of the electron pairs responsible for conventional superconductivity. The lack of direct evidence for electron-phonon coupling in the electron dynamics of the…
Recent optical studies in c-axis oriented superconducting MgB$_2$ films indicate that the electron-phonon coupling is weak [tu01]. We reinforce this conclusion by examining the raw reflectance data; its frequency dependence is incompatible…
We theoretically study the heat flux between electrons and phonons in a thin metallic film embedded in a suspended dielectric slab (called a \textit{membrane}, in accordance with the established nomenclature), forming a layered structure.…
In this paper we report the results of electrical resistivity (1.5K < T <300K) and point contact spectroscopy (PCS) measurements on single crystals of metallic sodium tungsten bronze with varying sodium content. We have shown that the…
For a detailed study on the semiconductor to metal transition (SMT) in ZnO thin films doped with Al in the concentration range from 0.02 to 2%, we grew these films on (0001) sapphire substrates using sequential pulsed laser deposition. It…
We show how the coupling between the phonons and electrons in a strongly correlated metal can result in phonon frequencies which have a non-monotonic temperature dependence. Dynamical mean-field theory is used to study the Hubbard-Holstein…
Varying the thermal boundary conductance at metal-dielectric interfaces is of great importance for highly integrated electronic structures such as electronic, thermoelectric and plasmonic devices where heat dissipation is dominated by…
We have employed noise thermometry for investigations of thermal relaxation between the electrons and the substrate in nanowires patterned from 40-nm-thick titanium film on top of silicon wafers covered by a native oxide. By controlling the…
We report on the study of phonon properties and electron-phonon coupling in thin NbTiN films, which are intensively exploited in superconducting devices. Studied NbTiN films with thicknesses less than 10~nm are disordered with respect to…
The transfer of heat between electrons and phonons plays a key role for thermal management in future nanowire-based devices, but only a few experimental measurements of electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling in nanowires are available. Here, we…
Here we examine the role of the amorphous insulating substrate in the thermal relaxation in thin NbN, InO$_x$, and Au/Ni films at temperatures above 5 K. The studied samples are made up of metal bridges on an amorphous insulating layer…
We calculate the critical temperature $T_c$ and the superconducting energy gaps $\Delta_n$ of a thin film superconductor system, where $\Delta_n$ is the superconducting energy gap of the $n$-th subband. Since the quantization of both the…
One of the salient features of graphene is the very high carrier mobility that implies tremendous potential for use in electronic devices. Unfortunately, transport measurements find the expected high mobility only in freely suspended…
We propose that phonons coupled to electrons play an important role in both the fundamental phenomenology of electron spin resonance as well as the interpretation of such measurements. By including spin-dependent electron-phonon…
