The operation of quantum dots at highest possible temperatures is desirable for many applications. Capacitance-voltage spectroscopy (C(V)-spectroscopy) measurements are an established instrument to analyze the electronic structure and…
About a half of the Fermi surface in rare-earth tritellurides RT e3 becomes gapped below the transition to a charge-density-wave (CDW) state, as revealed by ARPES data. However, the observed jump in resistivity during the CDW transition is…
We propose a simple, self-consistent kinetic model for the evolution of a mixture of droplets and vapor expanding adiabatically in vacuum after rapid, almost isochoric heating. We study the evolution of the two-phase fluid at intermediate…
Spontaneous formation of charge density wave (CDW) superstructures in monolayers (MLs) of a two-dimensional (2D) crystal lattice is fundamental in understanding its complex quantum states. We report a successful top-down liquid phase…
Indium incorporation into wurtzite (0001)-oriented In$_{x}$Al$_{y}$Ga$_{1-x-y}$N layers grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy was studied as a function of the growth temperature (565-635 $^{\circ}$C) and the AlN mole fraction…
We study the exciton gas-liquid transition in GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum wells. Below a critical temperature, Tc=4.8K, and above a threshold laser power density the system undergoes a phase transition into a liquid state. We determine the…
The lattice thermodynamics of a 1T-TaS2 layer, e.g. the spontaneous formation of a sqrt13*sqrt13 commensurate charge density wave (CCDW) and vibrations around the equilibrium position, is calculated by ab initio molecular dynamics. Based on…
We study the evolution of accreting oxygen-neon (ONe) white dwarfs (WDs), with a particular emphasis on the effects of the presence of the carbon-burning products $\mathrm{^{23}Na}$ and $\mathrm{^{25}Mg}$. These isotopes lead to substantial…
The dynamic response of InAs/GaAs self-assembled quantum dots (QDs) to strain is studied experimentally by periodically modulating the QDs with a surface acoustic wave and measuring the QD fluorescence with photoluminescence and resonant…
Electron capture and emission by Coulomb scattering in self-assembled quantum dot (QD) devices is studied theoretically. While the dependence of the Coulomb scattering (Auger) rates on the local wetting layer electron density has been a…
A lattice model for active matter is studied numerically, showing that it displays wettings transitions between three distinctive phases when in contact with an impenetrable wall. The particles in the model move persistently, tumbling with…
The radiative and non-radiative decay rates of InAs quantum dots are measured by controlling the local density of optical states near an interface. From time-resolved measurements we extract the oscillator strength and the quantum…
We report low-temperature magneto-transport measurements of an undoped Si/SiGe asymmetric double quantum well heterostructure. The density in both layers is tuned independently utilizing a top and a bottom gate, allowing the investigation…
In the polar semiconductor samples of the self-organized quantum dots, grown by the Stranski-Krastanow growth method, the lowest energy extended states of the electronic excitations are assumed to be the wetting-layer states. The coupling…
The dynamics of liquid condensation on a substrate or within a capillary is studied when the wetting film grows via interface-limited growth. We use a phenomenological time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau (TDGL)-type model with long-range…
Wetting transitions have been predicted and observed to occur for various combinations of fluids and surfaces. This paper describes the origin of such transitions, for liquid films on solid surfaces, in terms of the gas-surface interaction…
Using single crystal neutron and x-ray diffraction, we discovered a charge density wave (CDW) below 320 K, which accounts for the long-sought origin of the heat capacity and resistivity anomalies in UPt2Si2. The modulation wavevector, Qmod,…
The thermodynamic behavior of QCD matter at high temperature is currently studied by lattice QCD theory. The main features are the fast rise of the energy density $\epsilon$ around the critical temperature $T_c$ and the large trace anomaly…
In this paper, we present a model for the long-term evolution of the merger of two unequal mass C/O white dwarfs (WDs). After the dynamical phase of the merger, magnetic stresses rapidly redistribute angular momentum, leading to nearly…
The temperature dependence of the integrated optical conductivity I(T) reflects the changes of the kinetic energy as spin and charge correlations develop. It provides a unique way to explore experimentally the kinetic properties of strongly…
