In this paper we report the first measurements of carrier mobilities in an inorganic nanocrystal: conducting polymer composite. The composite material in question (lead sulphide nanocrystals in the conducting polymer MEH-PPV was made using…
Porous graphene and graphite are increasingly utilized in electrochemical energy storage and solar-thermal applications due to their unique structural and thermal properties. In this study, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of the lattice…
We present the metamorphosis in the effective-potential profile of layered heterostructures, for several III-V semiconductor binary compounds, when the band mixing of light and heavy holes increases. A root-locus-like procedure, is directly…
A resolvent formalism is applied to the problem of inelastic scattering of an electron linearly coupled to a set of phonon modes. It is shown how the many phonon mode coupling and excitation can be reduced to a single phonon mode…
In this work, we revisit the issue of the nature of electronic transport in nickel oxide (NiO) and show that the widely used model of free small polaron hopping, initially raised to characterize transport in high-purity samples, is not…
Remote phonons from dielectrics are typically believed to degrade carrier mobility in adjacent semiconductors through Fr\"ohlich scattering of polar-optical phonons (POPs). Here, we challenge this conventional view by demonstrating that in…
Lead halide perovskite semiconductors are soft, polar, materials. The strong driving force for polaron formation (the dielectric electron-phonon coupling) is balanced by the light band effective-masses, leading to a strongly-interacting…
We theoretically study the electrical, thermal and thermoelectric transport properties of graphene nanoribbons under torsional deformations. The modelling follows a nonequilibrium Green's function approach in the ballistic transport regime,…
The transport properties of carriers in semiconducting graphene nanoribbons are studied by comparing the effects of phonon, impurity, and line-edge roughness scattering. It is found that scattering from impurities located at the surface of…
Theoretical calculations of carrier transport in single-walled carbon nanotubes are compared with recent experiments. Carrier-phonon scattering is accounted for using the deformation potential approximation. Comparing with experiments, a…
We study an electron that interacts with phonons or other linear or nonlinear excitations as it resonantly tunnels. The method we use is based on mapping a many-body problem in a large variational space exactly onto a one-body problem. The…
We analyze generation of phonons in tunneling structures with two electron states coupled by electron-phonon interaction. The conditions of strong vibration excitations are determined and dependence of non-equilibrium phonon occupation…
A semi-analytical model for studying thermal transport at the nanoscale, able to accurately describe both the effect of out of equilibrium transport and the thermal transfer at interfaces, is presented. Our approach is based on the…
We present a novel theory of charge-carrier mobilities in organic molecular crystals of high purity. Our approach is based on Holstein's original concept of small-polaron bands but generalized with respect to the inclusion of nonlocal…
The quality of the silicon-oxide interface plays a crucial role in fabricating reproducible silicon spin qubits. In this work we characterize interface quality by performing mobility measurements on silicon Hall bars. We find a peak…
Recent experiments suggest the possibility to tune superconductivity in metallic nanowires by application of modest gate voltages. It is largely debated whether the effect is due to an electric field at the superconductor surface or small…
Ballistic electron transport is a key requirement for existence of a topological phase transition in proximitized InSb nanowires. However, measurements of quantized conductance as direct evidence of ballistic transport have so far been…
The variety of nanowire crystal structures gave rise to unique and novel transport phenomena. In particular, we have explored the superlattice profile generated by strain field modulation in twinplane nanowires for the tuning of transport…
We study the effect of diagonal and off-diagonal electron-phonon coupling in the ground state properties of the t-J model. Adiabatic and quantum phonons are considered using Lanczos techniques. Charge tiles and stripe phases with mobile…
The nonlinear Hall effect (NLHE) is a phenomenon which could produce a transverse Hall voltage in a time-reversal-invariant material. Here, we report the real space characterization of NLHE evaluated through quantum transport in TaIrTe4…
