Control is exerted over the exciton-polariton physics in metal - Poly(9,9-dioctyl fluorene) - metal microcavities via conformational changes to the polymer backbone. Using thin-film samples containing increasing fractions of $\beta$-phase…

We study the temperature-dependent dephasing rate of excitons in chains of chromophores, accounting for scattering on static disorder as well as acoustic phonons in the host matrix. From this we find a powerlaw temperature dependence of the…

Exciton-polaritons provide a versatile platform for the study of a wide range of phenomena, including polariton lasers, topological polaritons, and bosonic condensation. Transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers host excitons with large…

We compute the transient dynamics of phonons in contact with high energy "hot" charge carriers in 12 polar and non-polar semiconductors, using a first-principles Boltzmann transport framework. For most materials, we find that the decay in…

Nonradiative exciton lifetime in silicon is determined by comparison of the experimental and theoretical curves of bulk minority charge carriers lifetime on doping and excitation levels. This value is used to analyze the influence of…

We present a microscopic model for exciton-induced transparency (ExIT) in a hybrid system comprised of an emitter resonantly coupled to a surface plasmon in a metal-dielectric structure. We obtain an effective optical polarizability of such…

Radioactivity is understood to be described by a Poisson process, yet some measurements of nuclear decays appear to exhibit unexpected variations. Generally, the isotopes reporting these variations have long half lives, which are plagued by…

The quasiparticle decays due to electron-electron interaction in silicon are studied by means of first-principles all-electron GW approximation. The spectral function as well as the dominant relaxation mechanisms giving rise to the finite…

The ultrafast conversion of coherent excitons into incoherent excitons, as well as the subsequent exciton diffusion and thermalization, are central topics in current scientific research due to their relevance in optoelectronics,…

We investigate a plasmonic electro-optic modulator with an extinction ratio exceeding 1 dB/um by engineering the optical mode to be in-plane with the graphene layer, and show how lowering the operating temperature enables steeper switching.…

Spatio-temporal control of ultrafast plasmon resonances has gained research interest in recent years because of their tremendous implications in nonlinear optics and ultrafast quantum technology. In particular, the lifetime of ultrashort…

Luminescence properties of colloidal quantum dots have found applications in imaging, light-sources, and displays. Despite wide interest, several experimental observations from these quantum dots, such as the short lifetime on the scale of…

Owing to their small binding energies, excitons in bulk semiconductors typically exhibit a sharp optical peak at low temperatures only. This limitation can be overcome by single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and other low-dimensional…

The non-local dielectric response theory is extended to describe oblique reflection of light from quantum wells subjected to the magnetic field. This allows us to calculate the dispersion and polarization of the exciton-polariton modes in…

Plasmon and polariton modes are derived for an ideal semi-infinite (half-space) plasma and an ideal plasma slab by using a general, unifying procedure, based on equations of motion, Maxwell's equations and suitable boundary conditions.…

A simple model is constructed to describe dissociation of charge transfer excitons in bulk heterojunction solar cells, and its dependence on the physical parameters of the system. In bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaics (OPVs), exciton…

We experimentally investigate the non-resonant feeding of photons into the optical mode of a zero dimensional nanocavity by quantum dot multiexciton transitions. Power dependent photoluminescence measurements reveal a super-linear power…

Exciton dynamics, lifetimes and scattering are directly related to the exciton dispersion, or bandstructure. While electron and phonon bandstructures are well understood and can be easily calculated from first principles, the exciton…

We present a self-consistent Maxwell-Bloch theory to analytically study the interaction between a nanostructure consisting of a metal nanoparticle and a monolayer of transition metal dichalcogenide. For the combined system, we identify an…

The temperature dependence of the surface plasmon resonance in small metal spheres is calculated using an electron gas model within the Random Phase Approximation. The calculation is mainly devoted to the study of spheres with diameters up…
