Acoustic waves can serve as memory for optical information, however, acoustic phonons in the GHz regime decay on the nanosecond timescale. Usually this is dominated by intrinsic acoustic loss due to inelastic scattering of the acoustic…

We investigate the temperature dependence of photon coherence properties through two photon interference (TPI) measurements from a single QD under resonant excitation. We show that the loss of indistinguishability is only related to the…

Time-domain femtosecond laser spectroscopic measurements of the ultrafast lattice dynamics in 2H-MoTe2 bulk crystals were carried out to understand the carrier-phonon interactions that govern electronic transport properties. An unusually…

The evolution of the optical phonons in layered semiconductor alloys SnSe1-xSx is studied as a function of the composition by using polarized Raman spectroscopy with six different excitation wavelengths (784.8, 632.8, 532, 514.5, 488, and…

The process of the photon decay into the neutrino - antineutrino pair in a magnetic field is investigated. The amplitude and the probability are analysed in the limits of relatively small and strong fields. The probability is suppressed by…

We investigate the phonon-induced decoherence and dissipation in a donor-based charge quantum bit realized by the orbital states of an electron shared by two dopant ions which are implanted in a silicon host crystal. The dopant ions are…

Hybrid organic-inorganic semiconductors with strong electron-phonon interactions provide a programmable platform for developing a variety of electronic, optoelectronic, and quantum materials by controlling these interactions. However, in…

The nanocrystallite have the finite number of the oscillation modes. Their number increases proportionally to a cube of the characteristic size. Thus the oscillation spectrum of nanocrystal becomes discrete, and the separate modes of…

Nanomechanical waveguides offer a multitude of applications in quantum and classical technologies. Here, we design, fabricate, and characterize a compact silicon single-mode phononic waveguide actuated by a thin-film lithium niobate…

We report temperature evolution of coherently excited acoustic and optical phonon dynamics in superconducting iron pnictide single crystal Ca(Fe_0.944Co_0.056)_2As_2 across the spin density wave transition at T_SDW ~ 85 K and…

We study exciton radiative decay in a two-dimensional material, taking into account large thermal population in the non-radiative states, from which excitons are scattered into the radiative states by acoustic phonons. We find an analytical…

Effects of quantum phonon fluctuations on the Peierls dimerization in the one-dimensional molecular crystal model are reexamined by a functional integral approach. An equation for the dimerization order parameter is obtained within a…

The weak decay of the kaon to two pions is studied within the NJL Model. Using the standard effective weak Hamiltonian, both the decay amplitude arising from an intermediate state \sigma-meson and the direct decay amplitude are calculated.…

Localized excitons play a vital role in the optical response of monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides and can be exploited as single photon sources for quantum information technology. While the optical properties of such localized…

We have examined the effect of pump-probe photon energy on the amplitude of coherent optical phonons in a prototypical phase change material using a femtosecond time-resolved transmission technique. The photon energy was varied between 0.8…

We investigate the influence of the electron-phonon interaction on the decay dynamics of a quantum dot coupled to an optical microcavity. We show that the electron-phonon interaction has important consequences on the dynamics, especially…

The thermoelectric properties of 1.6 nm-thick Si square nanowires with [100] crystalline orientation are calculated over a wide temperature range from 0 K to 1000 K, taking into account atomistic electron-phonon interaction. In our model,…

Here we perform a series of time-resolved experiments where a 100 fs pump pulse is tuned between 528 nm and 555 nm, across the second indirect gap of intrinsic silicon at ~540 nm which involves electrons in a higher-lying conduction band…

The electron dephasing processes in two-dimensional homogeneous and inhomogeneous indium tin oxide thin films have been investigated in a wide temperature range 0.3--90 K. We found that the small-energy-transfer electron-electron ($e$-$e$)…

The noise from laser phase fluctuation sets a major technical obstacle to cool the nano-mechanical oscillators to the quantum region. We propose a cooling configuration based on the opto-mechanical coupling with two cavity modes to…
