The realization of a semiconductor near-unity absorber in the infrared will provide new capabilities to transform applications in sensing, health, imaging, and quantum information science, especially where portability is required.…
The physics of mutual interaction of phonon quasiparticles with electronic spin degrees of freedom, leading to unusual transport phenomena of spin and heat, has been a subject of continuing interests for decades. Despite its pivotal role in…
We give detailed insight into photon counting OTDR (nu-OTDR) operation, ranging from Geiger mode operation of avalanche photodiodes (APD), analysis of different APD bias schemes, to the discussion of OTDR perspectives. Our results…
Observation of quantum phenomena in cryogenic, optically cooled mechanical resonators has been recently achieved by a few experiments based on cavity optomechanics. A well-established experimental platform is based on a thin film…
Gallium phosphide (GaP) is an indirect bandgap semiconductor used widely in solid-state lighting. Despite numerous intriguing optical properties---including large $\chi^{(2)}$ and $\chi^{(3)}$ coefficients, a high refractive index ($>3$),…
X-ray photodesorption yields of $^{15}$N$_2$ and $^{13}$CO are derived as a function of the incident photon energy near the N ($\sim$400 eV) and O K-edge ($\sim$500 eV) for pure $^{15}$N$_2$ ice and mixed $^{13}$CO:$^{15}$N$_2$ ices. The…
The ion-bombardment induced evolution of intermixing is studied by molecular dynamics simulations and by Auger electron spectroscopy depth profiling analysis (AESD) in Cu/Co multilayer. It has been shown that from AESD we can derive the…
Aluminum scandium nitride alloy (Al1-xScxN) is regarded as a promising material for high-performance acoustic devices used in wireless communication systems. Phonon scattering and heat conduction processes govern the energy dissipation in…
Electron recombination in highly ionizing stopping protons and deuterons is studied in the ArgoNeuT detector. The data are well modeled by either a Birks model or a modified form of the Box model. The dependence of recombination on the…
Optics and photonics has recently captured interest as a platform to accelerate linear matrix processing, that has been deemed as a bottleneck in traditional digital electronic architectures. In this paper, we propose an all-photonic…
The process of recombination of a quasi-free electron into a bound state of an initially bare nucleus with the simultaneous creation of a bound-electron--free-positron pair is investigated. This process is called the negative-continuum…
We present an ab initio computational approach for the calculation of resonant Raman intensities, including both excitonic and non-adiabatic effects. Our diagrammatic approach, which we apply to two prototype, semiconducting layered…
We examine the effects of resonant Auger destruction in modifying the intensities and flux distributions of K-alpha spectra from iron L-shell ions. Applications include X-ray irradiated stellar winds in X-ray binaries and accretion disk…
The presence of interface recombination in a complex multilayered thin-film solar structure causes a disparity between the internal open-circuit voltage (VOC,in), measured by photoluminescence, and the external open-circuit voltage (VOC,ex)…
A possibility to greatly enhance frequency-conversion efficiency of stimulated Raman scattering is shown by making use of extraordinary properties of three-wave mixing of ordinary and backward waves. Such processes are commonly attributed…
The semiconducting behaviour and optoelectronic response of gallium nitride is governed by point defect processes, which, despite many years of research, remain poorly understood. The key difficulty in the description of the dominant…
Auger-Meitner processes are electronic decay processes of energetically low-lying vacancies. In these processes, the vacancy is filled by an electron of an energetically higher lying orbital, while another electron is simultaneously emitted…
We study the dependence of the quantum yield of photoluminescence of a dense, periodic array of semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) on the level of doping and NC size. Electrons introduced to NCs via doping quench photoluminescence by the…
Ultrafast heat transport in nanoscale metal multilayers is of great interest in the context of optically-induced demagnetization, remagnetization and switching. We investigate the structural response and the energy flow in the ultrathin…
