Photon drag current in monolayer graphene with degenerate electron gas is studied under interband excitation near the threshold of fundamental transitions. Two main mechanisms generate an emergence of electron current. Non-resonant drag…
We demonstrate that surface plasmon resonances excited by photon tunneling through an adjacent dielectric medium enhance photocurrent detected by a graphene photodetector. The device is created by overlaying a graphene sheet over an etched…
We observe photocurrents induced in single layer graphene samples by illumination of the graphene edges with circularly polarized terahertz radiation at normal incidence. The photocurrent flows along the sample edges and forms a vortex. Its…
We report a first principles investigation of photocurrent generation by graphene PN junctions. The junctions are formed by either chemically doping with nitrogen and boron atoms, or by controlling gate voltages. Non-equilibrium Green's…
We report on the generation of bulk photocurrents in materials driven by non-resonant bi-chromatic fields that are circularly polarized and co-rotating. The nonlinear photocurrents have a fully controllable directionality and amplitude…
Light induced current in two-dimensional (2D) layered materials emerges from mechanisms such as photothermoelectric effect, photovoltaic effect or nonlocal hot carrier transport. Semiconducting layered transition metal dichalcogenides have…
Tungsten diselenide (WSe2), a semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC), shows great potential as active material in optoelectronic devices due to its ambipolarity and direct bandgap in its single-layer form. Recently, different…
The Nernst effect, a transverse thermoelectric phenomenon, has attracted significant attention for its potential in energy conversion, thermoelectrics, and spintronics. However, achieving high performance and versatility at low temperatures…
The anomalous Nernst effect is the thermoelectric counterpart of the anomalous Hall effect, which can emerge in magnetic materials or topological materials without magnetic field. Such effect is critical to both fundamental topological…
Although the absorption of light in a bulk homogeneous semiconductor produces photocarriers with non-zero momentum, it generally does not produce a current in the absence of an applied electric field because equal amounts of carriers with…
We report the study of the helicity driven photocurrents in graphene excited by mid-infrared light of a CO$_2$-laser. Illuminating an unbiased monolayer sheet of graphene with circularly polarized radiation generates -- under oblique…
We observe that the illumination of unbiased graphene in the quantum Hall regime with polarized terahertz laser radiation results in a direct edge current. This photocurrent is caused by an imbalance of persistent edge currents, which are…
Scanning photocurrent maps of gapless materials, such as graphene, often exhibit complex patterns of hot spots positioned far from current-collecting contacts. We develop a general framework that helps to explain the unusual features of the…
We study the optical response of a suspended graphene field-effect transistor in magnetic fields of up to 9 T (quantum Hall regime). With an illumination power of only 3 {\mu}W, we measure a photocurrent of up to 400 nA, corresponding to a…
We observe enhanced second-harmonic generation in monolayer graphene in the presence of an ultra-strong terahertz field pulse with a peak amplitude of 250 kV/cm. This is a strongly nonperturbative regime of light-matter interaction in which…
The cooling of hot electrons in graphene is the critical process underlying the operation of exciting new graphene-based optoelectronic and plasmonic devices, but the nature of this cooling is controversial. We extract the hot electron…
We present a joint theory-experiment study on ultrafast photoluminescence from photoexcited graphene. Based on a microscopic theory, we reveal two distinct mechanisms behind the occurring photoluminescence: Besides the well-known incoherent…
Photogalvanic effect (PGE) occurring in noncentrosymmetric materials enables the generation of the open-circuit voltage that is much larger than the bandgap, making it rather attractive in solar cells. However, the magnitude of the PGE…
The transverse thermoelectric effect refers to the conversion of a temperature gradient into a transverse charge current, or vice versa, which appears in a conductor under a magnetic field or in a magnetic material with spontaneous…
In the last decade, advancements in attosecond spectroscopy have allowed us to study electron motion dynamics in condensed matter. The access to these electron dynamics and, consequently, its control by an ultrafast light field paves the…
