We propose a first-principles method of efficiently evaluating electron-transport properties of very long systems. Implementing the recursive Green's function method and the shifted conjugate gradient method in the transport simulator based…

We have studied the electronic structure and charge-carrier dynamics of individual single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and nanotube ropes using optical and electron-spectroscopic techniques. The electronic structure of semiconducting SWNTs…

Electron-electron interactions and excitons in carbon nanotubes are locally measured by combining Scanning tunneling spectroscopy and optical absorption in bundles of nanotubes. The largest gap deduced from measurements at the top of the…

Electrical control of individual spins and photons in solids is key for quantum technologies, but scaling down to small, static systems remains challenging. Here, we demonstrate nanoscale electrical tuning of neutral and charged excitons in…

We demonstrate for the first time that impact ionization (II) [the inverse of Auger recombination (AR)] occurs with very high efficiency in semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs). Interband optical excitation of PbSe NCs at low pump intensities,…

We calculate the exciton binding energy in single-walled carbon nanotubes with narrow band gaps, accounting for the quasi-relativistic dispersion of electrons and holes. Exact analytical solutions of the quantum relativistic two-body…

Resonant Raman spectroscopy of single carbon nanotubes suspended across trenches displays red shifts of up to 30 meV of the electronic transition energies as a function of the surrounding dielectric environment. We develop a simple scaling…

Nanomaterials exhibit unique optical phenomena, in particular excitonic quantum processes occurring at room temperature. The low dimensionality, however, imposes strict requirements for conventional optical excitation, and an approach for…

Carbon nanotubes are quantum sources whose emission can be tuned at telecommunication wavelengths by choosing the diameter appropriately. Most applications require the smallest possible linewidth. Therefore, the study of the underlying…
