We develop analytical models of optical-field electron tunneling from the edge and surface of two-dimensional (2D) materials, including the effects of reduced dimensionality, non-parabolic energy dispersion, band anisotropy, quasi-time…
In this paper, we study the Schottky transport in narrow-gap semiconductor and few-layer graphene in which the energy dispersions are highly non-parabolic. We propose that the contrasting current-temperature scaling relation of $J\propto…
We theoretically consider the carrier density dependence of low-temperature electrical conductivity in high-quality and low-disorder two-dimensional (2D) `metallic' electronic systems such as 2D GaAs electron or hole quantum wells or gated…
We investigate universality, scaling, the beta-function and the topological charge in the positive plaquette model for SU(2) lattice gauge theory. Comparing physical quantities, like the critical temperature, the string tension, glueball…
We discover a universal scaling law for the quasiparticle Nernst coefficient in underdoped cuprates, whose magnitude decreases exponentially with increasing temperature as confirmed in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_y$. We attribute it to the basic…
Scaling laws express a systematic and universal simplicity among complex systems in nature. For example, such laws are of enormous significance in biology. Scaling relations are also important in the physical sciences. The seminal 1986…
Scaling laws and universality are often associated with systems exhibiting emergent phenomena possessing a characteristic energy scale. We report nonequilibrium transport measurements on two different types of single-molecule transistor…
In this work, we describe the charge transport in two-dimensional (2D) Schottky barrier field-effect transistors (SB-FETs) based on the carrier injection at the Schottky contacts. We first develop a numerical model for thermionic and…
In superconductors with relatively low superfluid density, such as cuprate high-$T_c$ superconductors, the phase fluctuations of the superconducting order parameter are remarkable, presumably playing a nonnegligible role in shaping many…
The universal behavior of the continuous superconducting (glass) phase transition is studied in a YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-\delta}$ thin film. A new analysis technique for extracting critical exponents is developed, using current-voltage…
Turbulence is a fundamental flow phenomenon, typically anisotropic at large scales and approximately isotropic at small scales. The classical Kolmogorov scaling laws (2/3, -5/3 and 4/5) have been well-established for turbulence without…
We present the theory of out-of-plane (or vertical) electron thermal-field emission from 2D semimetals. We show that the current-voltage-temperature characteristic is well-captured by a universal scaling relation applicable for broad…
Many frequency-response analyses of experimental data for homogeneous glasses and single-crystals involving mobile ions of a single type indicate that estimates of the stretched-exponential beta1 shape parameter of the Kohlrausch K1 fitting…
Dynamic hysteresis, the rate-dependent lagged response of materials to external fields, underpins applications from energy-efficient transformers to gas storage systems. A fundamental yet unresolved question is how the hysteresis loop area…
The reverse leakage current through a Schottky barrier transitions from a thermionic-emission dominated regime to a barrier-tunneling dominated regime as the surface electric field increases. In this study, we evaluate such transition…
We derive new bounds on a heat current flowing into a quantum $L$-particle system coupled with a Markovian environment. By assuming that a system Hamiltonian and a system-environment interaction Hamiltonian are extensive in $L$, we show…
The scaling of the conductivity at the superfluid-insulator quantum phase transition in two dimensions is studied by numerical simulations of the Bose-Hubbard model. In contrast to previous studies, we focus on properties of this model in…
There has been ongoing debate over the critical behavior of two-dimensional superconductors; in particular for high Tc superconductors. The conventional view is that a Kosterlitz-Thouless-Berezinskii transition occurs as long as finite size…
We derive a universal thermodynamic bound constraining directional transport in both discrete and continuous nonequilibrium systems. For continuous-time Markov jump processes and overdamped diffusions governed by Fokker--Planck equations,…
The collective behavior of a many-body system near a continuous phase transition is insensitive to the details of its microscopic physics[1]. Characteristic features near the phase transition are that the thermodynamic observables follow…
