We study theoretically the magnetic field effect on a neutral, but polarizable exciton confined in quantum-ring structures. For excitons with a nonzero dipole moment, a novel magnetic interference effect occurs: The ground state of an…
We observe dressed states and quantum interference effects in a strongly driven three-level quantum dot ladder system. The effect of a strong coupling field on one dipole transition is measured by a weak probe field on the second dipole…
We study coherent phonon transport through organic, \pi-conjugated molecules. Using first principles calculations and Green's function methods, we find that the phonon transmission function in cross-conjugated molecules, like meta-connected…
Transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers and heterostructures are highly tunable material systems that provide excellent models for physical phenomena at the two-dimensional (2D) limit. While most studies to date have focused on electrons…
An approach is developed for the determination of the current flowing through a nanosize silicon-on-insulator (SOI) metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFET). The quantum mechanical features of the electron transport are…
In the strong light-matter coupling regime realized e.g. by integrating semiconductors into optical microcavities, polaritons as new hybrid light-matter quasi-particles are formed. The corresponding change in the dispersion relation has a…
In order to achieve quantum interference of free electrons inside a solid, we have modified the geometry of the solid so that de Broglie waves interfere destructively inside the solid. Quantum interference of de Broglie waves leads to a…
The influence of electron-electron scattering on the distribution function and transport characteristics of intrinsic monolayer graphene is investigated via an ensemble Monte Carlo simulation. Due to the linear dispersion relation in the…
When electron-hole pairs are excited in a semiconductor, it is a priori not clear if they form a fermionic plasma of unbound particles or a bosonic exciton gas. Usually, the exciton phase is associated with low temperatures. In atomically…
Monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have a remarkable excitonic landscape with deeply bound bright and dark exciton states. Their properties are strongly affected by lattice distortions that can be created in a controlled…
The extraordinary properties of two dimensional (2D) materials, such as the extremely high carrier mobility in graphene and the large direct band gaps in transition metal dichalcogenides MX2 (M = Mo or W, X = S, Se) monolayers, highlight…
We employ the quantum-jump approach to study single scatterings in single semiconductor quantum dots. Two prototypical situations are investigated. First, we analyze two-photon emissions from the cascade biexciton decay of a dot where the…
We investigate the effects of electron and acoustic-phonon confinement on the low-field electron mobility of thin square silicon nanowires (SiNWs) that are surrounded by SiO$_2$ and gated. We employ a self-consistent…
The properties of moir\'e excitons in twisted bilayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) vary significantly with the twist angle, ranging from quasi localized excitons with flat dispersions for small twist angles to delocalized…
The interference pattern of coherent electrons is effected by coupling to the quantized electromagnetic field. The amplitudes of the interference maxima are changed by a factor which depends upon a double line integral of the photon…
We provide a self-contained review of master equation approaches to modelling phonon effects in optically driven self-assembled quantum dots. Coupling of the (quasi) two-level excitonic system to phonons leads to dissipation and dephasing,…
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…
In this thesis I find an analytic expression for the conductance of a single electron transistor in the regime when temperature, level spacing, and charging energy of an island are all of the same order. I also study the correction to the…
Symmetric couplings among aggregates of $n$ chromophores increase the transfer rate of excitons by a factor $n^2$, a quantum mechanical phenomenon called "supertransfer." In this work we demonstrate how supertransfer effects induced by…
We look for manifestations of quantum interference effects in the Seebeck coefficient of a molecular junction, when the electronic conductance exhibits pronounced destructive interference features due to the presence of quasi-degenerate…
