We investigate high-order harmonic generation (HHG) in graphene with a quantum master equation approach. The simulations reproduce the observed enhancement in HHG in graphene under elliptically polarized light [N. Yoshikawa et al, Science…
We introduce a semi-classical wavefunction (SCWF) model for strong-field physics and attosecond science. When applied to high harmonic generation (HHG), this formalism allows one to show that the natural time-domain separation of the…
We theoretically investigated the scheme allowing to avoid destructive space-charge instabilities and to obtain a strong gain at microwave and THz frequencies in semiconductor superlattice devices. Superlattice is subjected to a microwave…
Density functional calculations of electronic structures of materials is one of the most used techniques in theoretical solid state physics. These calculations retrieve single electron wavefunctions and their eigenenergies. The berry suite…
We study high order harmonics generation (HHG) in crystalline silicon and diamond subjected to near and mid-infrared laser pulses. We employ time-dependent density functional theory and solve the time-dependent Kohn-Sham equation in the…
Boltzmann relations are widely used in semiconductor physics to express the charge-carrier densities as a function of the Fermi level and temperature. However, these simple exponential relations only apply to sharp band edges of the…
The generation of high-order harmonics in a medium of chiral molecules driven by intense bi-elliptical laser fields can lead to strong chiroptical response in a broad range of harmonic numbers and ellipticities [D. Ayuso et al, J. Phys. B…
Reporting about the formalism with the Dirac equation we describe the dynamics of chiral oscillations for a fermionic particle non-minimally coupling with an external magnetic field. For massive particles, the chirality and helicity quantum…
We have derived a new set of semiclassical equations for electrons in magnetic Bloch bands. The velocity and energy of magnetic Bloch electrons are found to be modified by the Berry phase and magnetization. This semiclassical approach is…
We report a theoretical study of time-dependent transport in a ballistic graphene field effect transistor. We develop a model based on Floquet theory describing Dirac electron transmission through a harmonically driven potential barrier.…
The semiconductor Bloch equations (SBEs) are routinely used for simulations of strong-field laser-matter interactions in condensed matter. In systems without inversion or time-reversal symmetries, the Berry connections and transition dipole…
We consider the Hall conductivity of two-dimensional non-interacting Bloch electrons when the magnetic flux per unit cell is a rational number $p/q$ where $p$ and $q$ are mutually coprime. We present a counter-example for the naive…
The generation of high harmonics is a strongly nonlinear effect that allows to probe properties of the target and to study electron dynamics in matter. It has been investigated in many different kinds of targets, including molecular gases,…
A decimation method is applied to the tight binding model describing the two dimensional electron gas with next nearest neighbor interaction in the presence of an inverse golden mean magnetic flux. The critical phase with fractal spectrum…
Fermion-number fractionalization without breaking of time-reversal symmetry was recently demonstrated for a field theory in $(2+1)$-dimensional space and time that describes the couplings between massive Dirac fermions, a complex-valued…
Discovering Dirac fermions with novel properties has become an important front in condensed matter and materials sciences. Here, we report the observation of unusual Dirac fermion states in a strongly-correlated electron setting, which are…
Geometric analogs of Bloch oscillations studied so far have relied on Berry curvature. We show that a weakly inhomogeneous electric field adds a distinct quantum-metric term to semiclassical wavepacket dynamics, generating an oscillatory…
It is shown that electron backscattering can enhance high-harmonic generation in periodic systems with broken translational symmetry. Paradigmatically, we derive for a finite chain of atoms the harmonic cutoff due to electrons backscattered…
We derive the relativistic chiral transport equation for massless fermions and antifermions by performing a semiclassical Foldy-Wouthuysen diagonalization of the quantum Dirac Hamiltonian. The Berry connection naturally emerges in the…
We investigate the effect of dynamic electron correlation on high-harmonic generation in helium atoms using intense visible light (\lambda=390nm). Two complementary approaches are used which account for correlation in an approximate manner:…
