We analyze a single-level quantum system placed between metallic leads and strongly coupled to a localized vibrational mode, which models a singlemolecule junction or an STM setup. We consider a polaron model describing the interaction…
The influence of oscillating quadrupole fields on atomic energy levels is examined theoretically and general expressions for the quadrupole matrix elements are given. The results are relevant to any ion-based clock in which one of the clock…
Single atom manipulation within doped correlated electron systems would be highly beneficial to disentangle the influence of dopants, structural defects and crystallographic characteristics on their local electronic states. Unfortunately,…
Just as classical information systems require buffers and memory, the same is true for quantum information systems. The potential that optical quantum information processing holds for revolutionising computation and communication is…
Quantum optics with giant atoms provides a new approach for implementing optical memory devices at the atomic scale. Here, we theoretically study the relaxation dynamics of a single driven three-level atom interacting with a one-dimensional…
Adsorbed noble gas atoms donate (on the average) a fraction of an electronic charge to the substrate metal. The effect has been experimentally observed as an adsorptive change in the electronic work function. The connection between the…
We investigate the interplay between Coulomb driven orbital order and octahedral distortions in strongly correlated Mott insulators due to orbital dilution, i.e., doping by metal ions without an orbital degree of freedom. In particular, we…
The electronic transport properties of a point-contact system formed by a single Co atom adsorbed on Cu (100) and contacted by a copper tip is evaluated in the presence of intra-atomic Coulomb interactions and spin-orbit coupling. The…
The voltage dependence of nanoelectromechanical effects in a system where the quantized mechanical vibrations of a quantum dot are coupled to coherent tunneling of electrons through a single level in the dot is studied. It is found that…
Based on ab-initio calculations we identify possible scenarios for the Kondo effect due to Co ad-atoms on graphene. General symmetry arguments show that for magnetic atoms in high-symmetry positions, the Kondo effect in graphene is…
By tightly focussing a laser field onto a single cold ion trapped in front of a far-distant dielectric mirror, we could observe a quantum electrodynamic effect whereby the ion behaves as the optical mirror of a Fabry-P\'erot cavity. We show…
When an incident light beam is scattered off a sample of ultracold atoms trapped in an optical lattice, the statistical properties of the retro-reflected field contain information about the quantum state of the atoms, and permit for example…
In the density functional (DF) theory of Kohn and Sham, the kinetic energy of the ground state of a system of noninteracting electrons in a general external field is calculated using a set of orbitals. Orbital free methods attempt to…
We give a further step in the quantum mechanical description of engineered atomic spin structures by deriving a master equation of the Redfield type that governs the dynamics of the atomic spin density matrix. By generalizing this approach…
In this contribution we determine the exact solution for the ground-state wave function of a two-particle correlated model atom with harmonic interactions. From that wave function, the nonidempotent one-particle reduced density matrix is…
We consider electrons on a two-leg triangular ladder at half-filling and in an orbital magnetic field. In a two-band regime in the absence of the field, the electronic system remains conducting for weak interactions since there is no…
We report a bistable organic memory made of a single organic layer embedded between two electrodes, we compare to the organic/metal nanoparticle/organic tri-layers device [L.P. Ma, J. Liu, and Y. Yang, Appl. Phys. Lett. 80, 2997 (2002)]. We…
We show that a sharp dependence of the Hall coefficient $R$ on the magnetic field $B$ arises in two-dimensional electron systems with randomly located strong scatterers. The phenomenon is due to classical memory effects. We calculate…
We report an optical memory in a rare earth doped crystal with long storage times, up to 20 ms, together with an optical bandwidth of 1.5 MHz. This is obtained by transferring optical coherences to nuclear spin coherences, which were then…
Using simultaneous measurements of the attenuation and velocity of surface acoustic waves propagating along GaAs/Al$_{0.3}$Ga$_{0.7}$As heterostructures, complex ac conductance of the latters has been determined. In the magnetic fields…
