We demonstrate optical control of the LO phonon-plasmon coupled (LOPC) modes in GaAs by using a femtosecond pump-pulse pair. The relaxation time of the plasmon-like LOPC mode significantly depends on the separation time (\Delta t) of the…
We investigate in the framework of linear response theory the complete phonon dispersion, phonon induced electronic charge response, electron-phonon interaction and dielectric and infrared properties of the high-temperature superconductors…
Advances in light sources and time resolved spectroscopy have made it possible to excite specific atomic vibrations in solids and to observe the resulting changes in electronic properties but the mechanism by which phonon excitation causes…
The ability to induce, observe and control quantum coherent interactions in room temperature, electrically driven optoelectronic devices is of outmost significance for advancing quantum science and engineering towards practical…
The phase variation of the superconducting gap over the (normal) Fermi surface of the high-temperature superconductors remains a significant unresolved question. Is the phase of the gap constant, does it change sign, or is it perhaps…
Strong optical pulses at mid-infrared and terahertz frequencies have recently emerged as a powerful tool to manipulate and control the solid state and especially complex condensed matter systems with strongly correlated electrons. The…
Fully symmetric A1g phonons are expected to play a dominant role in electron scattering in strong topological insulators (TIs), thus limiting the ballistic transport of future electronic devices. Here, we report on femtosecond time-resolved…
Optical pump-probe spectroscopy is a powerful tool to directly probe the carrier dynamics in materials down to sub-femtosecond resolution. To perform such measurement, while keeping the pump induced perturbation to the sample as small as…
Pump-probe optical methods like transient grating spectroscopy (TGS) enable rapid, nondestructive thermoelastic property measurements. But, in phonon-dominated ceramics, they can underpredict bulk thermal diffusivity when long mean free…
Optical parametric oscillation (OPO) is distinguished by its wavelength access, that is, the ability to flexibly generate coherent light at wavelengths that are dramatically different from the pump laser, and in principle bounded solely by…
Raman spectroscopic studies of graphene have attracted much interest. The G-band Raman intensity of a single layer graphene on Si substrate with 300 nm SiO2 capping layer is surprisingly strong and is comparable to that of bulk graphite. To…
Gallium selenide (GaSe) is an efficient nonlinear crystal for electro-optic (EO) sampling in the multi-terahertz (THz) frequency range. However, the lattice resonance at several THz frequencies hampers broadband EO sampling, resulting in…
Substrate plays a crucial role in determining transport and low frequency noise behavior of graphene field effect devices. Typically, heavily dope Si/SiO$_2$ substrate is used to fabricate these devices for efficient gating.…
Neutron crystal-field spectroscopy experiments in the Y- and La-type high-temperature superconductors HoBa2Cu3O6.56, HoBa2Cu4O8, and La1.81Sr0.15Ho0.04CuO4 are reviewed. By this bulk-sensitive technique, information on the gap function is…
Accurate calibration of coherent optical receivers is essential for reliable performance assessment in coherent communications, precision and quantum sensing, and continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD), where the effective…
Anharmonic lattice vibrations play a key role in many physical phenomena. They govern the heat conductivity of solids, strongly affect the phonon spectra, play a prominent role in soft mode phase transitions, allow ultrafast engineering of…
We employ tip-enhanced infrared near-field microscopy to study the plasmonic properties of epitaxial quasi-free-standing monolayer graphene on silicon carbide. The near-field images reveal propagating graphene plasmons, as well as a strong…
A broadband detection method with coherent laser pulses exciting surface plasmons is investigated. The intensity and phase characteristics of the reflected light in Kretschmann configuration are calculated. It is shown that by mixing…
Scattering of phonons at boundaries of a crystal (grains, surfaces, or solid/solid interfaces) is characterized by the phonon wavelength, the angle of incidence, and the interface roughness, as historically evaluated using a specularity…
Plasmonic interferometry is a rapidly growing area of research with a huge potential for applications in terahertz frequency range. In this Letter, we explore a plasmonic interferometer based on graphene Field Effect Transistor connected to…
