An ab initio theory is devised for the x-ray photoabsorption cross section of atoms in the field of a moderately intense optical laser (800nm, 10^13 W/cm^2). The laser dresses the core-excited atomic states, which introduces a dependence of…
We study theoretically the optical response of the surface states of a topological insulator, especially the generation of helicity-dependent direct current by circularly polarized light. Interestingly, the dominant current, due to an…
The photo-induced desorption and oxidation of CO on Ru(0001) is simulated using ab initio molecular dynamics with electronic friction that accounts for the non-equilibrated excited electrons and phonons. Different (O,CO) coverages are…
In this paper, we report on the optical absorption in porous silicon. We model the absorption process assuming that porous silicon is a pseudo 1D material system having a distribution of band gaps. We show that in order to explain the…
The semiconductor Bloch equations for a two-band model including inter- and intraband excitation are used to study the nonlinear absorption of single and multiple light pulses by direct-gap semiconductors. For a consistent analysis the…
Over the last few decades, extensive previous studies of the nonlinear response of metal nanoparticles report a wide variation of nonlinear coefficients, thus, revealing a highly confused picture of the underlying physics. This naturally…
A detailed theoretical study of the optical absorption in self-assembled quantum dots is presented in this paper. A rigorous atomistic strain model as well as a sophisticated electronic band structure model are used to ensure accurate…
The chiral optical absorption by a single vortex in a p_x \pm i p_y-wave superconductor is studied theoretically. The p_x \pm i p_y-wave state was recently suggested as the symmetry of the order parameter of Sr_2 Ru O_4 superconductor. Due…
Emission spectroscopy is an invaluable tool for probing the atmospheres of brown dwarfs and exoplanets, but interpretations based on flux spectra alone often suffer from degeneracies among temperature structure, chemical composition, and…
Estimates of the linear extent of heavy-element absorption systems along the line-of-sight to a QSO often assume that the cloud is photoionized and that the temperature takes the equilibrium value where photo-heating balances line cooling.…
Formulas to describe the photoabsorption and the photon scattering by a plasma or a liquid metal are derived in a unified manner with each other. It is shown how the nuclear motion, the free-electron motion and the core-electron behaviour…
Electromagnetic waves propagating in a layered superconductor with arbitrary momentum with respect to the main crystallographic directions display an unavoidable mixing between longitudinal and transverse degrees of freedom. Here we show…
The recent realization of photonic topological insulators has brought the discovery of fundamentally new states of light and revolutionary applications such as non-reciprocal devices for photonic diodes and robust waveguides for light…
In this paper, we analyse the optical absorption in porous silicon . This is the first attempt to explicitly demonstrate that it is not possible to extract the band gap of such low dimensional nanostructures like porous silicon from a Tauc…
We present a model for the photoelectrons emitted from the surface of a Topological insulator induced by a polarized laser source. The model is based on the tunneling of the surface electrons into the vacuum in the presence of a photon…
Photonic crystal topological insulators host protected states at their edges. In the band structure these edge states appear as continuous bands crossing the photonic band gap. They allow light to propagate unidirectionally and without…
This paper presents the most complete framework to date for understanding the nonlinear optical trapping of highly absorbing nanoparticles within the dipole regime. Highly absorbing and plasmonic particles garner considerable interest due…
Adsorption on a boundary line confining a monolayer of particles self-assembling into clusters is studied by MC simulations. We focus on a system of particles interacting via competing interaction potential in which effectively short-range…
General expressions are obtained for the coefficient of light absorption by free carriers as well as the intensity of the spontaneous light emission by hot electrons in multivalley semiconductors. These expressions depend on the electron…
The behavior of a polyelectrolyte adsorbed on a charged surface of high-dielectric constant is studied by both Monte-Carlo simulation and analytical methods. It is found that in a low ionic strength medium, the transition is first-order…
