Electron conductivity is an important material property that can provide a wealth of information about the underlying system. Especially, the response of the conductivity with respect to electromagnetic fields corresponds to various…
For electron transport in parallel-plane semiconducting structures, a model is developed that unifies ballistic and diffusive transport and thus generalizes the Drude model. The unified model is valid for arbitrary magnitude of the mean…
The theory of the nonlinear Hall effect has been established by I. Sodemann and L. Fu [Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 216806 (2015)] in a semiclassical framework: therein, the effect appears as a geometrical property of Bloch electrons, originating…
A generalization of the Drude model is studied. On the one hand, the free motion of the particles is allowed to be sub- or superdiffusive; on the other hand, the distribution of the time delay between collisions is allowed to have a long…
These are notes for lectures delivered at the NATO ASI on Dynamics in Leiden, The Netherlands, in July 1998. The quantum kinetic theory for noninteracting electrons in a disordered solid is introduced and discussed. We first use many-body…
The semi-classical Bloch-Boltzmann theory is at the heart of our understanding of conduction in solids, ranging from metals to semi-conductors. Physical systems that are beyond the range of applicability of this theory are thus of…
Consider a multichannel closed ring with disorder. In the semiclassical treatment its conductance is given by the Drude formula. Quantum mechanics challenge this result both in the limit of strong disorder (eigenstates are not…
I explore a theory of transport and optical properties of strange metallic carriers in strongly correlated systems that follows from assuming that the diffusion constant has reached its quantum limit $D=\hbar/m$, and that such quantum…
Study of various interesting features related to the nonlinear electrical response in composite materials through a model bond percolative system.
Quantum metric, a probe to spacetime of the Hilbert space, has been found measurable in the nonlinear electronic transport thus has attracted tremendous interest. However, without comparing with mechanisms tied to disorder, it is still…
We systematically investigate nonlinear Ohmic responses in second-harmonic generation and bilinear magnetoelectric effects within the Matsubara Green's function formalism. The optical nonlinear Ohmic conductivity is shown to consist of a…
We describe microscopic theory for the quantum transport through finite interacting systems connected to noninteracting leads. It can be applied to small systems such as quantum dots, quantum wires, atomic chain, molecule, and so forth. The…
The goal of this paper is to sketch a broader outline of the mathematical structures present in the Nonlinear Maxwell Theory in continuation of work presented in my previous articles. In particular, I display new types of both dynamic and…
Using the semiclassical Boltzmann transport theory, we analytically consider dc charge transport in gapless electron-hole (both chiral and non-chiral) systems in the presence of resistive scattering due to static disorder arising from…
Nonlinear effects are omnipresent in thin films of ion conducting materials showing up as a significant increase of the conductivity. For a disordered hopping model general physical mechanisms are identified giving rise to the occurrence of…
A theory for conduction electron scattering by inhomogeneous crystal lattice strains is developed, based on the differential geometric treatment of deformations in solids. The resulting fully covariant Schr\"odinger equation shows that the…
The optical conductivity is the basic defining property of materials characterizing the current response toward time-dependent electric fields. In this work, following the approach of Kubo's response theory, we study the general properties…
We consider the problem of electron transport across a quasi-one-dimensional disordered multiply-scattering medium, and study the statistical properties of the electron density inside the system. In the physical setup that we contemplate,…
The semi-classical Bloch-Boltzmann theory is at the heart of our understanding of conduction in solids, ranging from metals to semi-conductors. Physical systems that are beyond the range of applicability of this theory are thus of…
We propose a unified diffusion-mobility relation which quantifies both quantum and classical levels of understanding on electron dynamics in ordered and disordered materials. This attempt overcomes the inability of classical Einstein…
