Understanding the vibrational and thermal properties of amorphous solids is one of the most discussed and long-standing issues in condensed matter physics. Recent works have made significant steps towards understanding harmonic vibrational…

Motivated by the recent experiment by Marguerite et al. [1] on imaging in graphene samples, we investigate theoretically the dissipation induced by resonant impurities in the quantum Hall regime. The impurity induced forward scattering of…

Symmetry breaking perturbations in an electronically conducting medium are known to produce Friedel oscillations (FOs) in various physical quantities of an otherwise pristine material. Here we show in a mathematically transparent fashion…

Interactions with electronic excitations can soften and/or broaden phonons. They are greatly amplified at wavevectors Q+- that connect parallel (nested) sheets of the Fermi surface. In such a case, called a Kohn anomaly, the phonon…

We develop a computational framework, based on the Boltzmann transport equation, with the ability to compute the thermal transport in nanostructured materials of any geometry using as the only input the bulk thermal conductivity…

We argue that an oscillatory motion of impurity-pinned solitons may occur in layered antiferromagnetic compounds. The characteristic frequencies of these modes, that may be detected by resonance or inelastic neutron scattering, are…

Anomalous thermal expansion behaviour of several open frame-work compounds has been extensively investigated using the techniques of inelastic neutron scattering and lattice dynamics. These compounds involve increasing level of structural…

We investigate the local density of states and Friedel oscillation in graphene around a well localized impurity in Born approximation. In our analytical calculations Green's function technique has been used taking into account both the…

We numerically study the relaxation dynamics of a single, heavy impurity atom interacting with a finite one- or two-dimensional, ultracold Bose-gas. While there is a clear separation of time scales between processes resulting from single-…

Silicon carbide is a very promising platform for quantum applications because of extraordinary spin and optical properties of point defects in this technologically-friendly material. These properties are strongly influenced by crystal…

Quantum confinement not only reshapes electronic states but also reorganizes the vibrational landscape of low-dimensional semiconductors. In halide perovskites, however, the role of confinement in governing symmetry effects on vibrational…

The vibrational density of states $D(\omega)$ of solids controls their thermal and transport properties. In crystals, the low-frequency modes are extended phonons distributed in frequency according to Debye's law, $D(\omega) \propto…

We calculate the current-voltage characteristic of metallic nanotubes at high bias voltage showing that a bottleneck exists for short nanotubes in contrast to large ones. We attribute this to a redistribution of lower-lying acoustic phonons…

We determine from first-principles the finite-temperature properties--linewidths, line shifts, and lifetimes--of the key vibrational modes that dominate inelastic losses in graphitic materials. In graphite, the phonon linewidth of the…

We identify graphene layer on a disordered substrate as a possible system where Anderson localization of phonons can be observed. Generally, observation of localization for scattering waves is not simple, because the Rayleigh scattering is…

We analyze two-component spatial optical vortex solitons supported by parametric wave mixing processes in a nonlinear bulk medium. We study two distinct cases of such localised waves, namely, parametric vortex solitons due to phase-matched…

Phonon resistance from dislocation scattering is often divided into short-range core interactions and long-range strain field interactions. Using electron energy-loss spectroscopy on a GaN dislocation, we report observations of vibrational…

Two component superlattice film of 2N layers is considered and dimensionally quantised spectrum of phonon-s is found. The problem of localization of phonon-s in the superlattice with random thicknesses of the layers is investigated. The…

We study a supersymmetric partition function of topological vortices in 3d N=4,3 gauge theories on R^2 x S^1, and use it to explore Seiberg-like dualities with Fayet-Iliopoulos deformations. We provide a detailed support of these dualities…

We show that the electron-phonon coupling in graphene, in contrast with the non-relativistic two-dimensional electron gas, leads to shifts in the phonon frequencies that are non-trivial functions of the electronic density. These shifts can…
