We present a detailed theoretical study of the ultrafast quasiparticle relaxation dynamics observed in normal metals and heavy fermion materials with femtosecond time-resolved optical pump-probe spectroscopy. For normal metals, a nonthermal…
At high dissipation levels, vortex motion in a superconducting film has been observed to become unstable at a certain critical vortex velocity v*. At substrate temperatures substantially below Tc, the observed behavior can be accounted for…
We compute the transient dynamics of phonons in contact with high energy "hot" charge carriers in 12 polar and non-polar semiconductors, using a first-principles Boltzmann transport framework. For most materials, we find that the decay in…
We study the temperature relaxation dynamics of nodal-line semimetals after a sudden excitation in the presence of acoustic and optical phonon modes. We find that the nodal line constrains the electron momenta in scattering processes and,…
The rate of energy transfer between electrons and phonons is investigated by a first principles framework for electron temperatures up to $T_e=50000$ K while considering the lattice at ground state. Two typical but differently complex…
Ultrafast perturbations offer a unique tool to manipulate correlated systems due to their ability to promote transient behaviors with no equilibrium counterpart. A widely employed strategy is the excitation of coherent optical phonons, as…
We study theoretically the relaxation of hot quantum-Hall edge-channel electrons under the emission of both acoustic and optical phonons. Aiming to model recent experiments with single-electron sources, we describe simulations that provide…
The theory of the electron relaxation in metals excited by an ultrashort optical pump is developed on the basis of the solution of the linearized kinetic equation. The kinetic equation includes both the electron-electron and the…
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…
Oscillations of conductance observed in strong magnetic fields are a striking manifestation of the quantum dynamics of charge carriers in solids. The large charge carrier density in typical metals sets the scale of oscillations in both…
We propose a mechanism of energy relaxation for carriers confined in a non-polar quantum dot surrounded by an amorphous polar environment. The carrier transitions are due to their interaction with the oscillating electric field induced by…
In the past decade, the advent of time-resolved spectroscopic tools has provided a new ground to explore fundamental interactions in solids and to disentangle degrees of freedom whose coupling leads to broad structures in the frequency…
Electron and phonon transient temperatures are analyzed in the case of nondegenerate semiconductors. An analytical solution is obtained for rectangular laser pulse absorption. It is shown that thermal diffusion is the main energy relaxation…
A theory for the relaxation rates of a test electron and electron temperature in quantum wires due to deformation, piezoelectric acoustical and polar optical phonon scattering is presented. We represent intra- and inter-subband relaxation…
We develop a theory of far from the equilibrium transport in arrays of tunnel junctions. We find that if the rate of the electron-electron interactions exceeds the rate of the electron-phonon energy exchange, the energy relaxation ensuring…
This letter calculates the contribution of electron-phonon interaction to thermoelectric effects in graphene. One considers the case of free standing graphene taking into account interaction with intrinsic acoustic phonons. The temperatures…
We investigate the time-dependent reformation of the quasiparticle peak in a correlated metal near the Mott transition, after the system is quenched into a hot electron state and equilibrates with an environment which is colder than the…
I construct a simple model to demonstrate that when the many-electron quantum state of a material is near a quantum phase transition and the vibrational motion of a phonon explores the potential energy surface near the transition point,…
Matrix-operator difference-differential equations for dynamics of spectroscopic transitions in 1D multiqubit exchange coupled (para)magnetic and optical systems by strong dipole-photon and dipole-phonon coupling are derived within the…
The low-temperature kinetics of the strongly correlated electron liquid inhabiting a solid is analyzed. It is demonstrated that a softly damped branch of transverse zero sound emerges when several bands cross the Fermi surface…
