Two-dimensional charge carrier accumulation at oxide heterointerfaces presents a paradigm shift for oxide electronics. Like a capacitor, interfacial charge buildup couples to an electric field across the dielectric medium. To prevent the…
The propagation of a dissipative solitary wave across an interface is studied in a binary complex plasma. The experiments were performed under microgravity conditions in the PK-3 Plus Laboratory on board the International Space Station…
In the boundary layer of multicomponent fluid mixtures, the species-specific mass flux in the wall-normal direction is determined by the combination of turbulent-diffusiophoretic diffusion due to composition gradients, and diffusion due to…
We formulate a new theory for how caging constraints in glass-forming liquids at a surface or interface are modified and then spatially transferred, in a layer-by-layer bootstrapped manner, into the film interior in the context of the…
Coherent wave control exploits the interference among multiple waves impinging on a system to suppress or enhance outgoing signals based on their relative phase and amplitude. This process inherently requires non-Hermiticity, in order to…
In quantum theory particles are represented as wave packets. Shock wave analysis of quantum equations of motion shows that wave function representation in general and wave packet description in particular contains discontinuities due to a…
It is shown that semiconductor nanoscale resonators with extreme dielectric confinement accelerate the diffusion of electron-hole pairs excited by nonlinear absorption. These novel cavity designs may lead to optical switches with superior…
In this paper, we prove the existence of a bound state in a waveguide that consists of two semi-infinite periodic structures separated by an interface. The two periodic structures are perturbed from the same periodic medium with a Dirac…
A discrete-time two-user interference channel model is developed that captures non-linear phenomena that arise in optical fiber communication employing wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM). The effect of non-linearity is that an amplitude…
We briefly explain the consistency conditions imposed on the effective holographic theories, which are parameterized by two real exponents $(\gamma,\delta)$ that control the IR dynamics. The general scaling of DC resistivity with…
A single-walled carbon nanotube presents a seamless cylindrical graphene surface and is thus an ideal adsorption substrate for investigating the physics of atoms and molecules in two dimensions and approaching the one-dimensional limit.…
We investigate thermoelectric transport in monolayer graphene across a finite complex barrier within a Landauer scattering framework. Solving the Dirac-Weyl problem exactly, we show that the imaginary part of the barrier renders the…
We study the motion of phase interfaces in a diffusive lattice equation with bistable nonlinearity and derive a free boundary problem with hysteresis to describe the macroscopic evolution in the parabolic scaling limit. The first part of…
Heterogeneous interfaces are central to many energy-related applications in the nanoscale. From the first-principles electronic structure perspective, one of the outstanding problems is accurately and efficiently calculating how the…
We consider charge transport in nanopores where the dielectric constant inside the nanopore is much greater than in the surrounding material, so that the flux of the electric fields due to the charges is almost entirely confined to the…
This paper introduces a novel method to account for quantum disorder effects into the classical drift-diffusion model of semiconductor transport through the localization landscape theory. Quantum confinement and quantum tunneling in the…
Electrohydrodynamic instabilities of fluid-fluid interfaces can be exploited in various microfluidic applications in order to enhance mixing, replicate well-controlled patterns or generate drops of a particular size. In this work, we study…
The ground state energy and the extend of the wavefunction of a negatively charged donor (D-) located near a semiconductor-metal or a semiconductor-dielectric interface is obtained. We apply the effective mass approximation and use a…
We study the effect of a uniform shear flow on an interface separating the two broken-symmetry ordered phases of a two-dimensional system with nonconserved scalar order parameter. The interface, initially flat and perpendicular to the flow,…
In the framework of the grand-canonical ensemble of statistical mechanics, we give an exact diagrammatic representation of the density profiles in a classical multicomponent plasma near a dielectric wall. By a reorganization of Mayer…
