It has become clear that the anomalous properties of cuprate superconductors are intimately related to the formation of a pseudogap. Within the framework of the kinetic-energy-driven superconducting mechanism, the effect of the pseudogap on…

We discuss a technique and a material system that enable the controlled realization of quantum entanglement between spin-wave modes of electron ensembles in two spatially separated pieces of semiconductor material. The approach uses…

We report first-principles GW-Bethe Salpeter Equation and Quantum Monte Carlo calculations of the optical and electronic properties of molecular and crystalline rubrene (C$_{42}$H$_{28}$). Many-body effects dominate the optical spectrum and…

We describe the optical emission and the carrier dynamics of an ensemble of self-assembled GaAs quantum dots embedded in GaP(001). The QD formation is driven by the 3.6 % lattice mismatch between GaAs and GaP in Stranski-Krastanow mode…

We study cuprates within Dynamical Cluster Approximation and find the pseudogap displays an isotope effect of the same sign as observed experimentally. Notwithstanding the non-phononic origin of the pseudogap the interplay between…

We report on fluctuations in the electron system, Cooper pairs and quasiparticles, of a superconducting aluminium film. The superconductor is exposed to pair-breaking photons (1.54 THz), which are coupled through an antenna. The change in…

We investigate transport and Coulomb drag properties of semiconductor-based electron-hole bilayer systems. Our calculations are motivated by recent experiments in undoped electron-hole bilayer structures based on GaAs-AlGaAs gated double…

We report temperature-dependent switching between lower and upper polariton condensation in a GaAs/AlGaAs microcavity when both of these species have comparable populations in a mixture. Using angle-resolved photoluminescence, we observe…

We show that Compton scattering by electrons of the hot intergalactic gas in galaxy clusters should lead to peculiar distortions of the cosmic background X-ray and soft gamma-ray radiation - an increase in its brightness at E<60-100 keV and…

Active control of dark long-lived excitonic states in molecular aggregates using local electric fields is a pivotal challenge for advancing nanoscale optoelectronics and quantum device engineering. This experimental study investigates the…

Nanocrystals of AgInS$_2$ demonstrate giant Stokes shifts ~ 1 eV, the nature of which is still not clearly understood. We propose a theoretical model of this phenomenon bringing together several different mechanisms previously considered…

The pseudogap is one of the most pervasive phenomena of high temperature superconductors. It is attributed either to incoherent Cooper pairing setting in above the superconducting transition temperature Tc, or to a hidden order parameter…

In the hole-doped cuprates, the pseudogap refers to a suppression of the density of states at low energies, in the absence of superconducting long-range order. Numerous calculations of the Hubbard model show a pseudogap in the…

The choice of Gaussian basis functions for computing the ground-state properties of molecules, and clusters, employing wave-function-based electron-correlated approaches, is a well-studied subject. However, the same cannot be said when it…

The effect of the charge fluctuations on the electronic spectrum and the Raman spectrum of high temperature superconductors is examined within the slave boson approach. Instead of using the saddle point approximation for slave bosons, we…

The interaction of light and swift electrons has enabled phase-coherent manipulation and acceleration of electron wavepackets. Here we investigate this interaction in a new regime where low-energy electrons (~20-200 eV) interact with a…

We calculate the one-electron Green's function of the 2D attractive Hubbard model by coupling the electrons to pair fluctuations. The latter are approximated by homogeneous amplitude fluctuations and phase correlations corresponding to the…

A high quality amorphous silicon (a-Si) nanostructures has grown experimentally to study the origin of light emission and the quantum confinement effect in a-Si. The quantum confinement effect increases the band gap of material as the size…

Quantum interference between one- and two-photon absorption pathways allows coherent control of interband transitions in unbiased bulk semiconductors; carrier population, carrier spin polarization, photocurrent injection, and spin current…

Light absorption at the boundary of indirect-band-gap and direct-forbidden gap semiconductors is analyzed. It is found that the possibility of the electron momentum nonconservation at the interface leads to essential enhancement of…
