In this thesis we study electron transport through magnetic nanocontacts and nanowires with ab initio quantum transport calculations. The aim is to gain a thorough understanding of the interplay between electrical conduction and magnetism…
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…
Coherent scattering of light by a single quantum emitter is a fundamental process at the heart of many proposed quantum technologies. Unlike atomic systems, solid-state emitters couple to their host lattice by phonons. Using a quantum dot…
The prospect of developing magnetic qubits is discussed. The first part of the article makes suggestions on how to achieve the coherent quantum superposition of spin states in small ferromagnetic clusters, weakly uncompensated…
We develop a first-principles many-body framework to describe the dynamics of photocarriers and phonons in semiconductors following ultrafast excitation. Our approach incorporates explicit ab initio light-matter coupling and…
A superconducting qubit device suitable for interacting with a flying electron has recently been proposed [H. Okamoto and Y. Nagatani, Appl. Phys. Lett. \textbf{104}, 062604 (2014)]. Either a clockwise or counter clockwise directed loop of…
Efficient and controlled charge transport in networks of semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes is the basis for their application in electronic devices, especially in field-effect transistors and thermoelectrics. The recent advances…
The theory of Raman scattering by the electron--phonon coupled system in metals and heavily doped semiconductors is developed taking into account the Coulomb screening and the electron--phonon deformation interaction. The Boltzmann equation…
We propose a technique for achieving large improvements in carrier mobilities in 2- and 1-dimensional semiconductor nanostructures by modifying their dielectric environments. We show that by coating the nanostructures with high-$\kappa$…
Measurement and fluctuations are closely related to each other in quantum mechanics. This fact is explicitly demonstrated in the case of a quantum non-demolition photodetector which is composed of a double quantum-wire electron…
Nanopores made with low dimensional semiconducting materials, such as carbon nanotubes and graphene slit pores, are used in supercapacitors. In theories and simulations of their operation, it is often assumed that such pores screen ion-ion…
Employing flux-grown single crystal WSe$_2$, we report charge carrier scattering behaviors measured in $h$-BN encapsulated monolayer field effect transistors. We perform quantum transport measurements across various hole densities and…
The symmetry of exchange interaction of charge carriers in semiconductor nanostructures (quantum wells and quantum dots) is analysed. It is shown that the exchange Hamiltonian of two particles belonging to the same energy band can be…

In III-V dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMSs) such as Ga$_{1-x}$Mn$_x$As, the impurity positions tend to be correlated, which can drastically affect the electronic transport properties of these materials. Within the memory function…

We model the emission spectrum of a quantum dot embedded in a (e.g. photonic crystal) nanocavity, using a semi-classical approach to describe the matter-field interaction. We start from the simple model of a quantum dot as a two-level…
