The rate at which excited charge carriers relax to their equilibrium state affects many aspects of the performance of nanoscale devices, including switching speed, carrier mobility and luminescent efficiency. Better understanding of the…
The electron-electron relaxation in impure two-dimensional superconductors is studied. All channels of the electron-electron interaction classified in the Nambu representation are taken into account. It is shown that the recombination…
Radiative recombination of excitons dressed by the interactions with free charge carriers often occurs under simultaneous excitation of either electrons or holes to unbound states. This phenomenon, known as the electron recoil effect,…
We determined electronic relaxation times via pump-probe optical spectroscopy using sub-15 fs pulses for the normal state of two different cuprate superconductors.We show that the primary relaxation process is the electron-phonon…
A comprehensive study of the exciton relaxation processes in Cu2O has led to some surprises. We find that the ortho-para conversion rate becomes slower at high stress, and that the Auger nonradiative recombination rate increases with…
We calculate the electron-electron interaction induced energy-dependent inelastic carrier relaxation rate in doped semiconductor coupled double quantum well nanostructures within the two subband approximation at zero temperature. In…
In quantum dots (QDs) the Auger recombination is a non-radiative process, where the electron-hole recombination energy is transferred to an additional carrier. It has been studied mostly in colloidal QDs, where the Auger recombination time…
Open-system approaches are gaining traction in the simulation of charge transport in nanoscale and molecular electronic devices. In particular, "extended reservoir" simulations, where explicit reservoir degrees of freedom are present, allow…
In a recent letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 177406 (2013)], presenting a spectroscopic study of the electrons emitted from the GaN p-cap of a forward-biased InGaN/GaN light-emitting diode (LED), the authors observed at least two distinct…
We theoretically study the relaxation of electron orbital states of a double quantum dot system due to two-phonon processes. In particular, we calculate how the relaxation rates depend on the separation distance between the quantum dots,…
The Auger recombination in bulk semiconductors can depopulate the charge carriers in a non-radiative way, which, fortunately, only has detrimental impact on optoelectronic device performance under the condition of high carrier density…
The equilibration of electronic carriers in metals after excitation by an ultra-short laser pulse provides an important class of non-equilibrium phenomena in metals and allows measuring the effective electron-phonon coupling parameter.…
Carrier and spin recombination are investigated in p-type GaAs of acceptor concentration NA = 1.5 x 10^(17) cm^(-3) using time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy at 15 K. At low pho- tocarrier concentration, acceptors are mostly…
Auger scattering channels are of fundamental importance to describe and understand the non-equilibrium charge carrier dynamics in graphene. While impact excitation increases the number of carriers in the conduction band and has been…
In quantum dots (QDs) the Auger recombination is a non-radiative scattering process in which the optical transition energy of a charged exciton (trion) is transferred to an additional electron leaving the dot. Electron tunneling from a…
We estimate the spin relaxation rate due to spin-orbit coupling and acoustic phonon scattering in weakly-confined quantum dots with up to five interacting electrons. The Full Configuration Interaction approach is used to account for the…
We examine the effect of carrier localization due to random alloy fluctuations on the radiative and Auger recombination rates in InGaN quantum wells as a function of alloy composition, crystal orientation, carrier density, and temperature.…
Bi possesses intriguing properties due to its large spin-orbit coupling, e.g. as a constituent of topological insulators. While its electronic structure and the dynamics of electron-phonon coupling have been studied in the past,…
We study the relaxation of a non-equilibrium carrier distribution under the influence of the electron-electron interaction in the presence of disorder. Based on the Anderson model, our Hamiltonian is composed from a single particle part…
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…
