Flexible control of photons and phonons in silicon nanophotonic waveguides is a key feature for emerging applications in communications, sensing and quantum technologies. Strong phonon leakage towards the silica under-cladding hampers…
A semi-analytical study of the acoustic radiation losses associated with various transverse vibration modes of a micromechanical (MEMS) annular resonator is presented. The quality factor, Q, of such resonators is of interest in many…
The excitonic occupancy state of a single, nanowire-based, heterostructure quantum dot is dynamically programmed by a surface acoustic wave. The quantum dot is formed by an interface or thickness fluctuation of a GaAs QW embedded in a…
We consider interface modes in block disordered subwavelength resonator chains in one dimension. Based on the capacitance operator formulation, which provides a first-order approximation of the spectral properties of dimer-type block…
High performance InGaAs gate-all-around (GAA) nanowire MOSFETs with channel length (Lch) down to 20nm have been fabricated by integrating a higher-k LaAlO3-based gate stack with an equivalent oxide thickness of 1.2nm. It is found that…
We develop a low-energy continuum model for phonons in twisted moir\'e bilayers, based on a configuration-space approach. In this approach, interatomic force constants are obtained from density functional theory (DFT) calculations of…
We investigate the noise properties of a zero-dimensional InAs quantum dot (QD) embedded in a GaAs-AlAs-GaAs tunneling structure. We observe an approximately linear dependence of the Fano factor and the current as function of bias voltage.…
Many calculations require a simple classical model for the interactions between sp^2-bonded carbon atoms, as in graphene or carbon nanotubes. Here we present a new valence force model to describe these interactions. The calculated phonon…
Optomechanical coupling between a mechanical oscillator and light trapped in a cavity increases when the coupling takes place in a reduced volume. Here we demonstrate a GaAs semiconductor optomechanical disk system where both optical and…
Recently, the EuS/InAs interface has attracted attention for the possibility of inducing magnetic exchange correlations in a strong spin-orbit semiconductor, which could be useful for topological quantum devices. We use density functional…
We discuss the intrinsic relations between thermodynamic phase transitions and quasinormal modes in regular AdS black holes, specifically in the Bardeen and Hayward AdS classes. To this end, we calculate the quasinormal modes of massless…
We show that a weak non-resonant tunneling between two quantum wires leads to splitting of the acoustic plasmon mode at finite wavevector. Two gaps open up in the dipersion of the acoustic plasmon mode when its frequency is close to the…
The influence of Ga incorporation into cubic In$_2$O$_3$ on the electronic and vibrational properties is discussed for (In$_{1-x}$,Ga$_x$)$_2$O$_3$ alloy films grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Using spectroscopic ellipsometry, a linear…
The AdS/CFT correspondence has developed over the last years into a very useful and powerful tool for studying strongly coupled field theories at finite temperature and density. Of particular interest is the regime of near equilibrium real…
Strong radial confinement in semiconductor nanowires leads to modified electronic and phononic energy spectra. We analyze the current response to the interplay between quantum confinement effects of the electron and phonon systems in a…
Superconducting quantum point contacts are known to possess two subgap states per each propagating mode. In this note we compute the low-temperature relaxation rate of the upper subgap state into the lower one with the emission of an…
When semi-infinite phononic crystals (PCs) are in contact, localized modes may exist at their boundary. The central question is generally to predict their existence and to determine their stability. With the rapid expansion of the field of…
We present a detailed analysis of the vibrational spectrum and heat capacity of suspended mesoscopic dielectric plates, for various thickness-to-side ratios at sub-Kelvin temperatures. The vibrational modes of the suspended cavity are…
Semiconductor quantum dots operated dynamically are the basis of many quantum technologies such as quantum sensors and computers. Hence, modelling their electrical properties at microwave frequencies becomes essential to simulate their…
