We study both theoretically and experimentally the nonlinear interaction between an intense surface acoustic wave and a two-dimensional electron plasma in semiconductor-piezocrystal hybrid structures. The experiments on hybrid systems…
Time-reversal symmetry suppresses electron backscattering in a quantum-spin-Hall edge, yielding quantized conductance at zero temperature. Understanding the dominant corrections in finite-temperature experiments remains an unsettled issue.…
It is shown that the variance of the linear dc conductance fluctuations in an open quantum dot under a high-frequency ac pumping depends significantly on the spectral content of the ac field. For a sufficiently strong ac field…
We study electron-acoustic phonon scattering and electron relaxation in quantum rings in the absence and in the presence of external magnetic fields. Electron-phonon interaction is accounted for both the deformation potential and…
The acoustogalvanic effect is proposed as a nonlinear mechanism to generate a direct electric current by passing acoustic waves in Dirac and Weyl semimetals. Unlike the standard acoustoelectric effect, which relies on the sound-induced…
This thesis is devoted to the study of quantum mechanical effects that arise in systems of reduced dimensionality. Specifically, we investigate coherence and correlation effects in quantum transport models. In the first part, we present a…
We consider the acousto-optic effect in a random medium. We derive the radiative transport equations that describe the propagation of multiply-scattered light in a medium whose dielectric permittivity is modulated by an acoustic wave. Using…
We investigate quantum effects in pattern-formation for a degenerate optical parametric oscillator with walk-off. This device has a convective regime in which macroscopic patterns are both initiated and sustained by quantum noise. Familiar…
We study the acoustoelectric effect in two-dimensional materials like transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers located on a non-piezoelectric substrate and exposed to the Rayleigh surface acoustic waves. We investigate the behavior of the…
We analyze the equilibrium frequency-dependent spin current noise and spin conductance through a quantum dot in the local moment regime. Spin current correlations behave markedly differently from charge correlations. Equilibrium spin…
We study theoretically the contribution of quantum effects to the exciton diffusion coefficient in atomically thin crystals. It is related to the weak localization caused by the interference of excitonic wavefunctions on the trajectories…
The electronic transport of a noninteracting quantum ring side-coupled to a quantum wire is studied via a single-band tunneling tight-binding Hamiltonian. We found that the system develops an oscillating band with antiresonances and…
Acoustoelectric Effect $AE$ in degenerate Carbon Nanotube ($CNT$) was theoretically studied for hypersound in the regime $ql >> 1$. The dependence of acoustoelectric current $j^{ac}$ on the acoustic wave number $\vec{q}$ and frequency…
In traditional approaches of obtaining quantized acoustoelectric current, a narrow channel is fabricated to form quantum dots, which hold a fixed number of electrons at a certain depth. We propose a natural way of forming quantum dots…
The frequency dependent conductance of a two-dimensional quantum wire is computed using a current conserving formalism. The correction to the dc-conductance due to a time-dependent potential is related to the local partial density of states…
We calculate the longitudinal-acoustic phonon scattering rate for a vertical double quantum dot system with weak lateral confinement and show that a strong modulation of the single-electron excited states lifetime can be induced by an…
We investigate the effects of noise-induced coherence on average current and current fluctuations in a simple model of quantum absorption refrigerator with degenerate energy levels. We describe and explain the differences and similarities…
The absorption coefficient for surface acoustic waves in a piezoelectric insulator in contact with a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure (with two-dimensional electron mobility $\mu= 1.3\times 10^5 cm^2/V\cdot s)$ at T=4.2K) via a small gap has…
Quantized single-electron transport driven by surface acoustic waves (SAW) through a pinched-off narrow constriction is studied theoretically. Long-range Coulomb interaction causes the tunneling coupling between the two-dimensional electron…
We analyze the equilibrium and non-equilibrium frequency-dependent spin current noise and spin conductance through a quantum dot in the local moment regime. Spin current correlations are shown to behave markedly differently from charge…
