It is well known that conductivity of disordered metals is suppressed in the limit of low frequencies and temperatures by quantum corrections. Although predicted by theory to exist up to much higher energies, such corrections have so far…
The dynamics of interacting bosons in one dimension following the sudden switching on of a weak disordered potential is investigated. On time scales before quasiparticles scatter (prethermalized regime), the dephasing from random elastic…
We have used electro-reflectance measurements to study charge-density-wave (CDW) polarization dynamics at voltages near the CDW depinning onset (Von) in the quasi-one-dimensional conductor K0.3MoO3 ("blue bronze"). For low voltages, where…
To verify the hypothesis about the common origin of the low frequency 1/f noise and the quantum f noise recently measured in the Josephson charge qubits, we study temperature dependence of the 1/f noise and decay of coherent oscillations.…
It is shown that thermal fluctuations of the normal component induce dephasing -- reversible damping of the low energy collective modes of a confined Bose-Einstein condensate. The dephasing rate is calculated for the isotropic oscillator…
We study high temperature spin transport in a disordered Heisenberg chain in the ergodic regime when bulk dephasing is present. We find that while dephasing always renders the transport diffusive, there is nonetheless a remnant of the…
Effects of resonant acoustic phonon scattering on magnetoresistivity are examined in two-dimensional electron systems at low temperatures by using a balance-equation magnetotransport scheme direct controlled by the current. The…
We analyze dephasing by electron interactions in a small disordered quasi-one dimensional (1D) ring weakly coupled to leads, where we recently predicted a crossover for the dephasing time $\tPh(T)$ from diffusive or ergodic 1D ($\tPh^{-1}…
We present experimental data and a theoretical interpretation on the conductance near the metal-insulator transition in thin ferromagnetic Gd films of thickness b approximately 2-10 nm. A large phase relaxation rate caused by scattering of…
In this paper, we review the recent activity of our group on the study of disorder effects on systems displaying phase coherence. These studies have focused on both the electronic transport through mesoscopic metallic spin glasses, and cold…
Relaxation of soft modes (e.g. charge density in gated semiconductor heterostructures, spin density in the presence of magnetic field) slowed down by disorder may lead to giant enhancement of energy transfer (cooling power) between…
Understanding electron transport processes in molecular wires connected between contacts is a central focus in the field of molecular electronics. Especially, the dephasing effect causing tunneling-to-hopping transition has great importance…
Several puzzling regularities concerning the low temperature excitations of glasses are quantitatively explained by quantizing domain wall motions of the random first order glass transition theory. The density of excitations agrees with…
We investigate the effect of dephasing/decoherence on quantum transport through open chaotic ballistic conductors in the semiclassical limit of small Fermi wavelength to system size ratio, $\lambda_F/L << 1$. We use the trajectory-based…
We calculate the temperature dependence of the weak localization correction in a two dimensional system at arbitrary relation between temperature, $T$ and the elastic mean free time. We describe the crossover in the dephasing time…
Many-body localization is a fascinating theoretical concept describing the intricate interplay of quantum interference, i.e. localization, with many-body interaction induced dephasing. Numerous computational tests and also several…
Using a one-dimensional tight-binding Anderson model, we study a disordered nanowire in the presence of an external gate which can be used for depleting its carrier density (field effect transistor device configuration). In this first…
We study the effect of weak localization on the transition temperatures of superconductors using time-reversed scattered state pairs, and find that the weak localization effect weakens electron-phonon interactions. With solving the BCS…
We report on low temperature (2-30K) electron transport and magneto-transport measurements of a chemically synthesized InAs nanowire. Both the temperature, T, and transverse magnetic field dependences of the nanowire conductance are…
The localization length of a low energy tightly bound electron-hole pair (excitons) is calculated by exact diagonalization for small interacting disordered systems. The exciton localization length (which corresponds to the thermal…
