We review some of the recent results in the context of the Coulomb interaction between dielectric surfaces which are randomly charged but remain net-neutral on the average. Such surfaces are found to interact in vacuum with attractive…
Recently a new propagating mode of coupled charge and spin oscillations was predicted in a two dimensional electron gas with a sufficiently strong Rashba interaction. We show that Coulomb interactions qualitatively modifies the spectrum and…
We have measured dispersions of spin-flip waves and spin-flip single-particle excitations of a spin polarized two-dimensional electron gas in a CdMnTe quantum well using resonant Raman scattering. We find the energy of the spin-flip wave to…
In an exact quantum-mechanical framework, we show that expectation values of the second-quantized electro-magnetic fields in the Coulomb gauge, and in the presence of classical sources, automatically lead to causal and retarded…
Using physical arguments, I derive the physically correct equations of motion for a classical charged particle from the Lorentz-Abraham-Dirac equations (LAD) which are well known to be physically incorrect. Since a charged particle can…
Recently there have been several proposals of materials predicted to be nodal-ring semimetals, where zero energy excitations are characterized by a nodal ring in the momentum space. This class of materials falls between the Dirac-like…
Resonant tunneling of electrons between two ferromagnets and a quantum dot in the presence of an externally applied magnetic field reveals a strong gate dependence in the linear and nonlinear bias regime. This gate dependence originates…
Using the Calogero model as an example, we show that the transport in interacting non-dissipative electronic systems is essentially non-linear. Non-linear effects are due to the curvature of the electronic spectrum near the Fermi energy. As…
We consider colliding wave packets consisting of hybrid mixtures of electromagnetic, gravitational and scalar waves. Irrespective of the scalar field, the electromagnetic wave still reflects from the gravitational wave. Some reflection…
We obtain a microscopic description of the interaction between electron spins in bulk semiconductors and in pairs of semiconductor quantum dots. Treating the k.p band mixing and the Coulomb interaction on the same footing, we obtain in the…
The study of quantum Coulomb systems at equilibrium is important for understanding properties of matter in many physical situations. Screening, recombination and van der Waals forces are basic phenomena which result from the interplay of…
Theoretical description of the field emission of electrons from nanoscale objects weakly coupled to the cathode is presented. It is shown that the field- emission current increases in a step-like fashion due to single-electron charging…
It is shown that response properties of a quantum harmonic oscillator are in essence those of a classical oscillator, and that, paradoxical as it may be, these classical properties underlie all quantum dynamical properties of the system.…
In light of a recent direct experimental confirmation of a Lorentz contraction of Coulomb field (an electric field of a point charge in a uniform motion), we revisit some common confusions related to it, to be mindful of in teaching the…
The Coulomb/Gauss law given in the Maxwell equations describes a spatial relation between the electric field component $E_\parallel({\bf r}, t)$ and its source $\rho({\bf r}, t)$ that is instantaneous, occurring at the same time $t$. This…
We compare the response of five different models of two interacting electrons in a quantum dot to an external short lived radial excitation that is strong enough to excite the system well beyond the linear response regime. The models…
We report measurements of the real and imaginary parts of the AC conductivity in the quantum limit, \hbar \omega > k_B T of insulating nominally uncompensated n-type silicon. The observed frequency dependence shows evidence for a crossover…
We report on a study of interaction effects on the polarization of a disordered two-dimensional electron system in a strong magnetic field. Treating the Coulomb interaction within the time-dependent Hartree-Fock approximation we find…
We describe a mechanism of spin transfer between individual quantum dots that does not require tunneling. Incident circularly-polarized photons create inter-band excitons with non-zero electron spin in the first quantum dot. When the…
We address the outstanding problem of electron pairing in the presence of strong Coulomb repulsion at small to moderate values of the Coulomb parameter, $r_s \lesssim 2$, and demonstrate that the pseudopotential framework is fundamentally…
