It is shown that at low temperatures and moderate electron dephasing the electron transmission function reveales a structure containing information about donor/acceptor sites effectively participating in the electron transfer (ET) processes…

The behavior of a particle in a solvent has been framed using stochastic dynamics since the early theory of Kramers. A particle in a chemical reaction reacts slower in a diluted solvent because of the lack of energy transfer via collisions.…

We describe a model of electron transfer reactions affected by local binding to the donor or acceptor sites of a particle in equilibrium with the solution. The statistics of fluctuations of the donor-acceptor energy gap caused by…

The cross-exchange electron transfer expression arising from Marcus theory is deduced using Onsager's non-equilibrium Thermodynamics formalism.

When a one-dimensional (1D) semiconductor nanostructure is immersed in a sluggish polar solvent, fluctuations of the medium may result in the appearance of localized electronic levels inside the band gap. An excess charge carrier can occupy…

We apply quantum rate theory to calculate the transition rates as hydrogen or deuterium atoms escape from a vacancy trap in iron into a neighbouring metastable site. We determine transition rates and corresponding activation energies over a…

On the basis of the transfer matrix technique an analytical method to investigate the stationary states, for an electron in one-dimensional periodic structures in an external electrical field, displaying the symmetry of the problem is…

We determine the impact of electron solvation on D$_2$O structures adsorbed on Cu(111) with low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy, two-photon photoemission, and ab initio theory. UV photons generating solvated electrons lead not…

We investigate theoretically the energy exchange between electrons of two co-propagating, out-of-equilibrium edge states with opposite spin polarization in the integer quantum Hall regime. A quantum dot tunnel-coupled to one of the edge…

A theory is developed to describe the coupled transport of energy and charge in networks of electron donor-acceptor sites which are seated in a thermally heterogeneous environment, where the transfer kinetics are dominated by Marcus-type…

The dissipative curve-crossing problem provides a paradigm for electron-transfer (ET) processes in condensed media. It establishes the simplest conceptual test bed to study the influence of the medium's dynamics on ET kinetics both on the…

Luttinger liquid theory describes one-dimensional electron systems in terms of non-interacting bosonic excitations. In this approximation thermal excitations are decoupled from the current flowing through a quantum wire, and the conductance…

We discuss the theory of cooling electrons in solid-state devices via ``evaporative emission.'' Our model is based on filtering electron subbands in a quantum-wire device. When incident electrons in a higher-energy subband scatter out of…

We utilize simulations of electron scattering by a chain of dynamical quantum spins, to analyze the interplay between the spin transfer effect and the magnetization dynamics. We show that the complex interactions between the spin-polarized…

Molecular structures with multiple donor, bridge, or acceptor units can display quantum interference effects that influence electron and energy transfer (ET and EnT) rates. Recent experiments found a 4- to 5-fold increase in ET rates for…

We compute the resonance energy transfer (RET) in a system composed of two quantum emitters near a host dielectric matrix in which metallic inclusions are inserted until the medium undergoes a dielectric-metal transition at percolation. We…

A novel formulation of the electron energy relaxation terms is presented here, which is applicable to plasma flows and discharges wherein the electron temperature could be higher or lower than the gas temperature. It is demonstrated that…

Electron transfer within and between molecules is crucial in chemistry, biochemistry, and energy science. This study describes a quantum simulation method that explores the influence of light polarization on the electron transfer between…

This article traces the development of fluctuation theory and its deep connection to irreversibility, from equilibrium to near-equilibrium, and finally to far-from-equilibrium systems. Classical fluctuation theorems, which capture the…

Resonant-exchange scattering plays a key role in many-body dynamics and transport phenomena (such as spin, charge, or excitation diffusion) at low and moderate temperatures. Recent investigations have shown that the locking of phase shifts…
