We apply the Wigner function formalism to derive drift-diffusion transport equations for spin-polarized electrons in a III-V semiconductor single quantum well. The electron spin dynamics is controlled by the spin-orbit ...

We present an adiabatic approach to the design of entangling quantum operations with two electron spins localized in separate InAs/GaAs quantum dots via the Coulomb interaction between optically excited localized states. ...

© The Royal Society of Chemistry 2017. We propose a physical mechanism for the photo-induced orientation alignment of azo-dyes incorporated in polymers at temperatures far below the glass transition temperature. Using ...

NMR spectra of 73Ge (nuclear spin I=9/2) in germanium single crystals with different isotopic compositions have been measured at the frequency of 17.4 MHz at room temperature. Due to the small concentration (∼0.1%) of the ...

The authors summarise semiclassical modelling methods, including drift-diffusion, kinetic transport equation and Monte Carlo simulation approaches, utilised in studies of spin dynamics and transport in semiconductor ...

Copyright © 2018 American Chemical Society. The strong coupling of a dense layer of molecular excitons with surface-plasmon modes in a metal gives rise to polaritons (hybrid light-matter states) called plexcitons. Surface ...

A Monte Carlo model was developed for the study of injection of spin-polarized electrons through a Schottky barrier from a ferromagnetic metal contact into a nonmagnetic low-dimensional semiconductor structure. Both ...

© 2016 The Royal Society of Chemistry.Azobenzene-functionalized polymer films are functional materials, where the (planar vs. homeotropic) orientation of azo-dyes can be used for storing data. In order to characterize the ...

© 2017 American Chemical Society. We consider a nonlinear mechanism of localized light inelastic scattering within nanopatterned plasmonic and Raman-active titanium nitride (TiN) thin films exposed to continuous-wave (cw) ...
