Two-dimensional Fourier transform spectroscopy of exciton-polaritons and their interactions

Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, Daniel Oberli, Marcia Portella Oberli, Stéphane Trebaol, Mitchell David Anderson, Naotomo Takemura, Verena Kohnle

We investigate polariton-polariton interactions in a semiconductor microcavity through two-dimensional Fourier transform (2DFT) spectroscopy. We observe, in addition to the lower-lower and the upper-upper polariton self-interactions, a lower-upper cross in ...

High-temperature superconductivity from fine-tuning of Fermi-surface singularities in iron oxypnictides

In the family of the iron-based superconductors, the REFeAsO-type compounds (with RE being a rare-earth metal) exhibit the highest bulk superconducting transition temperatures (T-c) up to 55 K and thus hold the key to the elusive pairing mechanism. Recentl ...

Influence of flexoelectric coupling on domain patterns in ferroelectrics

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Petr Yudin

Using Ginzburg-Landau theory and two-dimensional (2D) phase field simulations, we analyze the influence of flexoelectric coupling on the domain patterns in ferroelectrics. The phase field simulations predict that a high strength of the flexoelectric coupli ...

Empirical Monod-Beuneu relation of spin relaxation revisited for elemental metals

László Forró

Monod andBeuneu [P. Monod and F. Beuneu, Phys. Rev. B 19, 911 (1979)] established the validity of the ElliottYafet theory for elemental metals through correlating the experimental electron spin resonance linewidth with the so-called spin-orbit admixture co ...

Probing Absolute Spin Polarization at the Nanoscale

Klaus Kern, Markus Etzkorn, Matthias Alexander Eltschka, Maximilian Assig

Probing absolute values of spin polarization at the nanoscale offers insight into the fundamental mechanisms of spin-dependent transport. Employing the Zeeman splitting in superconducting tips (Meservey-Tedrow-Fulde effect), we introduce a novel spin-polar ...

Spin-correlated electronic state on the surface of a spin-orbit Mott system

Jan Hugo Dil, Chang Liu

We use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to show that the near-surface electronic structure of a bulk insulating iridate Sr3Ir2O7 lying near a metal-Mott insulator transition exhibits weak metallicity signified by finite electronic spectral weight ...

Spin-Orbital Entanglement and the Breakdown of Singlets and Triplets in Sr2RuO4 Revealed by Spin- and Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy

Jan Hugo Dil

Spin-orbit coupling has been conjectured to play a key role in the low-energy electronic structure of Sr2RuO4. By using circularly polarized light combined with spin-and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we directly measure the value of the effect ...

Two-Level Discretization Techniques For Ground State Computations Of Bose-Einstein Condensates

Patrick Henning

This work presents a new methodology for computing ground states of Bose-Einstein condensates based on finite element discretizations on two different scales of numerical resolution. In a preprocessing step, a low-dimensional (coarse) generalized finite el ...

A Vibronic Coupling Hamiltonian to Describe the Ultrafast Excited State Dynamics of a Cu(I)-Phenanthroline Complex

Ivano Tavernelli, Thomas James Penfold, Gloria Capano

We present a model Hamiltonian to study the nonadiabatic dynamics of photoexcited Cu(dmp)(2), (dmp = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline). The relevant normal modes, identified by the magnitude of the first order coupling constants, correspond closely to ...

Control and coherence of Loss-DiVincenzo qubits in Si/SiGe quantum dots

Pasquale Scarlino

Electron spins in Si/SiGe quantum dots are one of the most promising candidates for a quantum bit for their potential to scale up and their long dephasing time. We report for the first time the experimental realization of single electron spin rotations in ...
