Heralded Spectroscopy: a new single-particle probe for nanocrystal photophysics

Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Ivan Michel Antolovic, Samuel Burri, Arin Can Ülkü

Semiconductor nanocrystals feature multiply-excited states that display intriguing physics and significantly impact nanocrystal-based technologies. Fluorescence supplies a natural probe to investigate these states. Still, direct observation of multiexciton ...

Hole-induced anomaly in the thermodynamic behavior of a one-dimensional Bose gas

Riccardo Rota

We reveal an intriguing anomaly in the temperature dependence of the specific heat of a one-dimensional Bose gas. The observed peak holds for arbitrary interaction and remembers a superfluid-to-normal phase transition in higher dimensions, but phase transi ...

Interaction of Confined Polaritons in Microcavity Structures

Morteza Navadeh Toupchi

A polariton is a quasiparticle formed from the coupling of a confined photon in a cavity to electronic excitation, like exciton in a semiconductor. This dissertation reports on series of experiments in confined polariton interaction by design, fabrication, ...

Direct measurement of key exciton properties: Energy, dynamics, and spatial distribution of the wave function

Michele Puppin, Martin Wolf

Excitons, Coulomb-bound electron-hole pairs, are the fundamental excitations governing the optoelectronic properties of semiconductors. Although optical signatures of excitons have been studied extensively, experimental access to the excitonic wave functio ...

Interacting Dirac materials

Gabriel Aeppli

We investigate the extent to which the class of Dirac materials in two-dimensions provides general statements about the behavior of both fermionic and bosonic Dirac quasiparticles in the interacting regime. For both quasiparticle types, we find common feat ...

Probing Alloy Formation Using Different Excitonic Species: The Particular Case of InGaN

Nicolas Grandjean, Raphaël Butté, Gordon Jens Callsen

Since the early 1960s, alloys are commonly grouped into two classes that feature either bound states in the band gap (I) or additional, nondiscrete band states (II). Consequently, one can observe either excitons bound to isoelectronic impurities or the typ ...

Multiple-q noncollinear magnetism in an itinerant hexagonal magnet

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Jonathan White

Multiple-q spin order, i.e., a spin texture characterized by a multiple number of coexisting magnetic modulation vectors q, has recently attracted attention as a source of nontrivial magnetic topology and associated emergent phenomena. One typical example ...

On the physics of multimode polaritons

Claudéric Ouellet-Plamondon

This thesis is devoted to the study of microcavity polariton systems, in which the strong coupling occurs between more than one exciton or photon modes i.e. multimode polaritons. The first part of this work states the theoretical background of light-matter ...

Mastering the statistical properties of microcavity polaritons

Albert Adiyatullin

Microcavity polaritons are hybrid quasiparticles emerging from the strong coupling between quantum well excitons and light in the resonator. Their unique half-light half-matter nature brings in specific properties like low effective mass, nonlinearity due ...

Coherent and incoherent aspects of polariton dynamics in semiconductor microcavities

Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, Daniel Oberli, Marcia Portella Oberli, Mitchell David Anderson, Naotomo Takemura, Morteza Navadeh Toupchi, Souvik Biswas

The interaction between coherent polaritons and incoherent excitons plays an important role in polariton physics. Using resonant pump-probe spectroscopy with selective excitation of single polariton branches, we investigate the different dephasing mechanis ...
