Foam on troubled water: Capillary induced finite-time arrest of sloshing waves

François Gallaire, Benjamin Jérémy Dollet, Francesco Viola, Pierre-Thomas Paul Brun

Interfacial forces exceed gravitational forces on a scale small relative to the capillary length-two millimeters in the case of an air-water interface-and therefore dominate the physics of sub-millimetric systems. They are of paramount importance for vario ...

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 ...

Exciton-Polariton Bose-Einstein Condensates

Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud

Exciton-polaritons, mixed light-matter quasiparticles in semiconductors, have recently shown evidence for Bose-Einstein condensation. Some of the properties of condensates of exciton-polaritons are reviewed in this article. We first discuss the spontaneous ...

A nanoscale gigahertz source realized with Josephson scanning tunneling microscopy

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

Using the AC Josephson effect in the superconductor-vacuum-superconductor tunnel junction of a scanning tunneling microscope (STM), we demonstrate the generation of GHz radiation. With the macroscopic STM tip acting as a lambda/4-monopole antenna, we first ...

Magnetic field, frequency and temperature dependence of complex conductance of ultrathin La1.65Sr0.45CuO4/La2CuO4 films and the organic superconductors kappa-(BEDT-TTF)(2)Cu[N(CN)(2)]Br

Davor Pavuna, Guy Joseph Günter Dubuis, Ivan Bozovic, Xi He

We used atomic-layer molecular beam epitaxy (ALL-MBE) to synthesize bilayer films of a cuprate metal (La1.65Sr0.45CuO4, LSCO) and a cuprate insulator (La2CuO4, LCO), in which interface superconductivity occurs in a layer that is just one-half unit cell thi ...

Inhomogeneity of charge-density-wave order and quenched disorder in a high-T-c superconductor

Janusz Andrzej Karpinski, Davide Innocenti

It has recently been established that the high-transition-temperature (high-T-c) superconducting state coexists with short-range charge-density-wave order(1-11) and quenched disorder(12,13) arising from dopants and strain(14-17). This complex, multiscale p ...

Quantum treatment of the Bose-Einstein condensation in nonequilibrium systems

Hugo Pierre Alexandre Flayac

We develop a fully quantum-mechanical approach, based on stochastic trajectories, for an incoherently pumped system of interacting bosons in contact with a thermal reservoir. It enables a complete characterization of coherence in such a multimode system. W ...

High-performing nonlinear visualization of terahertz radiation on a silicon charge-coupled device

Christoph Peter Hauri, Mostafa Shalaby

Photoinduced electron transitions can lead to significant changes of the macroscopic electronic properties in semiconductors. This principle is responsible for the detection of light with charge-coupled devices. Their spectral sensitivity is limited by the ...

Challenges and Rewards of the Electrosynthesis of Macroscopic Aligned Carbon Nanotube Array/Conducting Polymer Hybrid Assemblies

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Andrea Pisoni, Péter Krisztián Matus, Klara Hernadi

Hybrid assemblies based on conducting polymers and carbon nanomaterials with organized nanoscale structure are excellent candidates for various application schemes ranging from thermal management to electrochemical energy conversion and storage. In the cas ...

Engineering the topological surface states in the (Sb2)m−Sb2Te3(m=0–3) superlattice serie

Marco Grioni, Arnaud Magrez, Oleg Yazyev, Helmuth Berger, Philippe Bugnon, Alberto Crepaldi, Gabriel Albert Autes, Simon Karl Moser, Jens Christian Johannsen

We investigate the evolution of both the occupied and unoccupied electronic structure in representative compounds of the infinitely adaptive superlattice series (Sb2)m−Sb2Te3 (m=0–3) by means of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and time-delayed tw ...
