Polaron Masses in CH3NH3PbX3 Perovskites Determined by Landau Level Spectroscopy in Low Magnetic Fields

We investigate the electron-phonon coupling in CH3NH3PbX3 lead halide perovskites through the observation of Landau levels and high-order excitons at weak magnetic fields, where the cyclotron energy is significantly smaller than the longitudinal optical phonon energy. The reduced masses of the carriers and the exciton binding energies obtained from these data are clearly influenced by polaron formation. We analyze the field-dependent polaronic and excitonic properties, and show that they can be quantitatively reproduced by the Frohlich large polaron model.

Spin relaxation in a zinc-blende (110) symmetric quantum well with delta-doping

The spin relaxation of a two-dimensional electron system (2DES) formed in a symmetric quantum well is studied theoretically when the quantum well is parallel to the (110) plane of the zinc-blende structure, the spin polarization is perpendicular to the well, and electrons occupy only the ground subband. The spin relaxation rate is calculated as a function of the distribution of donor impurities which are placed in the well layer. Considered processes of the spin relaxation are (1) intrasubband process by impurity-potential-induced spin-orbit interaction (SOI), which is the Elliott-Yafet mechanism in the 2DES, and (2) virtual intersubband processes consisting of a spin flip by (2a) well-potential-induced SOI or (2b) the Dresselhaus SOI, and a scattering from an impurity. It is shown that all of the above processes disappear, when all impurities are located on the center plane of the well. Even if impurities are distributed over three (110) atomic layers, the spin relaxation rate is two orders of magnitude lower than that for the uniform distribution over the well width of 7.5\ nm. In GaAs/AlGaAs type-I quantum wells the processes (1) and (2a) interfere constructively, being dominant over (2b) for the well width of $\sim$10\ nm, while in some type-II quantum wells they can interfere destructively.

Tunable electronic correlation effects in nanotube-light interactions

Electronic many-body correlation effects in one-dimensional (1D) systems such as carbon nanotubes have been predicted to modify strongly the nature of photoexcited states. Here we directly probe this effect using broadband elastic light scattering from individual suspended carbon nanotubes under electrostatic gating conditions. We observe significant shifts in optical transition energies, as well as line broadening, as the carrier density is increased. The results demonstrate the differing role of screening of many-body electronic interactions on the macroscopic and microscopic length scales, a feature inherent to quasi-1D systems. Our findings further demonstrate the possibility of electrical tuning of optical transitions and provide a basis for understanding of various optical phenomena in carbon nanotubes and other quasi-1D systems in the presence of charge carrier doping.

Extrinsic spin Nernst effect in two-dimensional electron systems

The spin accumulation due to the spin current induced by the perpendicular temperature gradient (the spin Nernst effect) is studied in a two-dimensional electron system (2DES) with spin-orbit interaction by employing the Boltzmann equation. The considered 2DES is confined within a symmetric quantum well with delta doping at the center of the well. A symmetry consideration leads to the spin-orbit interaction which is diagonal in the spin component perpendicular to the 2DES. As origins of the spin current, the skew scattering and the side jump are considered at each impurity on the center plane of the well. It is shown that, for repulsive impurity potentials, the spin-Nernst coefficient changes its sign at the impurity density where contributions from the skew scattering and the side jump cancel each other out. This is in contrast to the spin Hall effect in which the sign change of the coefficient occurs for attractive impurity potentials.

Thermohydrodynamics in Quantum Hall Systems

A theory of thermohydrodynamics in two-dimensional electron systems in quantizing magnetic fields is developed including a nonlinear transport regime. Spatio-temporal variations of the electron temperature and the chemical potential in the local equilibrium are described by the equations of conservation with the number and thermal-energy flux densities. A model of these flux densities due to hopping and drift processes is introduced for a random potential varying slowly compared to both the magnetic length and the phase coherence length. The flux measured in the standard transport experiment is derived and is used to define a transport component of the flux density. The equations of conservation can be written in terms of the transport component only. As an illustration, the theory is applied to the Ettingshausen effect, in which a one-dimensional spatial variation of the electron temperature is produced perpendicular to the current.

Spin-Charge Separation in Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectra

The implications of the angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) on the issue of spin-charge separation are discussed from the viewpoint of slave-particle RVB theories. It is pointed out that the non-local phase string is essential to reproduce the two-peak structure experimentally observed in SrCuO_2. The comparison between 1D and 2D cases is also made.
