Synchronic scattering and geometric dephasing in microwave-induced resistance oscillations

We present a novel quantum transport model for microwave-induced resistance oscillations (MIRO) where we prove that the instantaneous scattering rate is directly modulated by the velocity of the driven coherent state. This interaction peaks exactly at $ωt = 2nπ$, where the wave packets sweep through the impurity landscape at maximum speed, breaking time-reversal symmetry to generate a net direct current. Additionally, we introduce a dephasing architecture to explain amplitude saturation: a non-linear geometric dephasing ($\exp(-A/R_c)$) triggered when the displacement amplitude $A$ of the oscillating coherent state, approaches the cyclotron radius $R_{c}$. This perfectly captures the linear-to-sublinear power crossover at high intensities, offering a fully coherent description of non-equilibrium transport.

Coherent states in microwave-induced resistance oscillations and zero resistance states

We investigate irradiated high-mobility two-dimensional electron systems (2DES) under low or moderated magnetic fields. These systems present microwave-induced magnetoresistance oscillations (MIRO) which, as we demonstrate, reveal the presence of coherent states of the quantum harmonic oscillator. We also show that the principle of minimum uncertainty of coherent states is at the heart of MIRO and zero resistance states (ZRS). Accordingly, we are able to explain, based on coherent states, important experimental evidence of these photo-oscillations. Such as their physical origin, their periodicity with the inverse of the magnetic field and their peculiar oscillations minima and maxima positions in regards of the magnetic field. Thus, remarkably enough, we come to the conclusion that 2DES, under low magnetic fields, become a system of quasiclassical states or coherent states and MIRO would be the smoking gun of the existence of these peculiar states is these systems.

Radiation-induced re-emission in a 2D electron system

Recent experiments on re-emission of radiation and magnetotransport in photoexcited two-dimensional electron systems are theoretically analyzed. These experiments have concluded that there exists a strong correlation between the re-emitted radiation and the radiation-driven current through the sample. We study these remarkable experimental results using the radiationdriven electron orbit model. According to it, two-dimensional electrons under a magnetic field move back and forth driven by radiation. Therefore, they behave as oscillating dipoles re-emitting part of the radiation previously absorbed. Then, this theory would explain in a simple way the experimental results.

Microwave-induced off-resonance giant magnetoresistance in ultraclean two-dimensional electron systems

We report on theoretical studies of a recently discovered strong microwave-induced magnetoresistance peak obtained in ultra-clean two-dimensional electron systems at low temperatures. The most striking feature of such a peak is that it shows up on the second harmonic of the cyclotron resonance and with an amplitude that can reach an order of magnitude larger than the microwave-induced resistance oscillations. We apply the microwave-driven electron orbits model in the ultra-clean scenario. Accordingly, we calculate the elastic scattering rate (charged impurity) which will define the unexpected resonance peak position. We also obtain the inelastic scattering rate (phonon damping), that will be responsible of the large peak amplitude. Calculated results are in good agreement with experiments. These results would be of special interest in nanophotonics; they could lead to the design of novel ultrasensitive microwave detectors.
