Efficient design of optoelectronic devices based on electron intersubband transitions depends critically on the knowledge of the intersubband relaxation times which in turn, depends on electron scattering with LO and acoustic phonons. In this article the intersubband scattering time associated with electron–acoustic-phonon interaction has been discussed in terms of phonon mode quantization and phonon confinement with describing the acoustic phonon dispersion relation in detail by introducing the cut-off frequency for each mode. It has been shown that the quantization of acoustic phonon modes lead to an enhancement in electron–phonon scattering time in AlGaAs quantum well structures. Based on the presented model, a new tailoring method has presented to adjust the electron–phonon scattering time in intersubband-transition-based structures while keeping the electronic properties unaltered. Also, we illustrated that for a quantum well with subband energy separation of ∼30 meV, the intersubband scattering time with acoustic-phonon-assisted transitions could be tailored from ∼120 ps to increased value of ∼400 ps or reduced value of ∼45 ps by inserting a 1 nm-thickacoustically soft or hard layers, respectively, while keeping the same the initial energy separation. 相似文献

Temperature-dependent Raman investigations of titanium in the α and pressure-quenched ω-phase have been carried out. The results obtained suggest the possible coexistence of both phases at ambient pressure and low temperatures. Comparison of the low-temperature E2g phonon self-energies in both phases with simulations based on the calculated electronic structures for α- and ω-Ti implies significant contributions from non-adiabatic electron–phonon interactions. 相似文献

We investigate the electron–phonon interaction in a polar–polar single heterostructure through the use of the linear combination of hybrid phonon modes, considering the role of longitudinal optical, transverse optical and interface modes, using a continuum model that accounts for both mechanical and electrical continuity over a heterostructure interface. We discuss the use of other models for such systems, such as the bulk phonon (3DP) and dielectric continuum (DC) models, using previously developed sum-rules to explain the limitations on their validity. We find that our linear combination (LC) model gives an excellent agreement with scattering rates previously derived using the 3DP and DC models when the lattice dispersion is weak enough to be ignored, however, when there is a noticeable lattice dispersion, the LC model returns a different answer, suggesting that interface modes play a much greater part in the scattering characteristics of the system under certain conditions. We also discuss the remote phonon effect in polar/polar heterostructures. 相似文献

We have calculated the structural and electronic properties of SrPtAs in a hexagonal KZnAs-type of crystal structure using a generalized gradient approximation of the density functional theory and the ab initio planewave pseudopotential method. These results are used to further calculate the phonon dispersions curves and the phonon density of states using a linear response approach based on the density functional theory. Using the electronic and phonon results, the electron–phonon coupling is computed to be of the intermediate strength of 0.78. In large part, this is contributed by the phonon modes dominated by the vibrations of Pt and As atoms. The superconducting critical temperature is estimated to be 1.9 K, in good accord with its experimental value of 2.4 K. 相似文献

Electronic Raman scattering in YB6 and in its structural and electronic analog LaB6 has been studied in the temperature range of 10–730 K. The experimental spectra have been compared to those calculated on the basis of ab initio band structures with renormalization owing to the electron–phonon interaction. Good agreement between the calculation and experiment for LaB6 has been obtained throughout the entire temperature range. This allows the determination of the coupling constant λ ep = 0.25. To satisfactorily describe the spectra of electronic light scattering in YB6, it is necessary to introduce an additional electron relaxation channel. In this case, the estimate of the electron–phonon coupling constant λ ep is no more than 0.4; for this reason, a high superconducting transition temperature cannot be explained only by the phonon mechanism. 相似文献

We study the Ruderman–Kittle–Kasuya–Yosida (RKKY) interaction in doped armchair graphene nanoribbon. The effects of both external magnetic field and electron-Holstein phonon on RKKY interaction have been addressed. RKKY interaction as a function of distance between localized moments has been analyzed. It has been shown that a magnetic field along the z-axis mediates an anisotropic interaction which corresponds to a XXZ model interaction between two magnetic moments. In order to calculate the exchange interaction along arbitrary direction between two magnetic moments, we should obtain both transverse and longitudinal static spin susceptibilities of armchair graphene nanoribbon in the presence of electron-phonon coupling and magnetic field. The spin susceptibility components are calculated using the spin dependent Green’s function approach for Holstein model Hamiltonian. The effects of spin polarization on the dependence of exchange interaction on distance between moments are investigated via calculating correlation function of spin density operators. Our results show the influences of magnetic field on the spatial behavior of in-plane and longitudinal RKKY interactions are different in the presence of magnetic field. 相似文献

A square lattice of microcontacts with a period of 1 μm in a dense low-mobility two-dimensional electron gas is studied experimentally and numerically. At the variation of the gate voltage V g , the conductivity of the array varies by five orders of magnitude in the temperature range T from 1.4 to 77 K in good agreement with the formula σ(V g ) = (V g ?V g * (T))β with β = 4. The saturation of σ(T) at low temperatures is absent because of the electron–electron interaction. A random-lattice model with a phenomenological potential in microcontacts reproduces the dependence σ(T, V g ) and makes it possible to determine the fraction of microcontacts x(V g , T) with conductances higher than σ. It is found that the dependence x(V g ) is nonlinear and the critical exponent in the formula σ ∝ ? (x - 1/2) t in the range 1.3 < t(T, V g ) < β. 相似文献

A variational theory is proposed to study the electronic surface states in semi-infinite wurtzite nitride semiconductors under the hydrostatic pressure. The electronic surface state energy level is calculated, by taking the effects of the electron–Surface–Optical–phonon interaction, structural anisotropy and the hydrostatic pressure into account. The numerical computation has been performed for the electronic surface state energy levels, coupling constants and the average penetrating depths of the electronic surface state wave functions under the hydrostatic pressure for wurtzite GaN, AlN and InN, respectively. The results show that electron–Surface–Optical–phonon interaction lowers the electronic surface state energy levels. It is also found that the electronic surface state energy levels decrease with the hydrostatic pressure in wurtzite GaN and AlN. But for wurtzite InN, the case is contrary. It is shown that the hydrostatic pressure raised the influence of electron–phonon interaction on the electronic surface states obviously. The effect of electron–Surface–Optical–phonon interaction under the hydrostatic pressure on the electronic surface states cannot be neglected, in specially, for materials with strong electron–phonon coupling and wide band gap. 相似文献

The effects of squeezing-antisqueezing resulting from the motion and density fluctuation of the electrons on the properties of both electrons and phonons have been studied by using a new variational ansatz with correlated displacement and squeezing in strongly coupled electron–phonon systems. The effects results in (1) reduction of the ground state energy, and enhancement of stability of the systems, (2) increase of the binding energy of the polaron occurred and weakening of growing speed of polaron narrowing of electron band, (3) increase of the charge density wave order and (4) suppression of increased tendency of anomalous quantum fluctuation of the phonons in the systems. The antisqueezed effect plays an important role in determining the properties of the electrons and phonons in the strongly coupled electron–phonon systems. 相似文献

Electronic transport through a vibrating double quantum dot (DQD) in contact with noncollinear ferromagnetic (FM) leads is investigated. The state transition between the two dots of the DQD is excited by an AC microwave driving field. The corresponding currents and differential conductance are calculated in the Coulomb blockade regime by means of the Born-Markov master equation. It is shown that the interplay between electrons and phonons gives rise to phonon-assisted tunneling resonances and Franck-Condon blockade under certain conditions. In noncollinear magnetic configurations, spin-blockade effects are also observed, and the angle of polarization has some influence on the transport characteristics. 相似文献

We have investigated the influence of electron–phonon (e–p) interaction and hydrogenic donor impurity simultaneously on energy difference, binding energy, the linear, nonlinear and total refractive index changes and absorption coefficients of a hexagonal-shaped quantum wire. For this goal, we have used finite-element method (FEM), a compact density matrix approach and an iterative procedure. It is deduced that energy difference and binding energy decrease by changing the impurity position with and without e–p interaction. The dipole matrix elements have complex behaviours in the presence of impurity with and without e–p interaction. The refractive index changes and absorption coefficients increase and shift towards lower energies by enhancing a 1 with central impurity. In the presence of central impurity, the absorption coefficients and refractive index changes enhance and shift toward higher energies when e–p interaction is considered. 相似文献

A theoretical model is presented in this paper for degree of spin polarization in a light emitting diode (LED) whose epitaxial region contains quantum dots doped with magnetic impurity. The model is then used to investigate the effect of electron–phonon interaction on degree of spin polarization at different temperatures and magnetic fields. It is found that magnetic impurity increases the degree of spin polarization irrespective of temperature, while the electron–phonon interaction decreases the degree of spin polarization. Results are found to be in better agreement with experiments. 相似文献

Optical vibrations of the lattice and the electron-phonon interaction in polar ternary mixed crystals are studied in the framework of the continuum model of Born and Huang and the random-element-isodisplacement model. A normal-coordinate system to describe the optical vibration in ternary mixed crystals is correctly adopted to derive a new Fr?hlich-like Hamiltonian for the electron-phonon interaction including the unit-cell volume variation influence. The numerical results for the phonon modes, the electron-phonon coupling constants and the polaronic energies for several typical materials are obtained. It is verified that the nonlinearity of the electron-phonon coupling effects with the composition is essential and the unit-cell volume effects cannot be neglected for most ternary mixed crystals. 相似文献

The effects of elastic and inelastic electron–phonon interactions on current–voltage characteristic and tunnelling magnetoresistance (TMR) of Li@C59X (X = N, B) molecule that is coupled to two ferromagnetic electrodes was investigated using the non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) method. Our results by taking also into consideration spin degrees of freedom (excluding spin-mixing effects) indicate that the presence of inelastic electron–phonon interaction polaron formation increases current and shifts the TMR behaviour to higher values. Also, an increase of two orders of magnitude observed in current for Li@C59B compared to C60. 相似文献

We perform self-consistent quantum transport calculations in open quantum dots taking into account the effect of electron interaction. We demonstrate that, in the regime of the ultralow temperatures 2 pi kappa BT < or = delta (delta being the mean-level spacing), the electron interaction strongly smears the conductance oscillations and thus significantly affects their statistics. Our calculations are in good quantitative agreement with the observed ultralow temperature statistics of Huibers et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 1917 (1998)]. Our findings question a conventional interpretation of the ultralow temperature saturation of the coherence time in open dots which is based on the noninteracting theories, where the agreement with the experiment is achieved by introducing additional phenomenological channels of dephasing. 相似文献
