Understanding Hot-Electron Generation and Plasmon Relaxation in Metal Nanocrystals: Quantum and Classical Mechanisms
Lucas V. Besteiro, Xiang-Tian Kong, Zhiming Wang +2
Generation of energetic (hot) electrons is an intrinsic property of any plasmonic nanostructure under illumination. Simultaneously, a striking advantage of metal nanocrystals over…
Detecting coupling of Majorana bound states with an Aharonov-Bohm interferometer
J. P. Ramos-Andrade, P. A. Orellana, S. E. Ulloa
We study the transport properties of an interferometer composed by a quantum dot (QD) coupled with two normal leads and two one-dimensional topological superconductor nanowires (TN…
What's so Hot about Electrons in Metal Nanoparticles?
Gregory V. Hartland, Lucas V. Besteiro, Paul Johns +1
Metal nanoparticles are excellent light absorbers. The absorption processes create highly excited electron-hole pairs and recently there has been interest in harnessing these hot c…
Spin-Seebeck effect and spin polarization in a multiple quantum dot molecule
J. P. Ramos-Andrade, F. J. Peña, A. González +2
In this work, we study the conductance and the thermoelectric properties of a quantum dot embedded between two metallic leads with a side-coupled triple quantum dot molecule under…
Simple and Complex Metafluids and Metastructures with Sharp Spectral Features in a Broad Extinction Spectrum: Particle-Particle Interactions and Testing the Limits of the Beer-Lambert Law
Lucas V. Besteiro, Kivanc Gungor, Hilmi Volkan Demir +1
Metallic nanocrystals (NCs) are useful instruments for light manipulation around the visible spectrum. As their plasmonic resonances depend heavily on the NC geometry, modern fabri…
