Dynamics of Cu2O Rydberg Excitons -- Kerr Effect and Quantum Beats

Gerard Czajkowski

We investigate the nonlinear refraction and the nonlinear Kerr phase shift which are due to Rydberg excitons induced in Cu2O crystal by short-time pulses. We observe the phenomenon…

Optical to microwave frequency conversion with Rydberg excitons

David Ziemkiewicz, Sylwia Zielińska-Raczyńska

A novel, copper-based plasmonic system is presented to provide optical to microwave photon conversion. The process uses highly excited levels in Cu2O Rydberg excitons and takes adv…

Copper plasmonics with excitons

David Ziemkiewicz, Sylwia Zielińska-Raczyńska

We investigate the propagation of surface plasmons (SPPs) in a thin layer of copper surrounded by copper oxide CuO. It is shown that particularly strong excitons in CuO can…

Nonlinear optical properties and Kerr nonlinearity of Rydberg excitons in CuO quantum wells

David Ziemkiewicz, Gerard Czajkowski, Karol Karpiński +1

The quantum confiment of Rydberg excitons (REs) in quantum structures opens the way towards considering nonlinear interactions in such systems. We present a theoretical calculation…

Alloy broadening of the transition to the non-trivial topological phase of Pb_{1-x}Sn_{x}Te

A. Lusakowski, P. Boguslawski, T. Story

Transition between the topologically trivial and non-trivial phase of Pb_{1-x}Sn_{x}Te alloy is driven by the increasing content of Sn, or by the hydrostatic pressure for $x<0.…

Magnetic anisotropy energy in disordered Ge_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te

A. Łusakowski, P. Bogusławski, T. Story

We theoretically analyze the influence of chemical disorder on magnetic anisotropy in Ge_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te semiconductor layers known to exhibit carrier-induced ferromagnetism and ferr…
