Condensed-matter analogs of the Sauter--Schwinger effect
Malte F. Linder
The Sauter--Schwinger effect predicts the creation of electron--positron pairs from the vacuum due to a quasiconstant electric field . The pair-creation yield…
Derivation of Hawking radiation in dispersive dielectric media
Malte F. Linder, Ralf Schützhold, William G. Unruh
Motivated by recent experimental efforts, we study a black hole analog induced by the propagation of a strong laser pulse in a nonlinear dielectric medium. Based on the Hopfield mo…
Pulse shape dependence in the dynamically assisted Sauter-Schwinger effect
Malte F. Linder, Christian Schneider, Joachim Sicking +2
While the Sauter-Schwinger effect describes nonperturbative electron-positron pair creation from vacuum by a strong and slowly varying electric field via tunn…
Analog Sauter-Schwinger effect in semiconductors for spacetime-dependent fields
Malte F. Linder, Axel Lorke, Ralf Schützhold
The Sauter-Schwinger effect predicts the creation of electron-positron pairs out of the quantum vacuum via tunneling induced by a strong electric field. Unfortunately, as the requi…
