Anisotropic resonance energy transfer with strained phosphorene

J. Oliveira-Cony, C. Farina, P. P. Abrantes +1

We analyze the resonance energy transfer (RET) rate between quantum emitters (QEs) near a phosphorene/SiC interface under the effects of uniaxial strain. Using a low-energy tight-b…

Controlling electric and magnetic Purcell effects in phosphorene via strain engineering

P. P. Abrantes, W. J. M. Kort-Kamp, F. S. S. Rosa +3

We investigate the spontaneous emission lifetime of a quantum emitter near a substrate coated with phosphorene under the influence of uniaxial strain. We consider both electric dip…

Periodic strings: a mechanical analogy to photonic and phononic crystals

R. S. Pitombo, M. Vasconcellos, P. P. Abrantes +3

We study a periodic vibrating string composed of a finite sequence of string segments connected periodically, with each segment characterized by a constant linear mass density. The…

Entangled two-plasmon generation in carbon nanotubes and graphene coated wires

Y. Muniz, P. P. Abrantes, L. Martín Moreno +3

We investigate the two-plasmon spontaneous decay of a quantum emitter near single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and graphene-coated wires (GCWs). We demonstrate efficient, enhanc…

Controlling the atom-sphere interaction with an external electric field

P. P. Abrantes, V. Pessanha, Reinaldo de Melo e Souza +1

We investigate the system constituted by a polarizable atom near a nanosphere under the influence of an external electrostatic field, showing that the attractive dispersive force b…

Optical forces on an oscillating dipole near VO phase transition

Daniela Szilard, Patrícia P. Abrantes, Felipe A. Pinheiro +3

We investigate optical forces on oscillating dipoles close to a phase-change vanadium dioxide (VO) film, which exhibits a metal-insulator transition around K and low ther…

Probing topological phase transitions via quantum reflection in the graphene family materials

P. P. Abrantes, Tarik P. Cysne, D. Szilard +3

We theoretically investigate the quantum reflection of different atoms by two-dimensional (2D) materials of the graphene family (silicene, germanene, and stanene), subjected to an…

Tuning resonance energy transfer with magneto-optical properties of graphene

P. P. Abrantes, G. Bastos, D. Szilard +2

We investigate the resonance energy transfer (RET) rate between two quantum emitters near a suspended graphene sheet in vacuum under the influence of an external magnetic field. We…

Resonance energy transfer at percolation transition

P. P. Abrantes, D. Szilard, F. S. S. Rosa +1

We compute the resonance energy transfer (RET) in a system composed of two quantum emitters near a host dielectric matrix in which metallic inclusions are inserted until the medium…

Repulsive van der Waals interaction between a quantum particle and a conducting toroid

P. P. Abrantes, Yuri França, Reinaldo de Melo e Souza +2

We calculate the non-retarded dispersion force exerted on an electrically polarizable quantum particle by a perfectly conducting toroid, which is one of the most common objects exh…
