An Exactly Solvable Toy Model of Autocatalysis: Irreversible Relaxation after a Quantum Quench

Roberto Merlin

A fully resolvable quantum many-body Hamiltonian is introduced that mimics the behavior of the autocatalytic chemical reaction A+B <-> 2B involving two different molecular species,…

Photo-induced plasmon-phonon coupling in PbTe

M. P. Jiang, M. Trigo, S. Fahy +19

We report the observation of photo-induced plasmon-phonon coupled modes in the group IV-VI semiconductor PbTe using Fourier-transform inelastic X-ray scattering at the Linac Cohere…

Symmetry-resolved two-magnon excitations in a strong spin-orbit-coupled bilayer antiferromagnet

Siwen Li, Elizabeth Drueke, Zach Porter +7

We used a combination of polarized Raman spectroscopy and spin wave calculations to study magnetic excitations in the strong spin-orbit-coupled (SOC) bilayer perovskite antiferroma…

Echoes of a Squeezed Oscillator

Roberto Merlin, Andrea Bianchini

Pulses applied to an inhomogeneously broadened set of harmonic oscillators, previously prepared in squeezed states, can lead to a recovery of coherence, manifesting itself as echoe…

Near-field plates and the near zone of metasurfaces

Roberto Merlin

A brief, tutorial account is given of the differences between the near and far regions of the elec-tromagnetic field emphasizing the source-dependent behavior of the former and the…
