Fast Computation of Scattering by Isolated Defects in Periodic Dielectric Media
Kuljit S. Virk
Scattering by an isolated defect embedded in a dielectric medium of two dimensional periodicity is of interest in many sub-fields of electrodynamics. Present approaches to compute…
Microscopic theory to quantify the competing kinetic processes in photoexcited surface-coupled quantum dots
Kuljit S. Virk, Mark S. Hybertsen, David R. Reichman
We present a self-contained theoretical and computational framework for dynamics following photoexcitation in quantum dots near planar interfaces. A microscopic Hamiltonian paramet…
Effects of the interfacial polarization on tunneling in surface coupled quantum dots
Kuljit S. Virk, David R. Reichman, Mark S. Hybertsen
Polarization effects are included exactly in a model for a quantum dot in close proximity to a planar interface. Efficient incorporation of this potential into the Schrödinger equa…
Optical injection and terahertz detection of the macroscopic Berry curvature
Kuljit S. Virk, J. E. Sipe
We propose an experimental scheme to probe the Berry curvature of solids. Our method is sensitive to arbitrary regions of the Brillouin zone, and employs only basic optical and ter…
Conduction electrons and the decoherence of solid state qubits
Kuljit S. Virk, J. E. Sipe
We study the dynamics of impurity bound electrons interacting with a bath of conduction band electrons in a semiconductor. Only the exchange interaction is considered. We derive ma…
