Nonequilibrium transport of an electron-phonon-hole system in a semiconductor quantum well

Journal Article Zheng, T F ; Cai, W ; Lax, M - Phys. Rev. B: Condens. Matter; (United States)

The recently developed transport theory of two-dimensional carriers has been applied to an electron-lattice-hole system with an applied electric field in GaAs-Ga/sub 1-//sub x/Al/sub x/As heterojunction. The renormalized carrier-carrier coupled potentials and the renormalized carrier-phonon coupled potentials (including hole-lattice deformation potential) are derived in the ring diagram approximation. Force and energy balance equations of electrons and holes are obtained by a nonequilibrium density operator technique. These four balance equations are solved numerically in the steady state. The result shows that the electrons are heated in the applied electric field much more than the holes and the electron-hole interaction enhances themore »« less

Thermalization of an electron-phonon system in a nonequilibrium state characterized by fractal distribution of phonon excitations

Journal Article Koponen, I - Physical Review. E, Statistical Physics, Plasmas, Fluids, and Related Interdisciplinary Topics

The thermalization of an electron-phonon system in a nonequilibrium state characterized by a fractal distribution of phonon excitations is calculated in a novel way, which takes into account the unusual, inverse power-law type distribution of phonon energies. The calculations are done from the first principles, based on a nonequilibrium statistical operator combined with the recently proposed generalized, nonextensive thermostatistics. As a result the usual linear (Newtonian) energy transfer rate {dot Q}{proportional_to}{minus}(T{sub p}{minus}T{sub e}) is replaced by a nonlinear rate {dot Q}{proportional_to}{minus}(T{sub p}{sup q}{minus}T{sub e}{sup q}), where q{ge}1 is related to the fractality of the excitation energy distribution.

Dynamics of intrinsic optical bistability in two weakly interacting quantum systems

Journal Article Guillot-Noeel, O ; Goldner, Ph ; Gourier, D - Physical Review. A

The dynamics of the intrinsic optical bistability (IOB) in an elementary quantum system is investigated in the situation where this system is composed of two weakly interacting subsystems. Numerical calculations have been performed for two 'real' systems where IOB has been experimentally observed. The first situation corresponds to the electron-nuclear spin system of {beta}-Ga{sub 2}O{sub 3}, where the transition between electron spin states exhibit a strong bistability. The other situation corresponds to optical transitions in Yb{sup 3+} pairs in CsCdBr{sub 3}:Yb compound, where IOB has been experimentally observed. It is shown that, in addition to the classical hysteresis of themore »« less

Dynamical Cooper pairing in nonequilibrium electron-phonon systems

Journal Article Knap, Michael ; Babadi, Mehrtash ; Refael, Gil ; ... - Physical Review B

In this paper, we analyze Cooper pairing instabilities in strongly driven electron-phonon systems. The light-induced nonequilibrium state of phonons results in a simultaneous increase of the superconducting coupling constant and the electron scattering. We demonstrate that the competition between these effects leads to an enhanced superconducting transition temperature in a broad range of parameters. Finally, our results may explain the observed transient enhancement of superconductivity in several classes of materials upon irradiation with high intensity pulses of terahertz light, and may pave new ways for engineering high-temperature light-induced superconducting states.
