  Title Density of states in a superconductor carrying a supercurrent Type Journal Article
  Year 2003 Publication Phys. Rev. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. Lett.  
  Volume 90 Issue 12 Pages 127001 (1 to 4)  
  Keywords Usadel, superconducting nanowire  
  Abstract We have measured the tunneling density of states (DOS) in a superconductor carrying a supercurrent or exposed to an external magnetic field. The pair correlations are weakened by the supercurrent, leading to a modification of the DOS and to a reduction of the gap. As predicted by the theory of superconductivity in diffusive metals, we find that this effect is similar to that of an external magnetic field.

  Title Energy-gap dynamics of superconducting NbN thin films studied by time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy Type Journal Article
  Year 2011 Publication Phys. Rev. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. Lett.  
  Volume 107 Issue 17 Pages 4  
  Keywords NbN thin film, energy gap dynamics  
  Abstract Using time-domain terahertz spectroscopy we performed direct studies of the photoinduced suppression and recovery of the superconducting gap in a conventional BCS superconductor NbN. Both processes are found to be strongly temperature and excitation density dependent. The analysis of the data with the established phenomenological Rothwarf-Taylor model enabled us to determine the bare quasiparticle recombination rate, the Cooper pair-breaking rate and the electron-phonon coupling constant, λ=1.1±0.1, which is in excellent agreement with theoretical estimates.

  Title Transient increase of the energy gap of superconducting NbN thin films excited by resonant narrow-band terahertz pulses Type Journal Article
  Year 2013 Publication Phys. Rev. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. Lett.  
  Volume 110 Issue 26 Pages 267003 (1 to 5)  
  Keywords NbN thin films, energy gap  
  Abstract Observations of radiation-enhanced superconductivity have thus far been limited to a few type-I superconductors (Al, Sn) excited at frequencies between the inelastic scattering rate and the superconducting gap frequency 2Delta/h. Utilizing intense, narrow-band, picosecond, terahertz pulses, tuned to just below and above 2Delta/h of a BCS superconductor NbN, we demonstrate that the superconducting gap can be transiently increased also in a type-II dirty-limit superconductor. The effect is particularly pronounced at higher temperatures and is attributed to radiation induced nonthermal electron distribution persisting on a 100 ps time scale.

  Year 2009 Publication Phys. Rev. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. Lett.  
  Volume 102 Issue 10 Pages 4  
  Keywords  
  Abstract We describe a novel effect involving odd-order dispersion cancellation. We demonstrate that odd- and even-order dispersion cancellation may be obtained in different regions of a single quantum interferogram using frequency-anticorrelated entangled photons and a new type of quantum interferometer. This offers new opportunities for quantum communication and metrology in dispersive media.

  Title Effective wavelength scaling for optical antennas Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Phys. Rev. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. Lett.  
  Volume 98 Issue 26 Pages 266802(1-4)  
  Keywords optical antennas  
  Abstract In antenna theory, antenna parameters are directly related to the wavelength λ of incident radiation, but this scaling fails at optical frequencies where metals behave as strongly coupled plasmas. In this Letter we show that antenna designs can be transferred to the optical frequency regime by replacing λ by a linearly scaled effective wavelength λeff=n1+n2λ/λp, with λp being the plasma wavelength and n1, n2 being coefficients that depend on geometry and material properties. It is assumed that the antenna is made of linear segments with radii Râ‰<aa>λ. Optical antennas hold great promise for increasing the efficiency of photovoltaics, light-emitting devices, and optical sensors.

  Title Energy distribution function of quasiparticles in mesoscopic wires Type Journal Article
  Year 1997 Publication Phys. Rev. Lett. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 79 Issue 18 Pages 3490-3493  
  Keywords tunnel probe, metallic nanowire, diffusive wire, diffusive nanowire  
  Abstract We have measured with a tunnel probe the energy distribution function of Landau quasiparticles in metallic diffusive wires connected to two reservoir electrodes, with an applied bias voltage. The distribution function in the middle of a 1.5-μm-long wire resembles the half sum of the Fermi distributions of the reservoirs. The distribution functions in 5-μm-long wires are more rounded, due to interactions between quasiparticles during the longer diffusion time across the wire. From the scaling of the data with the bias voltage, we find that the scattering rate between two quasiparticles varies as <c9><203a>–2, where <c9><203a> is the energy transferred.

  Title Energy-loss rates for hot electrons and holes in GaAs quantum wells Type Journal Article
  Year 1985 Publication Phys. Rev. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. Lett.  
  Volume 54 Issue Pages 2045-2048  
  Keywords 2DEG, GaAs/AlGaAs, heat flow, electron-phonon, hole-phonon, carrier-phonon, interactions  
  Abstract We report the first direct determination of carrier-energy-loss rates in a semiconductor. These measurements provide fundamental insight into carrier-phonon interactions in semiconductors. Unexpectedly large differences are found in the energy-loss rates for electrons and holes in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells. This large difference results from an anomalously low electron-energy-loss rate, which we attribute to the presence of nonequilibrium optical phonons rather than the effects of reduced dimensionality or dynamic screening.
