Thermally activated charge fluctuations in GaAs double quantum dots [PDF]
In this thesis, laterally defined GaAs quantum dots and double quantum dots are investigated by means of real-time charge sensing. A quantum dot charge sensor, adjacent to the investigated double dot system, detects single electron tunneling with ...

Reciprocating Thermal Behavior in Multichannel Relaxation of Cobalt(II) Based Single Ion Magnets
A series of mononuclear Co(II) complexes showing slow magnetic relaxation is assessed from the point of view of relaxation mechanisms. In certain cases, the reciprocating thermal behavior is detected: On cooling, the slow relaxation time is prolonged ...

Electronic Structure and Phonon Thermodynamics of Iron Alloys [PDF]
Inelastic neutron scattering (INS) and nuclear-resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (NRIXS) were used to measure phonon spectra of FeV as a B2- ordered compound and as a bcc solid solution.

The critical role of ultra-low-energy vibrations in the relaxation dynamics of molecular qubits
Understanding phonon-induced relaxation in molecular qubits is a crucial step in realizing their application potential. Garlatti at al. use a combination of inelastic X-ray scattering and density functional theory to investigate the role of low-energy ...

Thermalization and relaxation mediated by phonon management in tin-lead perovskites
Understanding and control of ultrafast non-equilibrium processes in semiconductors is key to making use of the full photon energy before relaxation, leading to new ways to break efficiency limits for solar energy conversion.

Phonon Dispersion and Relaxation Time in Uranium Dioxide [PDF]
Phonon dispersion branches are used to obtain an effective relaxation time to calculate thermal conductivity of Uranium Dioxide (UO2). The method presented closely follows that of Deskins’ phonon-phonon interaction that uses a three-phonon process which ...

Temperature Dependence of Phonons in Elemental Cubic Metals Studied by Inelastic Scattering of Neutrons and X-Rays [PDF]
The vibrations of atoms in a crystal (phonons) make up the majority of its entropy (or heat capacity), and these vibrations are typically modeled by simple harmonic oscillators.
