Transiently changing shape of the photon number distribution in a quantum-dota??cavity system driven by chirped laser pulses
摘要： We have simulated the time evolution of the photon number distribution in a semiconductor quantum-dot–microcavity system driven by chirped laser pulses and compare with unchirped results. When phonon interactions with the dot are disregarded—thus corresponding to the limit of atomic cavity systems—chirped pulses generate photon number distributions that change their shape drastically in the course of time. Phonons have a strong and qualitative impact on the photon statistics. The asymmetry between phonon absorption and emission destroys the symmetry of the photon distributions obtained for positive and negative chirps. While for negative chirps transient distributions resembling thermal ones are observed, for positive chirps the photon number distribution still resembles its phonon-free counterpart but with overall smoother shapes. In sharp contrast, using unchirped pulses of the same pulse area and duration wave packets are found that move up and down the Jaynes-Cummings ladder with a bell shape that changes little in time. For shorter pulses and lower driving strength Rabi-like oscillations occur between low photon number states. For all considered excitation conditions transitions between sub- and super-Poissonian statistics are found at certain times. For resonant driving with low intensity the Mandel parameter oscillates and is mostly negative, which indicates a nonclassical state in the cavity ?eld. Finally, we show that it is possible that the Mandel parameter dynamically approaches zero and still the photon distribution exhibits two maxima and thus is far from being a Poissonian.

Infrared reflectance, transmittance, and emittance spectra of MgO from first principles
摘要： By using density functional theory calculations we determined the influence of anharmonic effects on the infrared reflectance, transmittance, and emittance of MgO. The goal is to determine the limit of validity of a perturbative (multiphonon) approach. MgO is chosen as a test material because of the availability of different kinds of radiative properties measured experimentally. Nonanalytic terms of the three-phonon scattering coefficients are explicitly calculated and do not provide measurable effects. The agreement is overall very good to such an extent that, already at room temperature, one can clearly identify regions in which four-phonon scattering processes are dominant with respect to the three-phonon ones. The influence of isotopic disorder at cryogenic temperatures is also settled.

Anisotropic Electron–Phonon Interactions in Angle-Resolved Raman Study of Strained Black Phosphorus
摘要： Few layer black phosphorus (BP) with in-plane puckered crystalline structure has attracted intense interest for strain engineering owing to both its significant anisotropy in mechanical and electrical properties as well its high intrinsic strain limit. Here we investigated the phonon response of few layer BP under uniaxial tensile strain (~7%) with in-situ polarized Raman spectroscopy. Together with the first-principles density functional theory (DFT) analysis, the anisotropic Poisson’s ratio in few-layer BP was verified as one of the primary factors that caused the large discrepancy in the trend of reported Raman frequency shift for strained BP, armchair (AC) direction in particular. By carefully including and excluding the anisotropic Poisson’s effect in the DFT emulations, we rebuilt both trends reported for Raman modes shift. Furthermore, the angle-resolved Raman spectroscopy was conducted in-situ under tensile strain for systematic investigation of the in-plane anisotropy of BP phonon response. The experimentally observed thickness and crystallographic orientation dependence is elaborated using DFT theory as strong correlation between the strain perturbated electronic band structure and the phonon vibration modes. This study provides insight, both experimentally and theoretically, for the complex electron-phonon interaction behavior in strained BP, which enables diverse possibilities for strain engineering of electrical and optical properties in BP and alike two-dimensional (2D) nano materials.
