A simple electronic experiment using a field-effect-transistor–type microstructure is suggested. The thin superconductor layer forms the source-drain channel of a layered structure across which an AC current is applied. It is found necessary to measure the second harmonic of the source-gate...

We report the inclusion of temperature effects on the Mahan-Nozières-De Dominicis framework to study both many-body and temperature effects in photoluminescence spectra of doped semiconductors. The electronic part of the correlation function characterizes the photoluminescence spectra. We have...

We present investigations of the electronic and magnetic structure of the Rare Earth valence states. In particular, we have examined ultra thin films (≤ 10 ML) of the rare earth metals gadolinium and neodymium epitaxially grown on tungsten (110). Various experiments on dichroism in angular...

A model study of the characteristic signatures of carrier-correlation effects on the excitonic differential absorption spectra in semiconductors is presented. Using an effectively one-dimensional tight-binding system Coulomb-induced carrier-correlations up to third-order in the optical field are...
