Brown an d W-D. Zhang糖心原创 Physics Departmentelliott.brown@wright .edu \; weidong.zhang@wright.edu聽AbstractQuantum dots have long been a par adigm of nanoscience and are being used worldwide in many fields from cond ensed-matter physics to biomedicine.聽 Recently we have been studying a typ e of quantum dot made of crystalline ErAs embedded in GaAs and formed spon taneously by heavy doping concentration of Er (~4x1020 cm-3) during MBE gr owth.聽 The ErAs quantum dots have quasi-spherical diameters in the range 2 .0-2.5 nm\, a density >1x1018 cm-3 and a random distribution over a 1 um t hick epitaxial layer. 聽At this density the quantum dots are in close enoug h proximity that cooperative phenomena can be observed.聽 This presentation will cover two such phenomena: (1) cooperative optical spontaneous emissi on at room temperature when driven by l = 1550 nm\, femtosecond laser puls es\; and (2) cooperative electrical transport up to at least 77 K in the f orm of correlated tunneling (or hopping) between adjacent quantum dots.聽 T he first has led to the observation of (Dicke) 鈥渟uperradiance鈥 at THz freq uencies\, and the second to the discovery of a metal-insulator phase trans ition (thought to be Mott type)\, along with giant magnetoresistance in th e metallic state.*This research was supported primarily by the U.S. Army R esearch Office (Dr. Joe Qiu)\, and to a lesser extent by the Air Force Res earch Laboratory (Dr. Rob Ewing) DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20200129T122000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20200129T131500 LAST-MODIFIED:20200123T220303Z LOCATION:132 Oelman Hall SUMMARY:Physics seminar: 'Cooperative phenomena in dense quantum-dot arrays ' URL;TYPE=URI:/events/physics-seminar-cooperative-phen omena-dense-quantum-dot-arrays END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
