1 Wu, Yong-ShiAlgebraic solution for a two-level atom in radiation fields and the Freeman resonancesUsing techniques of complex analysis in an algebraic approach, we solve the wave equation for a two-level atom interacting with a monochromatic light field exactly. A closed-form expression for the quasienergies is obtained, which shows that the Bloch-Siegert shift is always finite, regardless of ...Bloch-Siegert shift; Freeman resonances; Quasienergies2006-02
2 Wu, Yong-ShiHigh-precision quasienergies for a driven two-level atom at the two-photon preresonanceA computation with unprecedented precision is presented for quasienergies of a two-level atom in a monochromatic radiation on the basis of a recently obtained exact expression [D.-S. Guo et al., Phys. Rev. A 73,023419 (2006)]. We start with the proof of an expression theorem. With this theorem the ...Quasienergies; Preresonance; Floquet periodicity2008-02
3 Vardeny, Zeev ValentinePhotoinduced quantum interference antiresonances in ∏-conjugated polymersWe observed photoinduced quantum interference antiresonances between several discrete infraredactive vibrations and the lower-polaron continuous absorption band in a series of p-conjugated polymer films having superior planar orders, where the polaron transition energy is relatively small.

4 Wu, Yong-ShiRenormalization of the statistics parameter in three-dimensional electrodynamicsWe argue that the p function for the statistics parameter in (2+1)-dimensional electrodynamics is zero to all orders in perturbation theory beyond one loop. We show that there can be finite radiative corrections from massless charged scalar fields.Renormalization1989-02
5 Mattis, Daniel C.Phase transition of model interacting chainsThe partition function of n interacting chains having a phase transition at Tc(n) is reduced, by the transfer-matrix formalism, to the determination of an w-body bound state in one dimension. Subject to mild restrictions on the potentials, this w-body problem can be analyzed in terms of a two-body p...Phase transition; Interacting chains1981-12
6 Vardeny, Zeev Valentine; Ehrenfreund, Eitan A.Apparent phonon side-band modes in π-conjugated systems: polymers, oligomers and crystalsThe emission spectra of many π-conjugated polymers and oligomers contain side-band replicas with apparent frequencies that do not match the Raman active mode frequencies. Using a time dependent model we show that in such many mode systems, the increased damping of the time dependent transition dipo...2005-11
7 Mishchenko, Eugene; Raikh, Mikhail E.Tunneling between two-dimensional electron layers with correlated disorder: anomalous sensitivity to spin-orbit couplingTunneling between two-dimensional electron layers with mutually correlated disorder potentials is studied theoretically. Due to this correlation, the diffusive eigenstates in different layers are almost orthogonal to each other. As a result, a peak in the tunnel I-V characteristics shifts towards s...Spin-orbit coupling2006-11
8 Wu, Yong-ShiChiral bosonization and local Lorentz-invariant actions for chiral bosonsWe formulate a geometrical theory of self-dual scalar fields in two dimensions with a local Lorentz-invariant action. Path-integral quantization is used to derive chiral bosonization by demonstrating equivalence of correlation functions of currents and energy-momentum tensors in our theory with thos...Bosonization; String theory; Weyl fermions1988-06
9 DeTar, CarletonStatic hybrid quarkonium potential with improved staggered quarksWe are studying the effects of light dynamical quarks on the excitation energies of a flux tube between a static quark and antiquark.

We have measured these potentials on closely matched...Quarkonium; Staggered quarks; Flux tube2003-05
10 Mishchenko, EugeneSpin Hall edge spin polarization in a ballistic 2D electron systemUniversal properties of the spin Hall effect in ballistic 2D electron systems are addressed. The net spin polarization across the edge of the conductor is second order, ~λ2, in spin-orbit coupling constant independent of the form of the boundary potential, with the contributions of normal and evan...Spin- Hall effect2007-09
11 Mattis, Daniel C.Exact solution of a many-fermion system and its associated boson fieldLuttinger's exactly soluble model of a one-dimensional many-fermion system is discussed. We show that he did not solve his model properly because of the paradoxical fact that the density operator commutators [p(p), p(-p')], which always vanish for any finite number of particles, no longer vanish in ...Many-electron problem; Fermi surface; Boson field; Dirac sea1965
12 Ailion, David CharlesCommensurability and defect-induced phason gaps in incommensurate systemsThe phason energy gap has been observed to increase on going from the incommensurate to higher-order commensurate phases in the "devil's staircase" compound [N(CH3)4]2ZnCl4. The gap was determined via the phason-induced 1 4N spin-lattice relaxation contribution, which was obtained from the variati...Phasons; Commensurate; Incommensurate; Lattices; Modulation1985

It is shown that the observed phonon frequencies and the relative intensities of all modes obtained at various laser ex...Induced infrared activity; Ag modes; Amplitude modes; Phase modes; Trans-polyacetylene1987-07
14 Vardeny, Zeev Valentine; Ehrenfreund, Eitan A.Resonant Raman scattering from amplitude modes in trans-(CH)x and -(CD)xThe three resonantly enhanced Raman vibrations in trans-(CK)x and ~(CD)X are described in terms of amplitude modes associated with the Peierls gap. The dispersion in the Raman-line profiles is explained by inhomogeneity. A narrow distribution of the effective electron-phonon coupling constant is re...Peierls gap1983-12
15 Wu, Yong-ShiDeformed Hubbard operator, bosonization, and phase diagram of the one-dimensional t-J modelWe present an analytic study of the phase diagram of the one-dimensional t-J model and a couple of its cousins. To deal with the interactions induced by the no double occupancy constraints, we introduce a deformation of the Hubbard operators. When the deformation parameter ∆ is small, the induced...Hubbard operator; Bosonization; Deformation; t-J model2002-10
16 Ailion, David Charles14N study of the role of N-D---O bonds in the deuteron glass transition14N spin-lattice relaxation-time measurements in Rb0.28(ND4)0.72D2PO4 provide direct evidence for the fast exchange averaging of the "long" and "short" N-D---O hydrogen bonds between the ND4 group and the four surrounding PO4 groups. This exchange and the associated distortion of the ND4 tetrahedron...NMR; Hydrogen bonds; Spin-lattice; Relaxation-time; Deuteron glass1999
17 Mattis, Daniel C.Tricritical point in random-field Ising modelThe numerical investigation of the random-field Ising model by Houghton, Khurana, and Seco1 has revealed a number of interesting features concerning the three-dimensional Ising model in a random external field Bt.

18 Vardeny, Zeev Valentine; Taylor, P. CraigExcitation energy dependence of photoinduced absorption in intrinsic a-Si:HWe have studied subgap absorption of intrinsic a-Si:H induced by below- and above-gap photoexcitation. We find very similar photoinduced subgap absorption spectra when excited with 2.4 eV or 1.2 eV light. Both spectra exhibit a power-law dependence on laser intensity ?T ~ 1a, where a is 0.5 and 0.7...Intrinsic a-Si:H; Subgap absorption; Photoinduced absorption; Gap photoexcitation; Photomodulation; Electronic states1998
19 Gondolo, PaoloSimple renormalizable flavor symmetry for neutrino oscillationsThe recent measurement of a nonzero neutrino mixing angle θ13 requires a modification of the tri-bimaximal mixing pattern that predicts a zero value for it. We propose a new neutrino mixing pattern based on a spontaneously broken A4 flavor symmetry and a type-I seesaw mechanism. Our model allows fo...2012-01-01
20 DeTar, CarletonReggeon calculus as a low-order perturbation theory for the PomeronWe review the foundations of the Gribov Reggeon calculus with an emphasis on the relationship between the energy-plane and J-plane descriptions of the diagrams of the calculus.

23 Ailion, David CharlesThermal fluctuations and NMR spectra of incommensurate insulatorsThe effects of thermal order-parameter fluctuations on the NMR line shape of incommensurate systems are evaluated within the mean-field Landau theory and the results are compared with the 8 7Rb and 3 9K 1/2 -1/2 NMR spectra of Rb2ZnCl4 and K2Se04 just below the paraelectric-incommensurate transition...NMR spectra; Thermal fluctuations; Line shapes; Incommensurate insulators1994
24 Mishchenko, EugeneGeneration of spin current by Coulomb dragCoulomb drag between two quantum wires is exponentially sensitive to the mismatch of their electronic densities. The application of a magnetic field can compensate this mismatch for electrons of opposite spin directions in different wires. The resulting enhanced momentum transfer leads to the conv...Spin current; Coulomb drag; Quantum wires2006-12
