  1. 1. Microscopic modelling of exciton-exciton interactions in atomically thin semiconductors

    Author : Daniel Erkensten; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; transition-metal dichalcogenides; dark excitons; density matrix formalism; exciton-exciton interactions;

    Abstract : The successful isolation and characterization of the technologically promising material graphene in 2004 has spurred huge interest in other two-dimensional materials. Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), being one such class of materials, display intriguing properties from both a fundamental and techno- logical point of view. READ MORE

  2. 2. Strong exciton-photon and exciton-exciton coupling and its effects on molecular photophysics

    Author : Yi Yu; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Strong coupling; triplet transition dynamics; TADFs; aggregate states;

    Abstract : The energy of molecular states and their transition dynamics form the key properties to understand the photophysics of organic molecules. Strong exciton-photon and exciton-exciton couplings enable the possibility to manipulate these properties without changing the chemical structures. This is due to the formation of new energy states.

  3. 3. Microscopic Modeling of Exciton-Polaritons in Two-Dimensional Materials

    Author : Beatriz Ferreira; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; exciton-polaritons; 2D materials; diffusion; absorption;

    Abstract : Integrating 2D materials into high-quality optical microcavities opens the door to fascinating many-particle phenomena including the formation of exciton-polaritons. These are hybrid quasi-particles inheriting properties of both the constituent photons and excitons. READ MORE

  4. 4. Quantum Theory of Exciton-Exciton Interactions in Atomically Thin Semiconductors

    Author : Daniel Erkensten; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; excitons; transition-metal dichalcogenides; many-body theory; van der Waals heterostructures; 2D materials;

    Abstract : Atomically thin materials such as transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have emerged as an unprecedented platform for engineering future optoelectronic devices and studying exotic quantum phases of matter. In particular, the strong Coulomb interaction in these materials enables the formation of tightly-bound excitons, electron-hole pairs with neither purely fermionic nor bosonic character. READ MORE

  5. 5. Collective Excitation Dynamics in Molecular Aggregates

    Author : Mats Dahlbom; Kemisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; Kemi; Fysik; Physics; computational methods; photosynthesis; femtosecond spectroscopy; Exciton; Polaron;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to study collective excitation dynamics in molecular aggregates. Half of the work presented here is method development and the remainder is application of these methods to several di.erent molecular aggregates. READ MORE
