We present theoretical results concerning inelastic light (Raman) scattering from semiconductor quantum dots. The characteristics of each dot state (whether it is a collective or single-particle excitation, its multipolarity, and its spin) are determined independently of the Raman spectrum, in such a way that common beliefs used for level assignments in experimental spectra can be tested. We explore the usefulness of below band gap excitation and an external magnetic field to identify charge and spin excited states of a collective or single-particle nature.

We study electronic contribution to the Raman scattering signals of two-, three- and four-layer graphene with layers at one of the interfaces twisted by a small angle with respect to each other. We find that the Raman spectra of these systems feature two peaks produced by van Hove singularities in moir{e} minibands of twistronic graphene, one related to direct hybridization of Dirac states, and the other resulting from band folding caused by moir{e} superlattice. The positions of both peaks strongly depend on the twist angle, so that their detection can be used for non-invasive characterization of the twist, even in hBN-encapsulated structures.
The electronic Raman scattering (ERS) features of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) can reveal a wealth of information about their electronic structures, but have previously been thought to appear exclusively in metallic (M-) but not in semiconducting (S-) SWNTs. We report the experimental observation of the ERS features with an accuracy of 1 meV in suspended S-SWNTs, the processes of which are accomplished via the available high-energy electron-hole pairs. The ERS features can facilitate further systematic studies on the properties of SWNT, both metallic and semiconducting, with defined chirality.
Intratube quantum dots showing particle-in-a-box-like states with level spacings up to 200meV are realized in metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes by means of low dose medium energy Ar irradiation. Fourier transform scanning tunneling spectroscopy compared to results of a Fabry-Perot electron resonator model yields clear signatures for inter- and intra-valley scattering of electrons confined between consecutive irradiation-induced defects (inter-defects distance < 10nm). Effects arising from lifting the degeneracy of the Dirac cones within the first Brillouin zone are also observed.
We report experimental measurements of electronic Raman scattering under resonant conditions by electrons in individual single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). The inelastic Raman scattering at low frequency range reveals a single particle excitation feature and the dispersion of electronic structure around the center of Brillouin zone of a semiconducting SWNT (14, 13) is extracted.
We present a fully electronic analogue of coherent population trapping in quantum optics, based on destructive interference of single-electron tunneling between three quantum dots. A large bias voltage plays the role of the laser illumination. The trapped state is a coherent superposition of the electronic charge in two of these quantum dots, so it is destabilized as a result of decoherence by coupling to external charges. The resulting current I through the device depends on the ratio of the decoherence rate Gamma_phi and the tunneling rates. For Gamma_phi --> 0 one has simply I=e Gamma_phi. With increasing Gamma_phi the current peaks at the inverse trapping time. The direct relation between I and Gamma_phi can serve as a means of measuring the coherence time of a charge qubit in a transport experiment.
