Recently discovered new structures and zero-resistance states outside the well-known oscillations are demonstrated to arise from multiphoton assisted processes, by a detailed analysis of microwave photoresistance in two-dimensional electron systems under enhanced radiation. The concomitant resistance dropping and peak narrowing observed in the experiments are also reproduced. We show that the radiation-induced suppression of average resistance comes from virtual photon effect and exists throughout the whole magnetic field range.

Effects of microwave radiation on magnetoresistance are analyzed in a balance-equation scheme that covers regimes of inter- and intra-Landau level processes and takes account of photon-asissted electron transitions as well as radiation-induced change of the electron distribution for high mobility two-dimensional systems. Short-range scatterings due to background impurities and defects are shown to be the dominant direct contributors to the photoresistance oscillations. The electron temperature characterizing the system heating due to irradiation, is derived by balancing the energy absorption from the radiation field and the energy dissipation to the lattice through realistic electron-phonon couplings, exhibiting resonant oscillation. Microwave modulations of Shubnikov de Haas oscillation amplitude are produced together with microwave-induced resistance oscillations, in agreement with experimental findings. In addition, the suppression of the magnetoresistance caused by low-frequency radiation in the higher magnetic field side is also demonstrated.
We report the observation of inverse-magnetic-field-periodic, radiation-induced magnetoresistance oscillations in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures prepared in W. Wegscheiders group, compare their characteristics with similar oscillations in V. Umanskys material, and describe the lineshape variation vs. the radiation power, $P$, in the two systems. We find that the radiation-induced oscillatory $Delta R_{xx}$, in both materials, can be described by $Delta R_{xx} = -A exp(-lambda/B)sin(2 pi F/B)$, where $A$ is the amplitude, $lambda$ is the damping parameter, and $F$ is the oscillation frequency. Both $lambda$ and $F$ turn out to be insensitive to $P$. On the other hand, $A$ grows nonlinearly with $P$.
We present a theory of the phonon-assisted nonlinear dc transport of 2D electrons in high Landau levels. The nonlinear dissipative resistivity displays quantum magneto-oscillations governed by two parameters which are proportional to the Hall drift velocity $v_H$ of electrons in electric field and the speed of sound $s$. In the subsonic regime, $v_H<s$, the theory quantitatively reproduces the oscillation pattern observed in recent experiments. We also find the $pi/2$ phase change of oscillations across the sound barrier $v_H=s$. In the supersonic regime, $v_H>s$, the amplitude of oscillations saturates with lowering temperature, while the subsonic region displays exponential suppression of the phonon-assisted oscillations with temperature.
We report an universal behaviour of hopping transport in strongly interacting mesoscopic two-dimensional electron systems (2DES). In a certain window of background disorder, the resistivity at low perpendicular magnetic fields follows the expected relation $rho(B_perp) = rho_{rm{B}}exp(alpha B_perp^2)$. The prefactor $rho_{rm{B}}$ decreases exponentially with increasing electron density but saturates to a finite value at higher densities. Strikingly, this value is found to be universal when expressed in terms of absolute resistance and and shows quantisation at $R_{rm{B}}approx h/e^2$ and $R_{rm{B}}approx 1/2$ $ h/e^2$. We suggest a strongly correlated electronic phase as a possible explanation.
We investigate the phases of two-dimensional electron-hole systems strongly coupled to a microcavity photon field in the limit of extreme charge imbalance. Using variational wave functions, we examine the competition between different electron-hole paired states for the specific cases of semiconducting III-V single quantum wells, electron-hole bilayers, and transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers embedded in a planar microcavity. We show how the Fermi sea of excess charges modifies both the electron-hole bound state (exciton) properties and the dielectric constant of the cavity active medium, which in turn affects the photon component of the many-body polariton ground state. On the one hand, long-range Coulomb interactions and Pauli blocking of the Fermi sea promote electron-hole pairing with finite center-of-mass momentum, corresponding to an excitonic roton minimum. On the other hand, the strong coupling to the ultra-low-mass cavity photon mode favors zero-momentum pairs. We discuss the prospect of observing different types of electron-hole pairing in the photon spectrum.
