We conduct a combined experimental and theoretical study of the quantum-confined Stark effect in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum dots obtained with the local droplet etching method. In the experiment, we probe the permanent electric dipole and polarizability of neutral and positively charged excitons weakly confined in GaAs quantum dots by measuring their light emission under the influence of a variable electric field applied along the growth direction. Calculations based on the configuration-interaction method show excellent quantitative agreement with the experiment and allow us to elucidate the role of Coulomb interactions among the confined particles and -- even more importantly -- of electronic correlation effects on the Stark shifts. Moreover, we show how the electric field alters properties such as built-in dipole, binding energy, and heavy-light hole mixing of multiparticle complexes in weakly confining systems, underlining the deficiencies of commonly used models for the quantum-confined Stark effect.

We present a detailed investigation of different excitonic states weakly confined in single GaAs/AlGaAs quantum dots obtained by the Al droplet-etching method. For our analysis we make use of temperature-, polarization- and magnetic field-dependent $
mu$-photoluminescence measurements, which allow us to identify different excited states of the quantum dot system. Besides that, we present a comprehensive analysis of g-factors and diamagnetic coefficients of charged and neutral excitonic states in Voigt and Faraday configuration. Supported by theoretical calculations by the Configuration interaction method, we show that the widely used single-particle Zeeman Hamiltonian cannot be used to extract reliable values of the g-factors of the constituent particles from excitonic transition measurements.
We report variation of the work function for single and bi-layer graphene devices measured by scanning Kelvin probe microscopy (SKPM). Using the electric field effect, the work function of graphene can be adjusted as the gate voltage tunes the Fermi
level across the charge neutrality point. Upon biasing the device, the surface potential map obtained by SKPM provides a reliable way to measure the contact resistance of individual electrodes contacting graphene.
Photoluminescence data from single, self-assembled InAs/InP quantum dots in magnetic fields up to 7 T are presented. Exciton g-factors are obtained for dots of varying height, corresponding to ground state emission energies ranging from 780 meV to 11
00 meV. A monotonic increase of the g-factor from -2 to +1.2 is observed as the dot height decreases. The trend is well reproduced by sp3 tight binding calculations, which show that the hole g-factor is sensitive to confinement effects through orbital angular momentum mixing between the light-hole and heavy-hole valence bands. We demonstrate tunability of the exciton g-factor by manipulating the quantum dot dimensions using pyramidal InP nanotemplates.
When magnetic skyrmions are moved via currents, they do not strictly travel along the path of the current, instead their motion also gains a transverse component. This so-called skyrmion Hall effect can be detrimental in potential skyrmion devices be
cause it drives skyrmions towards the edge of their hosting material where they face potential annihilation. Here we experimentally modify a skyrmion model system - an atomic Pd/Fe bilayer on Ir(111) - by decorating the film edge with ferromagnetic Co/Fe patches. Employing spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy, we demonstrate that this ferromagnetic rim prevents skyrmion annihilation at the film edge and stabilizes skyrmions and target states in zero field. Furthermore, in an external magnetic field the Co/Fe rim can give rise to skyrmions pinned to the film edge. Spin dynamics simulations reveal how a combination of different attractive and repulsive skyrmion-edge interactions can induce such an edge-pinning effect for skyrmions.
Phonon engineering focuses on heat transport modulation on atomic-scale. Different from reported methods, it is shown that electric field can also modulate heat transport in ferroelectric polymers, poly(vinylidene fluoride), by both simulation and me
asurement. Interestingly, thermal conductivities of poly(vinylidene fluoride) array can be enhanced by a factor of 3.25 along the polarization direction by simulation. The semi-crystalline poly(vinylidene fluoride) film can be also enhanced by a factor of 1.5 which is found by both simulation and measurement. The morphology and phonon property analysis reveal that the enhancement arises from the higher inter-chain lattice order, stronger inter-chain interaction, higher phonon group velocity and suppressed phonon scattering. This study offers a new modulation strategy with quick response and without fillers.
