Giant Two-photon Absorption in Circular Graphene Quantum Dots in Infrared Region.

Abstract:

:We investigate theoretically the two-photon absorption (TPA) for circular graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with the edge of armchair and zigzag on the basis of electronic energy states obtained by solving the Dirac-Weyl equation numerically under finite difference method. The expressions for TPA cross section are derived and the transition selection rules are obtained. Results reveal that the TPA is significantly greater in GQDs than conventional semiconductor QDs in infrared spectrum (2-6 um) with a resonant TPA cross section of up to 10(11 )GM. The TPA peaks are tuned by the GQDs' size, edge and electron relaxation rate.

  • High-harmonic generation and parametric amplification in the soft X-rays from extended electron trajectories.

    abstract::We report, for the first time, the generation of high-order harmonics in a spectral range between 200 eV and 1 keV with an unusual spectral property: only every 4(th) (4i + 1, i∈ℵ) harmonic line appears, whereas the usual high-harmonic spectra consist of every odd (2i + 1) harmonic. We attribute this unique property t...
