Abstract
Atomically strong THz fields accelerate electrons in bulk semiconductors, new 2D materials, and atomically sharp tunneling junctions. By tracking this lightwave-driven charge transport with subcycle resolution, we explore dynamical Bloch oscillations as well as quasiparticle collisions and record the first single-molecule femtosecond movie.
期刊介绍:
Nonlinear Optics and Quantum Optics publishes primary papers reporting original research, review articles and rapid communications. The journal is divided into four main sections: 1. Principles: covering studies into the fundamental theoretical understanding of the origins and mechanisms of nonlinear optical processes; theoretical studies of application of controlled optical field to quantum information processing including quantum communication and computation and fundamental problems of quantum mechanics related to quantum information processing.
