Landau Diamagnetism Revisited Sushanta Dattagupta†,**, Arun M. Jayannavar‡ and Narendra Kumar# †S.N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, Block JD, Sector III, Salt Lake, Kolkata 700 098, India ‡Institute of Physics, Sachivalaya Marg, Bhubaneswar 751 005, India #Raman Research Institute, Bangalore 560 080, India The problem of diamagnetism, solved by Landau, continues to pose fascinating issues which have relevance even today. These issues relate to inherent quantum nature of the problem, the role of boundary and dissipation, the meaning of thermodynamic limits, and above all, the quantum–classical crossover occasioned by environment- induced decoherence. The Landau diamagnetism provides a unique paradigm for discussing these issues, the significance of which is far-reaching. Our central result connects the mean orbital magnetic moment, a thermodynamic property, with the electrical resistivity, which characterizes transport properties of material. In this communication, we wish to draw the attention of Peierls to term diamagnetism as one of the surprises in the reader to certain enigmatic issues concerning dia- theoretical physics4. Landau’s pathbreaking result also magnetism. Indeed, diamagnetism can be used as a demonstrated that the calculation of diamagnetic suscep- prototype phenomenon to illustrate the essential role of tibility did indeed require an explicit quantum treatment. quantum mechanics, surface–boundary, dissipation and Turning to the classical domain, two of the present nonequilibrium statistical mechanics itself. authors had worried, some years ago, about the issue: Diamagnetism is a material property that characterizes does the BV theorem survive dissipation5? This is a natu- the response of an ensemble of charged particles (more ral question to ask as dissipation is a ubiquitous property specifically, electrons) to an applied magnetic field. -

Solid State Physics 2 Lecture 5: Electron Liquid
Physics 7450: Solid State Physics 2 Lecture 5: Electron liquid Leo Radzihovsky (Dated: 10 March, 2015) Abstract In these lectures, we will study itinerate electron liquid, namely metals. We will begin by re- viewing properties of noninteracting electron gas, developing its Greens functions, analyzing its thermodynamics, Pauli paramagnetism and Landau diamagnetism. We will recall how its thermo- dynamics is qualitatively distinct from that of a Boltzmann and Bose gases. As emphasized by Sommerfeld (1928), these qualitative di↵erence are due to the Pauli principle of electons’ fermionic statistics. We will then include e↵ects of Coulomb interaction, treating it in Hartree and Hartree- Fock approximation, computing the ground state energy and screening. We will then study itinerate Stoner ferromagnetism as well as various response functions, such as compressibility and conduc- tivity, and screening (Thomas-Fermi, Debye). We will then discuss Landau Fermi-liquid theory, which will allow us understand why despite strong electron-electron interactions, nevertheless much of the phenomenology of a Fermi gas extends to a Fermi liquid. We will conclude with discussion of electrons on the lattice, treated within the Hubbard and t-J models and will study transition to a Mott insulator and magnetism 1 I. INTRODUCTION A.

Quantum Optics in Nanostructures
nanomaterials Review Quantum Optics in Nanostructures Yulia V. Vladimirova 1,2,*,† and Victor N. Zadkov 2,3,† 1 Department of Physics and Quantum Technology Centre, Lomonosov Moscow State University, 119991 Moscow, Russia 2 Faculty of Physics, Higher School of Economics, Old Basmannya 21/4, 105066 Moscow, Russia; [email protected] 3 Institute of Spectroscopy of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Fizicheskaya Str. 5, Troitsk, 108840 Moscow, Russia * Correspondence: [email protected] † These authors contributed equally to this work. Abstract: This review is devoted to the study of effects of quantum optics in nanostructures. The mechanisms by which the rates of radiative and nonradiative decay are modified are considered in the model of a two-level quantum emitter (QE) near a plasmonic nanoparticle (NP). The distributions of the intensity and polarization of the near field around an NP are analyzed, which substantially depend on the polarization of the external field and parameters of plasmon resonances of the NP. The effects of quantum optics in the system NP + QE plus external laser field are analyzed—modification of the resonance fluorescence spectrum of a QE in the near field, bunching/antibunching phenomena, quantum statistics of photons in the spectrum, formation of squeezed states of light, and quantum entangled states in these systems. Keywords: nanophotonics; nanoplasmonics; nanostructure; quantum emitter; two-level system; quantum optics; resonance fluorescence; antibunching and quantum statistics of photons; squeezed -

micromachines Review Recent Advances in Vertically Aligned Nanowires for Photonics Applications Sehui Chang, Gil Ju Lee and Young Min Song * School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST), 123 Cheomdangwagi-ro, Buk-gu, Gwangju 61005, Korea; [email protected] (S.C.); [email protected] (G.J.L.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-62-715-2655 Received: 29 June 2020; Accepted: 25 July 2020; Published: 26 July 2020 Abstract: Over the past few decades, nanowires have arisen as a centerpiece in various fields of application from electronics to photonics, and, recently, even in bio-devices. Vertically aligned nanowires are a particularly decent example of commercially manufacturable nanostructures with regard to its packing fraction and matured fabrication techniques, which is promising for mass-production and low fabrication cost. Here, we track recent advances in vertically aligned nanowires focused in the area of photonics applications. Begin with the core optical properties in nanowires, this review mainly highlights the photonics applications such as light-emitting diodes, lasers, spectral filters, structural coloration and artificial retina using vertically aligned nanowires with the essential fabrication methods based on top-down and bottom-up approaches. Finally, the remaining challenges will be briefly discussed to provide future directions. Keywords: nanowires; photonics; LED; nanowire laser; spectral filter; coloration; artificial retina 1. Introduction In recent years, nanowires originated from a wide variety of materials have arisen as a centerpiece for optoelectronic applications such as sensors, solar cells, optical filters, displays, light-emitting diodes and photodetectors [1–12]. Tractable but outstanding, optical features of nanowire arrays achieved by modulating its physical properties (e.g., diameter, height and pitch) allow to confine and absorb the incident light considerably, albeit its compact configuration. -

Diamagnetism of Metals
Diamagnetism of Metals Andrey Rikhter 15 November 2018 1 Biography Lev Davidovich Landau was born on January 9th, 1908, in Baku, which was part of the Russian Empire at that time [1]. He received his bachelor’s degree from Leningrad Polytechnical University (now St. Petersburg) from 1924-1927, only a few years after the Russian Revolution. Due to political turmoil, he did not receive a doctorate until 1934. In 1929, Landau was granted permission to go abroad to Germany, where he met with many prominent physicists of the time, such as Pauli and Peierls [2]. It was during that time, at the age of 22, that he wrote his paper on diamagnetism. His later work focused on developing a theoretical background for phase transitions, superfluidity of liquid helium, and superconductivity. Besides his contribution to theoretical physics, his most notable achievement was his famously difficult textbooks. Together with one of his students, Evegeny M. Lifshitz, he co-authored this series of physics texts, designed for graduate students. His life came to a tragic end after a car crash in 1962; he survived but never recovered completely and died while undergoing surgery in 1968. 2 Theory of magnetism up to 1930 2.1 Magnetism due to orbiting electrons By 1929, the contributions to the magnetic properties of metals were believed to be due to several effects: the contribution from the core electrons, and the contribution from the conduction electrons of the atoms. In the following sections, the quantum theory will be applied to conduction electrons. By 1929, people had a good understanding of the contribution of the core electrons to the magnetic properties of metals. -
