Improving holographic particle characterization by modeling spherical aberration

Kavli Affiliate: Vinothan Manoharan | First 5 Authors: Caroline Martin, Brian Leahy, Vinothan Manoharan, , | Summary: Holographic microscopy combined with forward modeling and inference allows colloidal particles to be characterized and tracked in three dimensions with high precision. However, current models ignore the effects of optical aberrations on hologram formation. We investigate the effects […]

Vibronic coupling in energy transfer dynamics and two-dimensional electronic-vibrational spectra

Kavli Affiliate: Graham R. Fleming | First 5 Authors: Eric A. Arsenault, Addison J. Schile, David T. Limmer, Graham R. Fleming, | Summary: We introduce a heterodimer model in which multiple mechanisms of vibronic coupling and their impact on energy transfer can be explicitly studied. We consider vibronic coupling that arises through either Franck-Condon activity […]

Supersymmetry and multicriticality in a ladder of constrained fermions

Kavli Affiliate: Natalia Chepiga | First 5 Authors: Natalia Chepiga, Jiří Minář, Kareljan Schoutens, , | Summary: Supersymmetric lattice models of constrained fermions are known to feature exotic phenomena such as superfrustration, with an extensive degeneracy of ground states, the nature of which is however generally unknown. Here we address this issue by considering a […]
