Microwave-Induced Dephasing in One-Dimensional Metal Wires
We report on the effect of monochromatic microwave (MW) radiation on the weak
localization corrections to the conductivity of quasi-one-dimensional (1D)
silver wires. Due to the improved electron cooling in the wires, the MW-induced
dephasing was observed without a concomitant overheating of electrons over wide
ranges of the MW power and frequency . The observed dependences of
the conductivity and MW-induced dephasing rate on and are in
agreement with the theory by Altshuler, Aronov, and Khmelnitsky \cite{Alt81}.
Our results suggest that in the low-temperature experiments with 1D wires,
saturation of the temperature dependence of the dephasing time can be caused by
an MW electromagnetic noise with a sub-pW power.Comment: 4 pages with 4 figures, paper revised, accepted by Phys Rev Let

Multiangle static and dynamic light scattering in the intermediate scattering angle range
We describe a light scattering apparatus based on a novel optical scheme
covering the scattering angle range 0.5\dg \le \theta \le 25\dg, an
intermediate regime at the frontier between wide angle and small angle setups
that is difficult to access by existing instruments. Our apparatus uses
standard, readily available optomechanical components. Thanks to the use of a
charge-coupled device detector, both static and dynamic light scattering can be
performed simultaneously at several scattering angles. We demonstrate the
capabilities of our apparatus by measuring the scattering profile of a variety
of samples and the Brownian dynamics of a dilute colloidal suspension
Interaction effects among two-dimensional electrons and holes
We report large logarithmic corrections to the conductivity of two-dimensional electrons and holes in GaSb-InAs-GaSb double heterostructures. From ∼ 40 mK to 1 K, the conductivity increased with the logarithm of the temperature but with a slope as much as 30 times larger than estimated from the theories of weak localization and carrier interaction. The discrepancy apparently results from electron-hole interactions not included in the theory
