We calculate the conductance through strongly correlated T-shaped molecular or quantum dot systems under the influence of phonons. The system is modelled by the extended Anderson–Holstein Hamiltonian. The finite-U mean-field slave boson approach is used to study many-body effects. Phonons influence both interference and correlations. Depending on the dot unperturbed energy and the strength of electron–phonon interaction, the system is occupied by a different number of electrons that effectively interact with each other repulsively or attractively. This leads, together with the interference effects, to different spin or charge Fano–Kondo effects.

The complex coupling between charge carriers and phonons is responsible for diverse phenomena in condensed matter. We apply ultrafast electron diffuse scattering to unravel electron-phonon coupling phenomena in 1T-TiSe2 in both momentum and time. We are able to distinguish effects due to the real part of the many-body bare electronic susceptibility, R[χ0(q)], from those due to the electron-phonon coupling vertex, gq, by following the response of semimetallic (normal-phase) 1T-TiSe2 to the selective photo-doping of carriers into the electron pocket at the Fermi level. Quasi-impulsive and wave vector–specific renormalization of soft zone-boundary phonon frequencies (stiffening) is observed, followed by wave vector–independent electron-phonon equilibration. These results unravel the underlying mechanisms driving the phonon softening that is associated with the charge density wave transition at lower temperatures.

We use the Feynman–Haken path-integral formalism to obtain the polaronic correction to the ground state energy of an electron in a polar semiconductor quantum dot with parabolic confinement in both two and three dimensions. We perform calculations for the entire range of the electron–phonon coupling parameter and for arbitrary confinement length. We apply our results to several semiconductor quantum dots and show that the polaronic effect in some of these dots can be considerably large if the dot sizes are made smaller than a few nanometers.

Coherent Multi-dimensional Spectroscopy is ideally suited to investigate many-body effects in semiconductor nanostructures. Here we employ 2D optical spectroscopy on the model system of CdSe quantum dots to reveal the structure of the bandedge biexciton.
