• Abstract summary: In one dimension (1D), the physics of interacting electrons is captured well at low energies by the Tomonaga-Luttinger model. We report on measurements of many-body modes in 1D gated-wires using tunnelling spectroscopy. Our findings demonstrate the existence of spin-charge separation in the whole energy band outside the low-energy limit of validity of the Tomonaga-Luttinger model.

• Abstract: An electron is usually considered to have only one form of kinetic energy, but could it have more, for its spin and charge, by exciting other electrons? In one dimension (1D), the physics of interacting electrons is captured well at low energies by the Tomonaga-Luttinger model, yet little has been observed experimentally beyond this linear regime. Here, we report on measurements of many-body modes in 1D gated-wires using tunnelling spectroscopy. We observe two parabolic dispersions, indicative of separate Fermi seas at high energies, associated with spin and charge excitations, together with the emergence of two additional 1D 'replica' modes that strengthen with decreasing wire length. The effective interaction strength is varied by changing the amount of 1D inter-subband screening by over 45%. Our findings demonstrate the existence of spin-charge separation in the whole energy band outside the low-energy limit of validity of the Tomonaga-Luttinger model, and also set a constraint on the validity of the newer nonlinear Tomonaga-Luttinger theory.

  electron spin of a color center in diamond mediates interaction between a long-lived nuclear spin and a photon. We demonstrate strong coupling of its electron spin, while the electron spin's decoherence rate remained below 1 MHz. We furthermore demonstrate multi-spin coupling with the potential to establish registers of quantum memories in nanodiamonds.

  We experimentally investigate individual spin dynamics in a two-dimensional ensemble of electron spins on the surface of a diamond crystal. We show that this anomalously slow relaxation rate is due to the presence of strong dynamical disorder. Our work paves the way towards microscopic study and control of quantum thermalization in strongly interacting disordered spin ensembles.

• Emergent s-wave interactions between identical fermions in quasi-one-dimensional geometries [0.0]
  A low-energy scattering channel has even particle-exchange parity along the q1D axis, as if the underlying interactions were s-wave. This emergent exchange symmetry is enabled by orbital singlet wave functions in the strongly confined directions. We measure both the q1D odd-wave and even-wave "contact" parameters for the first time, and compare them to theoretical predictions of one-dimensional many-body models.

  We report on a strategy to boost the spin injection rate by exploiting electrons that can be rapidly polarized. We demonstrate this in a model system of Nitrogen Vacancy center electrons injecting polarization into a bath of 13C nuclei in diamond. Through a spin-ratchet polarization transfer mechanism, we show boosts in spin injection rates by over two orders of magnitude.

• Semiconductor nanodevices as a probe of strong electron correlations [0.0]
  We look at how tunnelling spectroscopy can be used as the experimental tool of choice for probing correlation and interaction effects in 1D electron systems. We present some early experimental results obtained using tunnelling devices and how they contributed to the decisive observation of both spin-charge separation and power-law behaviour. In the second half of the chapter we introduce two nonlinear models that are counterparts to the TLL theory, known as the mobile-impurity and the mode-hierarchy pictures.
