Dynamics and spectra in condensed phases : single molecule spectroscopy, electron transfer, and excitation energy transfer
… environment. In particular, the photon counting statistics is investigated for a single molecule undergoing a generic type of spectral diffusion process. An exact analytical solution is found for this case, and various physical limits are analyzed. Second, motivated by recent experimental …

Neural Processing in the Three Layer Turtle Visual Cortex
… we investigate criticality and the statistics of neural activity over a range of scales in the turtle visual cortex. We use neuronal avalanches to reveal scale-free cortical dynamics and power-law statistics, which have been hypothesized to optimize information processing.

Spectroscopy and external control of optical dynamics in single semiconductor nanocrystals
… nearby environment. With the aid of a simple yet powerful fluorescence far-field microscope, we examine the blinking phenomenon using statistical analysis to determine a temperature-independent physical mechanism (charge tunneling) that is universal to every nanocrystal. Furthermore, we uncover a …

Dynamic weakening and trained memory in avalanche dynamics from high-entropy alloys to neurons and spin systems
… reveals underlying critical points and scaling laws in non-equilibrium complex systems. In crystalline solids, I analyze slip statistics in high-entropy alloys and construct phase diagrams that capture the influence of strain rate and temperature. Extending mean-field theory to finite healing …
