Time travel without paradoxes: Ring resonator as a universal paradigm for looped quantum evolutions
PublicationA ring resonator involves a scattering process where a part of the output is fed again into the input. The same formal structure is encountered in the problem of time travel in a neighborhood of a closed timelike curve (CTC). We know how to describe quantum optics of ring resonators, and the resulting description agrees with experiment. We can apply the same formal strategy to any looped quantum evolution, in particular to the...

The photocurrent quantum efficiency dependence on the applied voltage in organic solar cells
PublicationWe demonstrate that our recently reported model (Szmytkowski 2007 J. Phys. D: Appl. Phys. 40 3352) of the photocurrent quantum efficiency in organic semiconductors explains the external quantum efficiency dependence on the electric field in organic solar cells. This effect can be explained by taking into account that the photogeneration of charge carriers occurs via the electron-hole pair dissociation and the space charge effects...

The power of silence? opinion contagion and the surprise of the polish 2005 parlamentary and presidential elections
PublicationThis paper investigates opinion contagion in collective behaviour using threshold model (Granovetter (1978), Krassa(1988)). The theoretical background is the spiral of silence concept developed by Noelle-Neumann (1974), arguing that people only assert their opinions if they perceive a minimal support from a relevant proportion of others. We apply the model to explain the dispersion between pre-elections preferences and the final...
