Stark control of electrons along nanojunctions

Strong non-resonant few-cycle laser pulses can be used to induce ultrafast phase-controllable currents along nanojunctions but the microscopic origin is unclear. Here, the authors present time-dependent quantum transport simulations that recover the experimental observations and offer an intuitive p...
