In this thesis I employ effective Hamiltonian models to study the electronic structure of materials. With these models I study charge- and spin-injection induced by optical absorption processes, and current-injection induced by quantum interference processes between different orders of absorption. I study the optical response of narrow stripes (''nanoribbons'') of monolayer graphene, monolayers of tin atoms (''stanene''), and alloys of AlGaAs.

520 $a In this thesis I employ effective Hamiltonian models to study the electronic structure of materials. With these models I study charge- and spin-injection induced by optical absorption processes, and current-injection induced by quantum interference processes between different orders of absorption. I study the optical response of narrow stripes (''nanoribbons'') of monolayer graphene, monolayers of tin atoms (''stanene''), and alloys of AlGaAs.
520 $a First I focus on graphene nanoribbons with zigzag shapes along their lengths, along which strongly localized (''edge'') states exist at the Fermi level of undoped samples. I present results for different chemical potentials, showing that edge states are responsible for the main contribution to the optical response at low photon energies (<1 eV).
520 $a Next, I study stanene, a monolayer of tin atoms arranged in a buckled honeycomb lattice with Dirac-like cones in its bandstructure. The spin-orbit coupling in stanene is significant and leads to a small band gap opening of about 90~meV. I present a scheme to extract an effective Hamiltonian model starting from an ab-initio calculation. I keep track of the quality of the approximations by a careful analysis of the electronic energies and the states obtained with this effective model. Using this model I study the one- and two-photon absorption, and spin-injection by circularly polarized light.
520 $a Finally, I investigate the optical coherent control of charge currents by two- and three-photon absorption (''2+3'') processes in alloys of Al alphaGa1--alphaAs. An important feature of this material is that its electronic bandstructure can be tailored to photon energies of interest. Compared to lower orders of interference, such as the 1+2 scheme, in 2+3 coherent control the laser intensities required for maximal effects are larger, but the optical response is richer, the number of optical coefficients is larger, the interference processes occur in smaller regions in the Brillouin zone, and the electronic swarm velocities are higher.
