Landau-Zener tunneling of fermi superfluid gases in deep BEC regime

The dynamical phenomena of the Landau–Zener tunneling of the superfluid fermi gases in a double-well potential in deep BEC regime is investigated in this paper. The contribution of the higher order term representing the lowest approximation of beyond mean field corrections is considered. By using the corresponding classical Hamiltonian of the system, the fixed points and adiabatic energy levels are studied. The critical parameter for the number of fixed points evolution from two to four is obtained. For the nonlinear Landau–Zener tunneling, the tunneling probability with sweeping rate α$\alpha$ is numerically given. At the adiabatic limit, the tunneling probability is not zero in certain regime, while it goes to zero in the other regime. Exponential dependence of the transition probability on the sweeping rate α$\alpha$ in certain case is obtained.

Coulomb effects in artificial molecules

We study the capacitance spectra of artificial molecules consisting of two and three coupled quantum dots from an extended Hubbard Hamiltonian model that takes into account quantum confinement, intra- and inter-dot Coulomb interaction and tunneling coupling between all single particle states in nearest neighbor dots. We find that, for weak coupling, the interdot Coulomb interaction dominates the formation of a collective molecular state. We also calculate the effects of correlations on the tunneling probability through the evaluation of the spectral weights, and corroborate the importance of selection rules for understanding experimental conductance spectra.     

Electron-magnon coupling and nonlinear tunneling transport in magnetic nanoparticles

We present a theory of single-electron tunneling transport through a ferromagnetic nanoparticle in which particle-hole excitations are coupled to spin collective modes. The model employed to describe the interaction between quasiparticles and collective excitations captures the salient features of a recent microscopic study. Our analysis of nonlinear quantum transport in the regime of weak coupling to the external electrodes is based on a rate-equation formalism for the nonequilibrium occupation probability of the nanoparticle many-body states. For strong electron-boson coupling, we find that the tunneling conductance as a function of bias voltage is characterized by a large and dense set of resonances. Their magnetic field dependence in the large-field regime is linear, with slopes of the same sign. Both features are in agreement with recent tunneling experiments.

Rotating wave approximation: systematic expansion and application to coupled spin pairs

We propose a new treatment of the dynamics of a periodically time-dependent Liouvillian by mapping it onto a time-independent problem and give a systematic expansion for its effective Liouvillian. In the case of a two-level system, the lowest order contribution is equivalent to the well-known rotating wave approximation. We extend the formalism to a pair of coupled two-level systems. For this pair, we find two Rabi frequencies and we can give parameter regimes where the leading order of the expansion is suppressed and higher orders become important. These results might help to investigate the interaction of tunneling systems in mixed crystals by providing a tool for the analysis of echo experiments. Received 2 September 1998     

Concrete quantum tunneling spectrum of Schwarzschild black holes

In this paper,a canonical ensemble model for black hole quantum tunneling radiation is introduced.We find that the probability distribution function is the same as the emission rate of a spherical shell in the Parikh-Wilczek tunneling framework.With this model,the probability distribution function corresponding to the emission shell system is calculated.Therefore,the concrete quantum tunneling spectrum of the Schwarzschild black hole is obtained.     

Dynamic transport characteristics of side-coupled double-quantum-impurity systems

A systematic study is performed on time-dependent dynamic transport characteristics of a side-coupled double-quantum-impurity system based on the hierarchical equations of motion. It is found that the transport current behaves like a single quantum dot when the coupling strength is low during tunneling or Coulomb coupling. For the case of only tunneling transition, the dynamic current oscillates due to the temporal coherence of the electron tunneling device. The oscillation frequency of the transport current is related to the step voltage applied by the lead, while temperature $T$, electron--electron interaction $U$ and the bandwidth $W$ have little influence. The amplitude of the current oscillation exists in positive correlation with $W$ and negative correlation with $U$. With the increase in coupling $t_{12}$ between impurities, the ground state of the system changes from a Kondo singlet of one impurity to a spin singlet of two impurities. Moreover, lowering the temperature could promote the Kondo effect to intensify the oscillation of the dynamic current. When only the Coulomb transition is coupled, it is found that the two split-off Hubbard peaks move upward and have different interference effects on the Kondo peak at the Fermi surface with the increase in $U_{12}$, from the dynamics point of view.     

半导体三量子点中的多透明窗口及弱光孤子的调控

考虑半导体量子点间隧穿耦合效应,研究非对称半导体三量子点分子中的弱探测光的传播特性。线性情况下,由于点间隧穿耦合和外部控制光的协同调控,探测光的吸收特性将出现共振吸收、隧穿诱导透明单窗口、隧穿诱导透明双窗口及隧穿诱导透明三窗口的转变。此外,从反常色散到正常色散的开关效应可通过改变隧穿强度及光学控制场强度来实现。对于非线性情况,发现孤子的振幅随着点间隧穿耦合系数增大呈先增大再减小随即再次增大并减小的波动变化趋势且出现最大振幅及其对应的点间隧穿耦合强度随着外部控制光场的增大而减小。此外,发现孤子的群速度随着耦合强度的增加呈逐渐减小的趋势。     

自旋场效应晶体管中隧道磁阻的势垒相关反转效应

考虑自旋场效应晶体管中Rashba自旋轨道相互作用和自旋输运量子相干性,研究了势垒强度对自旋场效应晶体管的自旋相关量子输运的影响. 研究发现,势垒强度较低时,隧道结电导随Rashba自旋轨道相互作用强度的变化呈现明显的振荡现象,势垒强度较高时,电导表现出明显的势垒相关“电导开关”现象. 当势垒强度逐渐增强时,平行结构电导呈现出单调下降趋势,而反平行结构电导产生波动,这种波动导致该隧道磁阻也随势垒强度的变化表现出振荡现象,且在合适的准一维电子气厚度情况下隧道磁阻值可以产生正负反转,这个效应将会在基于自旋的电子器件信息的存储上获得应用. 关键词： 自旋场效应管 开关效应 量子相干 隧道磁阻

Time Correlation in Tunneling of Photons

I propose to consider photon tunneling as a space-time correlation phenomenon between the emission and absorption of a photon on the two sides of a barrier. Standard technics based on an appropriate counting rate formula may then be applied to derive the tunneling time distribution without any ad hoc definition of this quantity. General formulae are worked out for a potential model using Wigner–Weisskopf method. For a homogeneous square barrier in the limit of zero tunneling probability a vanishing tunneling time is obtained.     

Cooling of nanomechanical resonators by thermally activated single-electron transport

We show that the vibrations of a nanomechanical resonator can be cooled to near its quantum ground state by tunneling injection of electrons from a scanning tunneling microscope tip. The interplay between two mechanisms for coupling the electronic and mechanical degrees of freedom results in a bias-voltage-dependent difference between the probability amplitudes for vibron emission and absorption during tunneling. For a bias voltage just below the Coulomb blockade threshold, we find that absorption dominates, which leads to cooling corresponding to an average vibron population of the fundamental bending mode of 0.2.     

Photon blockade in a cavity-atom optomechanical system

We study the single-photon blockade (1PB), two-photon blockade (2PB), and photon-induced tunneling (PIT) effects in a cavity-atom optomechanical system in which a two-level atom is coupled to a single-model cavity field via a two-photon interaction. By analyzing the eigenenergy spectrum of the system, we obtain a perfect 1PB with a high occupancy probability of single-photon excitation, which means that a high-quality and efficient single-photon source can be generated. However, PIT often occurs in many cases when we consider 2PB in analogy to 1PB. In addition, we find that a 2PB region will present in the optomechanical system, which can be proved by calculating the correlation function of the model analytically.     

Theory of surface polarons

We investigate the possibility that an electron may be trapped at the surface of an ionic crystal by the electron-surface optical phonon interaction. For a model Hamiltonian used earlier in a discussion of the inelastic scattering of low energy electrons by surface optical phonons, we find that for all values of the polaron coupling constant α, this trapping does occur. We refer to these surface states as surface polaron states. By the use of a variational procedure, we calculate the surface polaron binding energy and effective mass as a function of α. The present treatment does not include the coupling of the electron to bulk LO phonons.     

Multiphoton resonances in a system of interacting josephson qubits

The behavior of the level population of two coupled qubits as a function of the system parameters and characteristics of the driving field has been studied. In the case where the tunneling splitting of qubit levels is small, the explicit expression for the transition probability describing multiphoton processes of any order and resonance conditions dependent on the qubit coupling constant have been obtained. The possibility of experimentally observing the discovered effects is discussed.     

Tunneling dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates with higher-order interactions in optical lattice

The nonlinear Landau-Zener tunneling and nonlinear Rabi oscillations of Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) with higher-order atomic interaction between the Bloch bands in an accelerating optical lattice are discussed. Within the two-level model, the tunneling probability of BEC with higher-order atomic interaction between Bloch bands is obtained. We finds that the tunneling rate is closely related to the higher-order atomic interaction. Furthermore, the nonlinear Rabi oscillations of BEC with higher-order atomic interaction between the bands are discussed by imposing a periodic modulation on the level bias. Analytical expressions of the critical higher-order atomic interaction for suppressing/enhancing the Rabi oscillations are obtained. It is shown that the critical value strongly depends on the modulation parameters (i.e., the modulation amplitude and frequency) and the strength of periodic potential.     

One η-Meson Exchange Potential of Nucleon-Nucleon at Finite Temperature

By means of the imaginary-time Green's function method,the temperature dependences of the η-meson and nucleon interaction coupling constant and one one η-meson exchange potential are discussed.We find that when temperature increases to 215MeV,the coupling constant approaches to zero and the one η-meson exchange potential of nucleon-nucleon disappears.     

Localization of matters on the bent brane in bulk

We investigate the possibility of localizing various matter fields on a bent AdS₄ (dS₄) thick brane in AdS₅. For spin 0 scalar field, we find a massless zero mode and an excited state which can be localized on the bent brane. For spin 1 vector field, there is only a massless zero mode on the bent brane. For spin 1/2 fermion field, it is shown that, in the case of no Yukawa coupling of scalar-fermion, there is no existence of localized massless zero mode for both left and right chiral fermions. In order to localize massless fermions, some kind of Yukawa coupling must be included. We study two types of Yukawa couplings as examples. Localization property of chiral fermions is related to the parameters of the brane model, the Yukawa coupling constant and the cosmological constant of the 4-dimensional space–time.
