Influence of phase-space localization on the energy diffusion in a quantum chaotic billiard

The quantum dynamics of a chaotic billiard with moving boundary is considered in this paper. We found a shape parameter Hamiltonian expansion, which enables us to obtain the spectrum of the deformed billiard for deformations so large as the characteristic wavelength. Then, for a specified time-dependent shape variation, the quantum dynamics of a particle inside the billiard is integrated directly. In particular, the dispersion of the energy is studied in the Bunimovich stadium billiard with oscillating boundary. The results showed that the distribution of energy spreads diffusively for the first oscillations of the boundary (=2Dt). We studied the diffusion constant D as a function of the boundary velocity and found differences with theoretical predictions based on random matrix theory. By extracting highly phase-space localized structures from the spectrum, previous differences were reduced significantly. This fact provides numerical evidence of the influence of phase-space localization on the quantum diffusion of a chaotic system.     

Quantum spectra and classical periodic orbit in the cubic billiard

Quantum billiards have attracted much interest in many fields. People have made a lot of researches on the two-dimensional (2D) billiard systems. Contrary to the 2D billiard, due to the complication of its classical periodic orbits, no one has studied the correspondence between the quantum spectra and the classical orbits of the three-dimensional (3D) billiards. Taking the cubic billiard as an example, using the periodic orbit theory, we find the periodic orbit of the cubic billiard and study the correspondence between the quantum spectra and the length of the classical orbits in 3D system. The Fourier transformed spectrum of this system has allowed direct comparison between peaks in such plot and the length of the periodic orbits, which verifies the correctness of the periodic orbit theory. This is another example showing that semiclassical method provides a bridge between quantum and classical mechanics.     

The Spectrum of the Billiard Laplacian of a Family of Random Billiards

Random billiards are billiard dynamical systems for which the reflection law giving the post-collision direction of a billiard particle as a function of the pre-collision direction is specified by a Markov (scattering) operator P. Billiards with microstructure are random billiards whose Markov operator is derived from a “microscopic surface structure” on the boundary of the billiard table. The microstructure in turn is defined in terms of what we call a billiard cellQ, the shape of which completely determines the operator P. This operator, defined on an appropriate Hilbert space, is bounded self-adjoint and, for the examples considered here, a Hilbert-Schmidt operator. A central problem in the statistical theory of such random billiards is to relate the geometric characteristics of Q and the spectrum of P. We show, for a particular family of billiard cell shapes parametrized by a scale invariant curvature K (Fig. 2), that the billiard Laplacian P−I is closely related to the ordinary spherical Laplacian, and indicate, by partly analytical and partly numerical means, how this provides asymptotic information about the spectrum of P for small values of K. It is shown, in particular, that the second moment of scattering about the incidence angle closely approximates the spectral gap of P.     

Raman scattering and hot luminescence spectra of Zn1 − x Mn x Te quantum wires

The Raman scattering and luminescence spectra of Zn_{1 − x} Mn _x Te (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.6) quantum wires have been investigated. The quantum wires have been grown by molecular-beam epitaxy on the (100)GaAs substrate with Au used as a catalyst. The spectrum of optical phonons in ZnMnTe quantum wires varies with a variation in x in accordance with an intermediate (between one- and two-mode) type of transformation. The optical phonon spectrum has been analyzed in terms of the microscopic theory. It has been demonstrated that the experimental data can be brought in accord with the theory by properly modifying the calculated density of phonon states for ZnTe. The spatial confinement has been found to affect the electronic states in Zn_{1 − x} Mn _x Te quantum wires.     

Experimental and theoretical structure and vibrational analysis of ethyl trifluoroacetate,CF3CO2CH2CH3

The molecular structure and conformational properties of ethyl trifluoroacetate, CF₃CO₂CH₂CH₃, were determined in the gas phase by electron diffraction, and vibrational spectroscopy (IR and Raman). The experimental investigations were supplemented by ab initio (MP2) and DFT quantum chemical calculations at different levels of theory. Experimental and theoretical methods result in two structures with C_s (anti–anti) and C₁ (anti–gauche) symmetries, the former being slightly more stable than the latter. The electron‐diffraction data are best fitted with a mixture of 56% anti–gauche and 44% anti–anti conformers. The conformational preference was also studied using the total energy scheme, and the natural bond orbital scheme. Also, the infrared spectra of CF₃CO₂CH₂CH₃ are reported for the gas, liquid and solid states, as is the Raman spectrum of the liquid. The comparison of experimental averaged IR spectra of C_s and C₁ conformers provides evidence for the predicted conformations in the IR spectra. Harmonic vibrational wavenumbers and scaled force fields have been calculated for both conformers. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Laser optogalvanic spectrum of pure bromine discharge

Doppler limited laser optogalvanic (LOG) spectra are obtained by irradiating a bromine discharge with a cw dye laser. The discrete bands of the Br₂ B-X system appear superimposed on a strong continuum. The LOG spectrum is closely identical with the absorption/emission spectrum of Br₂. Some extra bands and assigned in theB-X system are also observed and their vibrational quantum number assignment is given.     

ThermoElectric Transport Properties of a Chain of Quantum Dots with Self-Consistent Reservoirs

We introduce a model for charge and heat transport based on the Landauer-Büttiker scattering approach. The system consists of a chain of N quantum dots, each of them being coupled to a particle reservoir. Additionally, the left and right ends of the chain are coupled to two particle reservoirs. All these reservoirs are independent and can be described by any of the standard physical distributions: Maxwell-Boltzmann, Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein. In the linear response regime, and under some assumptions, we first describe the general transport properties of the system. Then we impose the self-consistency condition, i.e. we fix the boundary values (T _L,μ _L) and (T _R,μ _R), and adjust the parameters (T _i ,μ _i ), for i=1,…,N, so that the net average electric and heat currents into all the intermediate reservoirs vanish. This condition leads to expressions for the temperature and chemical potential profiles along the system, which turn out to be independent of the distribution describing the reservoirs. We also determine the average electric and heat currents flowing through the system and present some numerical results, using random matrix theory, showing that these currents are typically governed by Ohm and Fourier laws.     

On the signs of quantum chaos in a scattering billiard K system with kinks of the lateral boundary

Signs of quantum chaos in the spectra of linear Hamiltonian systems including scattering billiards of various configurations with kinks of the lateral surface have been experimentally studied. A billiard with kinks of the lateral surface at which the second derivative is indefinite constitutes a scattering K system. As a result, the spectrum of such a billiard and the corresponding model resonator becomes chaotic and the distribution of spectral intervals is close to a Wigner distribution. The spectral rigidity curves have been measured for a model microwave cavity whose shape is similar to the scattering billiard with kinks of the lateral surface. It has been found that the characteristics of the chaotic spectrum, the distribution of the spectral intervals, and the spectral rigidity curves for billiards with kinks of the lateral boundary exhibit signs of quantum chaos.     

Quantum Mechanical Analysis of the Equilateral Triangle Billiard: Periodic Orbit Theory and Wave Packet Revivals

Using the fact that the energy eigenstates of the equilateral triangle infinite well (or billiard) are available in closed form, we examine the connections between the energy eigenvalue spectrum and the classical closed paths in this geometry, using both periodic orbit theory and the short-term semi-classical behavior of wave packets. We also discuss wave packet revivals and show that there are exact revivals, for all wave packets, at times given by T_rev=9μa²/4?π where a and μ are the length of one side and the mass of the point particle, respectively. We find additional cases of exact revivals with shorter revival times for zero-momentum wave packets initially located at special symmetry points inside the billiard. Finally, we discuss simple variations on the equilateral (60°-60°-60°) triangle, such as the half equilateral (30°-60°-90°) triangle and other “foldings,” which have related energy spectra and revival structures.
