Dynamics of wavepacket tunneling in a periodic double-well potential

Temporal evolution of wavepacket tunneling in a periodic double-well torsional potential has been studied numerically. Peculiarities of wavepacket tunneling dynamics under conditions of asymmetric distortion of the periodic potential function have been analyzed. __________ Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii, Vol. 75, No. 3, pp. 342–346, May–June, 2008.     

Adiabatic tunneling of Bose–Einstein condensates with modulated atom interaction in a double-well potential

We study the adiabatic tunneling of Bose–Einstein condensates in a symmetric double-well potential when the interaction strength between the atoms is modulated linearly or in a cosine periodic form. It is shown that the system evolves along a nonlinear eigenstate path. In the case of linear modulation under the adiabatic approximation conditions, the tunneling probability of the condensate atoms to the other potential well is half. However, when the system is periodically scanned in the adiabatic process, we find an interesting phenomenon. A small change in the cycle period can lead to the condensate atoms returning to the right well or tunneling to the left well. The system comes from a linear eigenstate back to a nonlinear one, which is completely different from the linear eigenstate evolution. We explain the results by using the energy level and the phase diagram.     

Localization or tunneling in asymmetric double-well potentials

An asymmetric double-well potential is considered, assuming that the wells are parabolic around the minima. The WKB wave function of a given energy is constructed inside the barrier between the wells. By matching the WKB function to the exact wave functions of the parabolic wells on both sides of the barrier, for two almost degenerate states, we find a quantization condition for the energy levels which reproduces the known energy splitting formula between the two states. For the other low-lying non-degenerate states, we show that the eigenfunction should be primarily localized in one of the wells with negligible magnitude in the other. Using Dekker’s method (Dekker, 1987), the present analysis generalizes earlier results for weakly biased double-well potentials to systems with arbitrary asymmetry.     

Quantum tunneling of ultracold atoms in optical traps

We review our theoretical advances in quantum tunneling of BoseEinstein condensates in optical traps and in microcavities. By employing a real physical system, the frequencies of the pseudo Goldstone modes in different phases between two optical traps are studied respectivdy, which are tile crucial feature of the non-Abelian Joseptmon effect. When the optical lattices are under gravity, we investigate the quantum tummling in the ＂Wannier-Stark localization＂ regime and ＂Lan（lau Zener tunneling＂ regime. We finally get the total decay rate and the rate is valid over the entire range of temperatures. At high temperatures, we show how the decay rate reduces to the appropriate results for the classical thermal activation. At hltermediate temperatures, the results of tile total decay rate are consistent with the thermally assisted tunneling. At low temperatures, we obtain the pure quantmn tunneling ultimately. And we study the alternating-current and direct-current （ac and de） photonic 3osephson effects in two weakly linked microcavities containing ultracold two-level atones, which allows for direct observation of the effects. This enables new investigations of the effect of maw-body physics in strongly coupled atom-cavity systems and provides a strategy for constructing novel interference devices of coherent photons. In addition, we propose the experimental protocols to observe these quantmn tunneling of Bose- Einstein condensates.     

Superfluidity of Paired Bosons from Correlated Tunneling

We study superfluidity of paired Bosonic atoms in optical lattices. The atoms have strong repulsive on-slte energy. Single atom tunneling is severely suppressed while the atom-pair may co-tunnel by the second order quantum transition, which induces paired superfluidity as repulsive nearest-neighbor interactions are included. The mean-field phase diagram and low energy excitations are explored for a square lattice system.     

Gaussian wavepacket dynamics and quantum tunneling in asymmetric double-well systems

We have studied dynamical properties and quantum tunneling in asymmetric double-well (DW) systems, by solving Schrödinger’s equation with the use of two kinds of spectral methods for initially squeezed Gaussian wavepackets. Time dependences of wavefunction, averages of position and momentum, the auto-correlation function, an uncertainty product and the tunneling probability have been calculated. Our calculations have shown that (i) the tunneling probability is considerably reduced by a potential asymmetry ΔU$\Delta U$, (ii) a resonant tunneling with |ΔU|?κ?ω$\left|\Delta U\right|?\kappa ?\omega$ is realized for motion starting from the upper minimum of asymmetric potential wells, but not for motion from lower minimum (κ=0,1,2,…$\kappa =0,1,2,\dots$; ω$\omega$: oscillator frequency at minima), (iii) the reduction of the tunneling probability by an asymmetry is less significant for the Gaussian wavepacket with narrower width, and (iv) the uncertainty product 〈δx²〉〈δp²〉$〈\delta x^2〉〈\delta p^2〉$ in the resonant tunneling state is larger than that in the non-resonant tunneling state. The item (ii) is in contrast with the earlier study [D. Mugnai, A. Ranfagni, M. Montagna, O. Pilla, G. Viliani, M. Cetica, Phys. Rev. A 38 (1988) 2182] which showed the symmetric result for motion starting from upper and lower minima.
