Tunneling times through a barrier with inelasticity

Tunneling delay times of wavepackets in quantum mechanical penetration of rectangular barriers have long been known to show a perplexing independence with respect to the width of the barrier. This also has relevance to the transmission of evanescent waves in optics. Some authors have claimed that in the presence of absorption or inelastic channels (which they model by taking a complex barrier potential) this effect no longer exists, in that the time delay becomes proportional to the barrier width. Taking the point of view that complex potentials imply non-Hermitian Hamiltonians and are as such fraught with conceptual pit-falls particularly in connection to problems involving time evolution, we have constructed a two-channel model which does not suffer from such limitations in order to examine this issue. We find that the conclusions arrived at by the earlier authors need to be more precisely specified.

Normally-Ordered Time Evolution Operator for Mass-Varying Harmonic Oscillator and Wigner Function of Squeezed Number State

For investigating dynamic evolution of a mass-varying harmonic oscillator we constitute a ket-bra integration operator in coherent state representation and then perform this integral by virtue of the technique of integration within an ordered product of operators. The normally ordered time evolution operator is thus obtained. We then derive the Wigner function of u（t）｜n,〉, where ｜n〉 is a Fock state, which exhibits a generalized squeezing, the squeezing effect is related to the varying mass with time.

Wigner distribution function of Gaussian beam through an apertured and misaligned ABCD optical system

By expanding the hard aperture function into a finite sum of complex Gaussian functions, approximate analytical expressions of Wigner distribution function for fundamental mode Gaussian beam through an apertured and misaligned ABCD optical system are derived. Compared with the aligned case, results show that the misaligned optical system will introduce in the output Wigner distribution function a coordinate shift in space-frequency plane. To examine the analytical results, some numerical simulations are carried out and the absolute errors between analytical results and numerical integral ones are presented. It is shown that the approximate analytical results are proper and ascendant.     

Decoherence of elliptical states in phase space

The effects of decoherence on elliptical states which concern the quantum superposition of N coherent states on an ellipse in the α plane are studied.The characteristic decoherence times are determined.The evolutions of the Wigner functions associated with these states are investigated theoretically and the losses of nonclassicality as a result of decoherence are discussed.The result shows that the decoherence of elliptical states is slower than circular states relying on the number of coherent states and the amplitude,and the constructed states have a higher resilience to losses.     

The Wigner distribution function of a super Lorentz–Gauss SLG_(11) beam through a paraxial ABCD optical system

An orthonormal beam family of super Lorentz-Gauss （SLG） beam model is proposed to describe the higher-order mode beams with high divergence, which are generated by a high power diode laser. Here we consider the simplest case of the SLG beams, where there are four mutually orthogonal SLG beams, namely SLG00, SLG01, SLG10, and SLGll beams. The SLG00 beam is just the Lorentz-Gauss beam. Based on the Collins integral formula and the Hermite-Gaussian expansion of a Lorentz function, an analytical expression for the Wigner distribution function （WDF） of an SLG11 beam through a paraxial ABCD optical system is derived. The properties of the WDF of an SLG11 beam propagating in free space are demonstrated. The normalized WDFs of an SLG11 beam at the different spatial points are depicted in several observation planes. The influence of the beam parameter on the WDF of an SLGI 1 beam in free space is analyzed at different propagation distances. The second-order moments of the WDF of an SLG11 beam in free space are also examined. This research reveals the propagation properties of an SLGll beam from another perspective. The WDFs of SLG01 and SLG10 beams can be easily obtained by using the WDFs of Lorentz-Gauss beam and the SLG11 beam.

States in the Hilbert space formulation and in the phase space formulation of quantum mechanics

We consider the problem of testing whether a given matrix in the Hilbert space formulation of quantum mechanics or a function considered in the phase space formulation of quantum theory represents a quantum state. We propose several practical criteria for recognising states in these two versions of quantum physics. After minor modifications, they can be applied to check positivity of any operators acting in a Hilbert space or positivity of any functions from an algebra with a ∗$\ast$-product of Weyl type.     

Scheme for Direct Measurement of Wigner Characteristic Function for Motion of a Single Trapped Ion

In this paper, a procedure is proposed for measuring Wigner characteristic function for motion of a single trapped ion. In the scheme, the trapped ion is driven by two laser beams with different frequencies tuned to the first lower and upper vibrational sidebands, respectively. Unlike other previous scheme, our scheme does not require the displacement of the external state before the ion-laser interaction and thus our scheme might be more simple and feasible. The scheme can also be used to prepare the motional Schr(o)dinger cat states and entangled coherent states.     

New transformation of Wigner operator in phase space quantum mechanics for the two-mode entangled case

As a natural and important extension of Fan's paper (Fan Hong-Yi 2010 Chin. Phys. B 19 040305) by employing the formula of operators' Weyl ordering expansion and the bipartite entangled state representation this paper finds a new two-fold complex integration transformation about the Wigner operator Δ ( μ,v ) (in its entangled form) in phase space quantum mechanics, and its inverse transformation. In this way, some operator ordering problems regarding to ( a₁⁺-a₂) and (a₁+a₂⁺) can be solved and the contents of phase space quantum mechanics can be enriched, where a_i,a_i⁺ are bosonic creation and annihilation operators, respectively.     

New approach for deriving the exact time evolution of the density operator for a diffusive anharmonic oscillator and its Wigner distribution function

Using thermal entangled state representation,we solve the master equation of a diffusive anharmonic oscillator(AHO) to obtain the exact time evolution formula for the density operator in the infinitive operator-sum representation.We present a new evolution formula of the Wigner function(WF) for any initial state of the diffusive AHO by converting the WF calculation into an overlap between two pure states in an enlarged Fock space.It is found that this formula is very convenient in investigating the WF’s evolution of any known initial state.As applications,this formula is used to obtain the evolution of the WF for a coherent state and the evolution of the photon-number distribution of diffusive AHOs.

The Wigner function and phase properties of superposition of two coherent states with the vacuum state

This paper discusses some statistical properties of the superposition of two coherent states with a vacuum state, such as sub-Poissonian photon statistics and negativity of the Wigner function. Phase probability distribution and phase variance are calculated. Special cases of the constructed superposition states are presented. The results show that depending on the vacuum state coefficient γ and the coherent state coefficient α, it can generate a variety of nonclassical states.
