Current Density and Local Magnetic Field of Spontaneous Magnetization States in One-Dimensional Superconducting Corner Junction Arrays

Current density and local magnetic field of spontaneous magnetization states in one-dimensional superconducting connected corner-junction arrays have been analysed by solving the phase equation of the arrays. The solutions can be expressed by the Jacobian elliptic functions, which have been calculated numerically. Our results show that the corner fluxons with a fraction of half flux quantum are arranged in an antiferromagnetic fashion, which is In agreement with the recent experiments observed by Hilgenkamp et al. (Nature 422(2003)50). In addition,we present the magnetization flux of each corner junction in the array as a function of facet length.     

Efficient Multiparty Quantum Secret Sharing with Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger States

An effcient multiparty quantum secret sharing scheme is proposed with Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger （GHZ） states following some ideas in quantum dense coding. The agents take the single-photon measurements on the photons received for eavesdropping check and exploit the four local unitary operations Ⅰ, σx, σx and iσy to code their message. This scheme has the advantage of high capacity as each GHZ state can carry two bits of information. The parties do not need to announce the measuring bases for almost all the photons, which will reduce the classical information exchanged largely. The intrinsic efficiency for qubits and the total effciency both approach the maximal values.     

Quantum Effect in the Mesoscopic RLC Circuits with a Source

The research work on the quantum effects in mesoscopic circuits has undergone a rapid development recently, however the whole quantum theory of the mesoscopic circuits should consider the discreteness of the electric charge. In this paper, based on the fundamental fact that the electric charge takes discrete values, the finite-difference Schrodinger equation of the mesoscopic RLC circuit with a source is achieved. With a unitary transformation, the Schrodinger equation becomes the standard Mathieu equation, then the energy spectrum and the wave functions of the system are obtained. Using the WKBJ method, the average of durrents and square of the current are calculated. The results show the existence of the current fluctuation, which causes noise in the circuits. This paper is an application of the whole quantum mesoscopic circuits theory to the fundamental circuits, and the results will shed light on the design of the miniation circuits, especially on the purpose of reducing quantum noise coherent controlling of the mesoscopic quantum states.

High efficient scheme for remote state preparation with cavity QED

In this paper, a scheme is proposed for remote state preparation （RSP） with cavity quantum electrodynamics （QED）. In our scheme, two observers share two-atom nonmaximally entangled state as quantum channels and can realize remote preparation of state of an atom. We also propose a generalization for remote preparation of N-atom entangled state by （N＋1）-atom GHZ-like state （N ≥ 2）. By this scheme, one single-atom projective measurement is enough for the RSP of a qubit or N-atom entangled state, and the probability of success for RSP is unity. Furthermore, we have considered the case where observers use W-like state as quantum channels to realize RSP of a qubit. We compare our scheme with existing ones.

It is easy to implement this network of cloning machine in the framework of cavity QED and feasible in the experiment.     

Field Quantization and Spontaneous Emission in Left-handed Material

Recently, research on left-handed materials （LHMs） has attracted considerable attentions. The LHMs are a kind of man-made metameterials which have negative permittivity and negative permeability. These metameterials have many novel properties such as inverse light pressure, and reverse Doppler effect, which lead to many potential applications of LHMs such as superlenses which, in principle, can achieve arbitrary subwavelength resolution. However, though the properties mentioned above are seen to be classical, the quantum phenomena in LHMs have also attracted attentions such as the modified spontaneous emission of atoms in LHME.

We propose a scheme to implement two-bit .quantum phase gates and one-bit unitary gates by using the two- mode two-photon Jaynes Cummings model. The entanglement between the atom and cavity is also investigated in the presence of phase decoherence. It is found that there is stationary entanglement that is sensitive with the detuning     

Quantum interference effects in a multidriven transition Fg=3←→Fe=2

We have theoretically and experimentally studied the quantum coherence effects of a degenerate transition Fg =3←→Fe=2 system interacting with a weak linearly polarized （with σ＋ components） probe light and a strong linearly polarized （with σ＋ components） coupling field. Due to the competition between the drive Rabi frequency and the Zeeman splitting, electromagnetically induced transparency （EIT） and electromagnetically induced absorption （EIA） are present at the different values of applied magnetic field in the case where the Zeeman splitting of excited state Δe is larger than the Zeeman splitting of ground state Δg （i.e.Δe 〉 Δg）.     

Tunable Kondo Effect of a Three-Terminal Transport Quantum Dot Embedded in an Aharonov-Bohm Ring

We theoretically investigate the Kondo effect of a three-terminal transport quantum dot （QD） embedded in an Aharonov-Bohm ring in the Kondo regime by means of the one-impurity Anderson Hamiltonian. The Hamiltonian is solved by means of the slave-boson mean-field theory. We find that in this system, the Kondo effect depends sensitively oil the parity and size of the ring; the Kondo screening cloud can be tuned by tuning the coupling strength of the reservoir-dot. Thus this model might be a candidate for future device applications.     

Efficient Construction of High-Dimensional Cluster State

We present a scheme for efficiently constructing high-dimensional cluster state using probabilistic entangling quantum gates. It is shown that the required computational overhead scales efficiently both with lip and n even if all the entangling quantum gates only succeed with an arbitrary small probability, where p is the success probability of the entangling quantum gate and n is the number of qubits in the computation.     

Spontaneous emission spectrum of a three-level atom embedded in photonic crystal

The two models of three-level (one upper level and two lower levels, or two upper levels and one lower level) atom embedded in a double-band photonic crystal are adopted. The atomic transitions from the upper levels to the lower levels are assumed to be coupled by the same reservoir which are respectively the isotropic photonic band gap (PBG) modes, the anisotropic PBG modes and the free vacuum modes. The effects of the fine structure of the atomic ground state levels in the model with one upper level and two lower levels, and the quantum interferences in the model with two upper levels and one lower level on the spontaneous emission spectrum of an atom are investigated in detail. Most interestingly, it is shown that new spontaneous emission lines are produced from the fine splitting of atomic ground state levels in the isotropic PBG case. The quantum interferences induce additional narrow spontaneous lines near the transition from the empty upper level to the lower level.     

An applicable and resource-economical scheme for the teleportation of W state via spin-path entangled quantum channel

In this paper, we accomplish the teleportation of an unknown three-particle maximally entangled W state by using a spin-path entangled quantum channel which may be realized experimentally based on the advanced theory and technique in Bose-Einstein condensate （BEC） of molecule, micro-fabricated wave guide and simple quantum logic gate. Similarly, we can make an arbitrary n-particle entangled Greenberger Horne-Zeilinger （GHZ） state （n ≥ 4） teleported through this kind of quantum channel. It may have important applications due to its resource-economic and practical features.     

Effects of Induced Flux on Andreev Levels in a Quantum Point Contact Embedded in Superconducting Ring

We investigate the effects of flux induced by persistent current on the states of Andreev levels in a quantum point contact (QPC) embedded in a superconducting ring. The Andreev levels correspond to the bound states in the QPC created by multiple reflection at the boundaries. We self-consistently calculate the eigenstates and persistent current of such a system with different external fluxes threaded through the ring by using a tight-binding model with Bogoliubov-de Gennes potential. We show that the induced flux can significantly change the dependence of the Andreev levels and the persistent current on the external flux if the inductance of the system is large. By solving the time-dependent Schroedinger equation we obtain the dynamical behaviour of Andreev states in the presence of flux oscillations in the equivalent LC circuit.     

Anticrossing Gap between Pairs of the Subbands in AlxGa1-xN/GaN Double Quantum Wells

Dependences of anticrossing gaps between pairs of subbands in Alx Ga1-xN/GaN double quantum wells （DQWs） on the width and the Al composition of the central barrier of the DQWs and on the well width of the DQWs have been investigated by solving the Schroedinger and Poisson equations self-consistently. It is found that the anticrossing gaps are not influenced by the polarization-induced electric field in the DQWs. The anticrossing gaps decrease with increasing the width and the Al composition of the central barrier of the DQWs, as well as with the increasing well width of the DQWs. According to the results of the calculation, the anticrossing gaps can reach 150 meV in AlxGa1-xN/GaN DQWs. There is significant coupling between the two wells of the DQWs when the width of the central barrier of the DQWs is narrower than 2nm.     

Order Parameter of a Nanometre-Scale S-Wave Superconducting Grain in Quantum Tunnelling Process： Frequency Space Analysis

A nano-scale s-wave superconducting grain, coupled to a normal metallic contact through a tunnelling junction, is placed in an external magnetic field. We suppose that effect of this quantum tunnelling on the Fourier transform of the order parameter is in the form of a small additive correction to the BCS order parameter. At the first order approximation in terms of this correction term and by using an instanton method, the related Green functions （in frequency space） are obtained. By establishing a self-consistent configuration an analytic formula for the order parameter is also found. We also show that a departure from superconductivity can be captured by this formula. This change of state is indeed a manifestation of a quantum transition induced by quantum fluctuations. In this sense, this is an advantage of our simple method which, like other more elaborate methods, can detect a quantum transition in the state of the grain.     

Concurrence of Quantum States： Algebraic Dynamical Method Study XXX Models in a Time-Depending Random External Field

Based on algebraic dynamics and the concept of the concurrence of the entanglement, we investigate the evolutive properties of the two-qubit entanglement that formed by Heisenberg XXX models under a time-depending external field. For this system, the property of the concurrence that is only dependent on the coupling constant J and total values of the external field is proved. Furthermore, we found that the thermal concurrence of the system under a static random external field is a function of the coupling constant J, temperature T, and the magnitude of external field.

Four Electrons in a Coupled Three-Layer Quantum Dot

We investigate four electrons confined in a coupled three-layer quantum dot, by the exact diagonalization method. A vertical magnetic field to the confinement plane is considered. The ground-state electronic structures and angular momentum transitions are investigated. We find that for four-electron Q Ds, the Series of the magic numbers in three-layer QDs are different from those in one-, and two-layer Q Ds. These are connected to the exchange and rotational symmetries of the systems.
