We study the effects of layer thickness variations on the collective plasmon excitation modes of finite superlattices. Unlike
other symmetry lowering mechanisms, thickness variation does not strongly localize the surface modes. We find that the reason
for this insensitivity lies in the fact that the collective modes of a given finite structure must evolve continuously from
the single-finite-superlattice at zero thickness deviation into modes of a pair of uncoupled finite structures at large thickness
variation. We also show that this behavior is analogous to the evolution of molecular orbitals from atomic orbitals as the
internuclear separation is reduced, in contrast to the analogy of the superlattice modes as a stack of coupled quantum wells.
This emphasizes the difference between the electromagnetic symmetry of the finite superlattice and the structural symmetry.

The Jain's composite fermion wavefunction has proven quite succesful to describe most of the fractional quantum Hall states.
Its mathematical foundation lies in the Chern-Simons field theory for the electrons in the lowest Landau level, despite the
fact that such wavefunction is different from a typical mean-field level Chern-Simons wavefunction. It is known that the energy
excitation gaps for fractional Hall states described by Jain's composite fermion wavefunction cannot be calculated analytically.
We note that analytic results for the energy excitation gaps of fractional Hall states described by a fermion Chern-Simons
wavefunction are readily obtained by using a technique originating from nuclear matter studies. By adopting this technique
to the fractional quantum Hall effect we obtained analytical results for the excitation energy gaps of all fractional Hall
states described by a Chern-Simons wavefunction.

We investigate the effects of spatial asymmetry, tunneling coupling, and exchange-correlation correction on the plasmon modes
in asymmetric double quantum well (DQW) structures in a time-dependent local-density approximation. Special attention is paid
to the properties of the ω
- mode which is always damped in symmetric DQW systems. In addition, the results on the spectral weight of the excitations
are also presented. In general, all the modes carry finite spectral weights and should be observable in resonant inelastic
light scattering experiments for the specified values of the parameters.

For two discrete-level quantum systems in interaction, we follow the displacement in the complex plane of the eigen-energies
of the compound system when the excited level of one of the two systems is enlarged. These new points are usually called resonances
and describe mixed unstable states. This allows us to define and to calculate a critical value of the coupling constant which
separates two well-known coupling regimes. These two regimes are thus described in a unified way.
In the study, resonances which are usually not taken into account occur. They are studied in the large continuum case provided
by the coupling of the hydrogen atom to the states of the transverse electromagnetic field in the vacuum. We justify that
some of these resonances be neglected in this case. 相似文献

We have computed electronic structures and total energies of circularly confined two-dimensional quantum dots and their lateral
dimers in zero and finite uniform external magnetic fields using different theoretical schemes: the spin-density-functional
theory (SDFT), the current-and-spin-density-functional theory (CSDFT), and the variational quantum Monte Carlo (VMC) method.
The SDFT and CSDFT calculations employ a recently-developed, symmetry-unrestricted real-space algorithm allowing solutions
which break the spin symmetry. Results obtained for a six-electron dot in the weak confinement limit and in zero magnetic
field as well as in a moderate confinement and in finite magnetic fields enable us to draw conclusions about the reliability
of the more approximative SDFT and CSDFT schemes in comparison with the VMC method. The same is true for results obtained
for the two-electron quantum dot dimer as a function of inter-dot distance. The structure and role of the symmetry-breaking
solutions appearing in the SDFT and CSDFT calculations for the above systems are discussed.

We investigate the stability condition of large bipolarons confined in a parabolic potential containing certain parameters
and a uniform magnetic field. The variational wave function is constructed as a product form of electronic parts, consisting
of center of mass and internal motion, and a part of coherent phonons generated by Lee-Low-Pines transformation from the vacuum.
An analytical expression for the bipolaron energy is found, from which the ground and excited-state energies are obtained
numerically by minimization procedure. The bipolaron stability region is determined by comparing the bipolaron energy with
those of two separate polarons, which is already calculated within the same approximation. It is shown that the results obtained
for the ground state energy of bipolarons reduce to the existing works in zero magnetic field. In the presence of a magnetic
field, the stability of bipolarons is examined, for three types of low-dimensional system, as function of certain parameters,
such as the magnetic-field, the electron-phonon coupling constant, Coulomb repulsion and the confinement strength. Numerical
solutions for the energy levels of the ground and first excited states are examined as functions of the same parameters.

We analytically evaluate charge and spin density response functions of the
clean two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit coupling at finite
momenta and frequencies. On the basis of our exact expressions we discuss the
accuracy of the long-wavelength and the quasiclassical approximations. We also
derive the static limit of spin susceptibilities and demonstrate,
in particular, how the Kohn-like anomalies in their derivatives are related
to the spin-orbit modification of the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida
interaction. Taking into account screening and exchange effects of the Coulomb
interaction, we describe the collective charge and spin density excitation
modes which appear to be coupled due to nonvanishing spin-charge response
function. 相似文献

We report on the comprehensive numerical study of the fluctuation and correlation properties of wave functions in three-dimensional
mesoscopic diffusive conductors. Several large sets of nanoscale samples with finite metallic conductance, modeled by an Anderson
model with different strengths of diagonal box disorder, have been generated in order to investigate both small and large
deviations (as well as the connection between them) of the distribution function of eigenstate amplitudes from the universal
prediction of random matrix theory. We find that small, weak localization-type, deviations contain both diffusive contributions
(determined by the bulk and boundary conditions dependent terms) and ballistic ones which are generated by electron dynamics
below the length scale set by the mean free path ℓ. By relating the extracted parameters of the functional form of nonperturbative
deviations (“far tails”) to the exactly calculated transport properties of mesoscopic conductors, we compare our findings
based on the full solution of the Schr?dinger equation to different approximative analytical treatments. We find that statistics
in the far tail can be explained by the exp-log-cube asymptotics (convincingly refuting the log-normal alternative), but with
parameters whose dependence on ℓ is linear and, therefore, expected to be dominated by ballistic effects. It is demonstrated
that both small deviations and far tails depend explicitly on the sample size--the remaining puzzle then is the evolution
of the far tail parameters with the size of the conductor since short-scale physics is supposedly insensitive to the sample
boundaries.

We theoretically explore the possibility of creating spin
entanglement by simultaneously coupling two electronic spins to a
nuclear ensemble. By microscopically modeling the spin ensemble as a
single mode boson field, we use the time-dependent Fr?hlich
transformation (TDFT) method developed recently [Y. Li, C. Bruder, C.P. Sun, Phys. Rev. A 75, 032302 (2007)] to calculate
the effective coupling between the two spins. Our investigation
shows that the total system realizes a solid state based
architecture for cavity QED. Exchanging such kind of effective boson
in a virtual process can result in an effective interaction between
two spins. It is discovered that a maximum entangled state can be
obtained when the velocity of the electrons matches the initial
distance between them in a suitable way. Moreover, we also study how
the number of collective excitations influences the entanglement. It
is shown that the larger the number of excitation is, the less the
two spins entangle each other. 相似文献

We study the effect of polaronic corrections arising from theelectron-longitudinal optical phonon interaction on the energyspectrum of a two-dimensional electron system with a one-dimensionalperiodic antidot array geometry created by a weak electrostaticmodulation potential, and subjected to a weak magnetic fieldmodulation as well as a uniform strong perpendicular staticmagnetic field. To incorporate the effects of electron-phononinteractions within the framework of Fröhlich polaron theory, wefirst apply a displaced-oscillator type unitary transformation todiagonalise the relevant Fröhlich Hamiltonian, and we thendetermine the parameters of this transformation together with theparameter included in the electronic trial wave function . On thebasis of this technique, it has been shown that the polaroniccorrections have non-negligible effects on the electronic spectrumof a two-dimensional electron system with a quantum antidot array,since switching such an interaction results in shifting thedegeneracy restoring points of Landau levels wherein the flatbandcondition is fulfilled, thus suppressing the Weiss oscillations. 相似文献

Current quantum cryptography systems are limited by the attenuated coherent pulses they use as light sources: a security loophole
is opened up by the possibility of multiple-photon pulses. By replacing the source with a single-photon emitter, transmission
rates of secure information can be improved. We have investigated the use of single self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dots
as such single-photon sources, and have seen a tenfold reduction in the multi-photon probability as compared to Poissonian
pulses. An extension of our experiment should also allow for the generation of triggered, polarization-entangled photon pairs.
The utility of these light sources is currently limited by the low efficiency with which photons are collected. However, by
fabricating an optical microcavity containing a single quantum dot, the spontaneous emission rate into a single mode can be
enhanced. Using this method, we have seen 78% coupling of single-dot radiation into a single cavity resonance. The enhanced
spontaneous decay should also allow for higher photon pulse rates, up to about 3 GHz.

We use diffusion Monte Carlo to study the ground state, the low-lying excitation spectrum and the spin densities of circular
quantum dots with parabolic radial potentials containing N = 16 and N = 24 electrons, each having four open-shell electrons and compare the results to those obtained from Hartree-Fock (HF) and
density functional local spin density approximation (LSDA) calculations. We find that Hund's first rule is obeyed in both
cases and that neither HF nor LSDA correctly predict the ordering of the energy levels.

We consider non-equilibrium transport in disordered conductors. We calculate the interaction correction to the current for
a short wire connected to electron reservoirs by resistive interfaces. In the absence of charging effects we find a universal
current-voltage-characteristics. The relevance of our calculation for existing experiments is discussed as well as the connection
with alternative theoretical approaches.

Conductance properties in spin field-effect transistors (SFET) are
studied by taking into account the Rashba spin-orbit coupling strength, the presence of external magnetic field, the angle
between the direction of magnetization and the conductance band mismatch between the ferromagnetic contacts
and the channel. It is shown that the conductance of the SFET has high peaks while
the value of external magnetic field varies. These peaks become more and more pronounced
with the potential barriers strength increasing. The conductance peaks
also appear by increasing the strength of the spin-orbit coupling. It is found that the conductance exhibits quantum oscillating
behavior when varying the angle between the direction of magnetization in the two contacts. The influence of conductance band
mismatch between the contacts and channel
is also discussed. 相似文献

By measuring the light emitted from a quantum cascade laser placed in a high magnetic field, we have investigated the energy relaxation of 0D magnetically confined electrons in the active quantum wells of the structure. The experiment consists of injecting electrons by tunnelling into one upper subband level and monitoring a resonant interaction with optical phonons produced by Landau tuning of subband energy levels. For this purpose, the upper level lifetime is probed by measuring the laser intensity as a function of magnetic field, under constant current bias values. Both the laser intensity and the bias voltage oscillate periodically with the reciprocal of the field. In addition, at high magnetic fields, the current threshold goes through deep minima at antiresonance values. The lifetime is then deduced and analyzed using the strong electron–phonon coupling scheme which is typically applied to quantum dots. 相似文献

We present a theoretical study of the spin-dependent conductance
spectra in a FM/semiconductor quantum-dot (QD)/FM system. Both the
Rashba spin-orbit (SO) coupling in the QD and spin-flip scattering
caused by magnetic barrier impurities are taken into account. It
is found that in the single-level QD system with parallel magnetic
moments in the two FM leads, due to the interference between
different tunneling paths through the spin-degenerate level, a dip
or a narrow resonant peak can appear in the conductance spectra,
which depends on the property of the spin-flip scattering. When
the magnetizations of the two FM leads are noncollinear, the
resonant peak can be transformed into a dip. The Rashba SO
coupling manifests itself by a Rashba phase factor, which changes
the phase information of every tunneling path and can greatly
modulate the conductance. When the QD has multiple levels, the
Rashba interlevel spin-flip effect appears, which changes the
topological property of the structure. Its interplay with the
Rashba phase can directly tune the coupling strengths between dot
and leads, and can result in switching from resonance into
antiresonance in the conductance spectra. 相似文献

We investigate the effects of extension and overlap of wavefunctions on the dispersion relations of plasmon modes in symmetric double-quantum-well structures.We compare the approximate results in two-dimensional layer-gas (2DLG) model with the exact ones where the extension and overlap of the wavefunctions are included.Our numerical results show that the 2DLG model is a good approximation only in the wide barrier case in the long wavelength limit.When the barrier is thin,the extension and overlap of the wavefunctions cannot be neglected.We also show that the long wavelength gap of the inter-subband mode is proportional to the energy difference between the ground and the first excited energy levels. 相似文献

In the asymptotic limit, the interlayer exchange coupling decays as D-2, where D is the spacer thickness. A systematic procedure for calculating the preasymptotic corrections, i.e., the terms of order D-n with ,is presented. The temperature dependence of the preasymptotic corrections is calculated. The results are used to discuss
the preasymptotic corrections for the Co/Cu/Co(001) system.

We consider a two-terminal Aharonov-Bohm (AB) interferometer with a quantum dot inserted in one path of the AB ring.
We investigate the transport properties of this system in and out of the Kondo regime. We utilize perturbation theory to
calculate the electron self-energy of the quantum dot with respect to the intradot Coulomb interaction. We show the expression
of the Kondo temperature as a function of the AB phase together with its dependence on other characteristics such as the
linewidth of the ring and the finite Coulomb interaction and the energy levels of the quantum dot. The current oscillates
periodically as a function
of the AB phase. The amplitude of the current oscillation decreases with increasing Coulomb interaction. For a given temperature,
the electron transport through the AB interferometer
can be selected to be in or out of the Kondo regime by changing the magnetic flux threading perpendicular to the AB ring of
the system. 相似文献

We calculate analytically the conditions that establish the number of bound states in finite superlattices as a function of
the depth, width and separation of the wells. We consider a lattice of -wells and a set of rectangular wells. For this latter case, we show how for finite systems the energy levels already group
together in bands separated by gaps.
