Calculation of geometrical birefringence from two-dimensional refractive-index profile in single-mode fibres

We present two numerical approaches to calculate the geometrical birefringence from two-dimenslonal refractive-index profile in single-mode fibres. One is the improved perturbation model theory, the other is based on the general solution of noncircular uniform optical waveguide in an arbitrary coordinate system. Using these methods, we can obtain not only the magnitude of geometrical birefringence, but also the orientation of birefrlngent axes. We report the calculation results of geometrical birefringence in a real single-mode fibre.

Equilibrium States in the Quadruple–Kerr Solution

The extended quadruple–Kerr metric is used to consider equilibrium states of four collinear Kerr particles. We explain our previous failure to solve numerically the full set of the balance equations, and we derive a self–consistent system of the axis conditions leading to the equilibrium of all four constituents which can be black holes or hyperextreme objects. The equilibrium configurations obtained in this paper exhibit similar features with those occurring in the systems of two Kerr particles, for instance, the balance of four Kerr black holes with positive masses does not seem possible. Equilibrium states of two identical compound Kerr objects are also discussed.     

Eigenvalue Spectrum of a Dirac Particle in Static and Spherical Complex Potential

It has been observed that a quantum theory need not be Hermitian to have a real spectrum. We study the non-Hermitian relativistic quantum theories for many complex potentials, and obtain the real relativistic energy eigenvalues and corresponding eigenfunctions of a Dirac-charged particle in complex statically and spherically symmetric potentials. Complex Dirac–Eckart, complex Dirac–Rosen–Morse II, complex Dirac–Scarf and complex Dirac–Poschl–Teller potential are investigated.     

Intermolecular Vibrational Relaxation in Mixtures of Excited Benzophenone and Anthraquinone Molecules with Water Vapor

The intermolecular vibrational energy transfer from triplet molecules of benzophenone and anthraquinone to H₂O molecules has been investigated. To determine the rates of establishment of vibrational (V-V) and thermal (V-T) equilibrium in a vibrational quasi-continuum of mixed singlet-triplet levels, the dependences of the decay rates and intensities of the fast and slow components of delayed fluorescence on the H₂O vapor pressure have been investigated. For V-V relaxation, the efficiencies ₁ and the mean energies E transferred per collision in mixtures with H₂O and other polyatomic foreign gases have been compared. It has been established that the efficiencies ₁ for quasi-resonant vibrational energy transfer (V-V) from benzophenone and anthraquinone to H₂O are an order of magnitude lower than the gas-kinetic ones and lower than those obtained under the same experimental conditions for such foreign gases as C₅H₁₂, SF₆, and CCl₄, and decrease with increasing temperature in the 433–513 K range. It has been concluded that the mechanism of V-V relaxation in mixtures with H₂O are determined by long-range attractive forces. In mixtures with H₂O, no acceleration of V-T relaxation due to the formation of hydrogen bonds has been revealed. The low-efficiency thermalization process (V-T relaxation) is controlled by short-range repulsive forces, and the differences between the intensities ₂ for mixtures of benzophenone and anthraquinone with H₂O and other polyatomic gases are determined by the change in the reduced mass of interacting molecules.     

Strongly confined quantum wire states in strained T-shaped GaAs/InAlAs structures

The confinement energy of T-shaped quantum wires (QWRs), which were fabricated by the cleaved edge overgrowth technique in a way that the QWRs form at the intersection of In_0.2Al_0.8As stressor layers and the overgrown (1 1 0) GaAs quantum well (QW), is examined using micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy. Photoluminescence (PL) signals from individual QWRs can be spatially resolved, since the strained films are separated by 1 μm wide Al_0.3Ga_0.7As layers. We find that due to the tensile strain being transmitted to the QW, the confinement energy of the QWRs rises systematically up to 40 meV with increasing thickness of the stressor layers. By reducing the excitation power to 0.1 μW the QWR PL emission occurs 48 meV redshifted with respect to the QW. All QWR peaks exhibit smooth lineshapes, indicating the absence of pronounced exciton localization.     

Effect of external Gaussian random field on phonon spectrum of linear atomic chains

We present the theoretical study of the effect of external random field characterized by a Gaussian probability distribution function on the continuous phonon spectrum of one-dimensional (1D) chain, based on the Jacobian matrix method. The cumulative effect of the random field and simple isotopic defect is studied analytically and numerically. The Gaussian random field removes a square-root divergence appearing in the phonon spectrum of ideal 1D chain. The impurity phonon DOS shows strong dependence on the variance and the mean of the random field and exhibits very different behavior from the non-random case: the continuous spectrum is expanded and the δ-peak, describing discrete impurity vibrations in the non-random chain with the impurity, falls into a continuous zone.     

Elastic Scattering of Ultracold ^133Cs and SSRb Atoms in Triplet State

Elastic scattering properties of the ultracold interaction for the triplet state of ^133Cs and ^85Rb atoms are studied using two kinds of potentials by the same phase Ф. One is the interpolation potential, and another is Lennard-Jones potential （LJl2,6 ）. The radial Schrodtinger equation is also solved using two computational methods, the semiclassical method （WKB）, and the Numerov method. Our results are found to be in an excellent agreement with the more recent theoretical values. It shows that the two potentials and methods are applicable for studying ultracold collisions between the mixing alkali atoms.     

Ground-state entanglement in a three-spin transverse Ising model with energy current

The ground-state entanglement associated with a three-spin transverse Ising model is studied. By introducing an energy current into the system, a quantum phase transition to energy-current phase may be presented with the variation of external magnetic field; and the ground-state entanglement varies suddenly at the critical point of quantum phase transition. In our model, the introduction of energy current makes the entanglement between any two qubits become maximally robust.     

Studies on heteronuclear diatomic molecular dissociation energies using algebraic energy method

The algebraic energy method (AEM) is applied to the study of molecular dissociation energy $D_e$ for 11 heteronuclear diatomic electronic states: $a^3\Sigma^+$ state of NaK, $X^2\Sigma^+$ state of XeBr, $X^2\Sigma^+$ state of HgI, $X^1\Sigma^+$ state of LiH, $A^3\Pi(1)$ state of ICl, $X^1\Sigma^+$ state of CsH, $A(^3\Pi_1)$ and $B0^+(^3\Pi)$ states of ClF, $2^1\Pi$ state of KRb, $X^1\Sigma^+$ state of CO, and $c^3\Sigma^+$ state of NaK molecule. The results show that the values of $D_e$ computed by using the AEM are satisfactorily accurate compared with experimental ones. The AEM can serve as an economic and useful tool to generate a reliable $D_e$ within an allowed experimental error for the electronic states whose molecular dissociation energies are unavailable from the existing literature.
