Abstract: | A single particle magneto-confined in a one-dimensional (1D) quantum
wire experiences a harmonic potential, and imposing a sharply
focused laser beam on an appropriate site shapes a $\delta$
potential. The theoretical investigation has demonstrated that for a
sufficiently strong $\delta$ pulse the quantum motional stationary
state of the particle is one of the eigenstates of the free harmonic
oscillator, and it is determined by the site of the laser beam
uniquely, namely a quantum state is admissible if and only if the
laser site is one of its nodes. The numerical computation shows that
all the nodes of the lower energy states with quantum numbers $n \le
20$, except the coordinate origin, are mutually different. So we can
manipulate the multiphoton transitions between the quantum states by
adjusting the position of the laser $\delta$ pulse and realize the
transition from an unknown higher excitation state to a required
lower energy state. |
