Coherent destruction of tunnelling in a symmetrical double well driven by a series of time dependent δ functions

Dipayan Seal, Pinaki Chaudhury, Subhasree Ghosh

Abstract It is analytically and numerically shown that the coherent tunnelling between the individual wells of a symmetrical double well potential can be totally suppressed when it is driven by a periodic series of δ function in time, depending on the time period and strength of the δ function. We have applied time dependent perturbation theory to have an understanding over the process. In absence of any kind of perturbation, the average position of the particle makes a sinusoidal oscillation between two wells. With the application of a periodic δ function, the amplitude and the frequency of the oscillation both get modified. In this article we have explored how the frequency and strength of the applied perturbation controls the quantum dynamics of tunnelling and finally, how these parameters drive the system towards a complete stand still situation, which is described as coherent destruction of tunnelling.

Tunneling control using classical non-linear oscillator

Susmita Kar, Shankar Prasad Bhattacharyya

A quantum particle is placed in symmetric double well potential which is coupled to a classical non-linear oscillator via a coupling function. With different spatial symmetry of the coupling and under various controlling fashions, the tunneling of the quantum particle can be enhanced or suppressed, or totally destroyed.
