Abstract

We construct a deformed oscillator whose energy spectra is similar to that of a Morse potential. We obtain a convenient algebraic representation of the displacement and the momentum of a Morse oscillator by expanding them in terms of deformed creation and annihilation operators and we compute their average values between approximate coherent states of the deformed oscillator, and we compare them to the results obtained using the exact Morse coordinate and momenta. Finally we evaluate the temporal evolution of the dispersion (Δx)(Δp) and show that these states are not minimum uncertainty states.

A simple algebraic approach to coherent states for the Morse oscillator

Ian L. Cooper

Minimum uncertainty coherent states and annihilation operator coherent states for the Morse oscillator are derived and shown to be equivalent. They reduce, in the limit of small anharmonicity constant, or, equivalently, in the limit of large well depth, to the approximate coherent states derived previously from the use of generalized displacement operator.

Morse-like squeezed coherent states and some of their properties

O de los Santos-Sánchez, J. Récamier

Using the f-deformed oscillator formalism, we introduce a class of squeezed coherent states for a Morse potential system (Morse-like squeezed coherent states) defined as approximate eigenstates of a linear combination of f-deformed ladder operators. For the states thus constructed, we analyze their statistical properties, their uncertainty relations, their Wigner function and their temporal evolution on phase space.

Coherent states for anharmonic diatomic molecules

J. Récamier, P. García de León, Rocío Jáuregui +2 more

Abstract In this work, we construct approximate coherent states for a Morse‐like potential using the displacement operator method and a method recently proposed by Gazeau and Klauder. To test if these states are minimum uncertainty states, we evaluate the temporal evolution of the dispersions in position and momentum. We also construct the trajectories in the phase space and compare with the classic solution. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2002

Exact solution and coherent states of an asymmetric oscillator with position-dependent mass

Bruno G. da Costa, Ignacio S. Gomez, Biswanath Rath

We revisit the problem of the deformed oscillator with position-dependent mass [da Costa et al., J. Math. Phys. 62, 092101 (2021)] in the classical and quantum formalisms by introducing the effect of the mass function in both kinetic and potential energies. The resulting Hamiltonian is mapped into a Morse oscillator by means of a point canonical transformation from the usual phase space (x, p) to a deformed one (xγ, Πγ). Similar to the Morse potential, the deformed oscillator presents bound trajectories in phase space corresponding to an anharmonic oscillatory motion in classical formalism and, therefore, bound states with a discrete spectrum in quantum formalism. On the other hand, open trajectories in phase space are associated with scattering states and continuous energy spectrum. Employing the factorization method, we investigate the properties of the coherent states, such as the time evolution and their uncertainties. A fast localization, classical and quantum, is reported for the coherent states due to the asymmetrical position-dependent mass. An oscillation of the time evolution of the uncertainty relationship is also observed, whose amplitude increases as the deformation increases.

Energy transfer to an anharmonic diatomic system

J. Récamier, Wolf Luis Mochán

We model an anharmonic diatomic molecule using deformed creation and annihilation operators such that the energy spectrum generated by a Hamiltonian of the harmonic oscillator's form written in terms of deformed operators is similar to that of a Morse potential. We construct an approximate time evolution operator and evaluate transition probabilities which are compared with those obtained by an expansion in a basis of Morse eigenfunctions. The algebraic results compare favorably with the numerical results.

Nonlinear response of a deformed oscillator

J. Récamier, Wolf Luis Mochán, Jesús A. Maytorena

Abstract We analyze the response of a single anharmonic diatomic molecule to a monochromatic time dependent electric field ω(t) and evaluate the temporal evolution of the dipole moment, phase space trajectories, and several transition probabilities as a function of the intensity of the field. We define deformed boson operators A† = f( )a†, A = af( ) in terms of the usual harmonic oscillator creation and annihilation operators a, a†, = a†a and choose the number operator function f( ) such that the energy spectrum of a harmonic oscillator‐type Hamiltonian written in terms of the deformed operators yields an energy spectrum similar to that of a Morse potential. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
