Published Jan 9, 2008• 5 citations
Publisher

Abstract

The quantum theory for a mesoscopic electric circuit with charge discreteness is investigated. The persistent current on a quantum ring using an algebraic approach have been obtained. The energy spectrum and the persistent current of a quantum LC-design mesoscopic circuit, with a time-dependent external source, have been found.

THE PERSISTENT CURRENT ON A DRIVEN MESOSCOPIC RLC CIRCUIT

Hassan Pahlavani

The quantum theory for mesoscopic electric LC circuits with charge discreteness is briefly described. We take into account a resistance element (R) as an environment of the discrete-charge mesoscopic quantum LC circuit which is modeled by a Hamiltonian consisting of oscillators with continuous range of frequencies. Using a minimal coupling method, we investigate the quantum dynamics of this system. Hereby, the persistent current on a quantum damped L-design under the external potential source is obtained. Then, we write Heisenberg equations for a driven mesoscopic quantum RLC circuit with a dissipative term proportional to Ohmic damping and obtain persistent current on such a mesoscopic electric circuit.

Dissipative in quantum mesoscopic RLC circuits

Hassan Pahlavani, Razmjou Arash

The quantum theory for a mesoscopic electric circuit with charge discreteness is investigated. Taking the Caldirola-Kanai Hamiltonian in studding quantum mechanics of dissipative systems, we obtain the persistent current and the energy spectrum of a damped quantum LC-design mesoscopic circuit under the influence of a time-dependent external field.

Quantum Theory for Mesoscopic Electric Circuits and Its Applications

You‐Quan Li, Bin Chen

This talk is assumed to exhibit an overview of the quantum theory for mesoscopic electric circuits and some of its further developments. In the theory the importance of the discreteness of electronic charge in mesoscopic electric circuit is addressed. The mesoscopic LC-design is quantized in accord with the charge discreteness. The uncertainty relation for electric charge and current is given. Because the stationary Schrödinger equation is turned to be Mathieu equation in $p$-representation, the wave function and energy spectrum is formally solved. As further applications, the persistent current is obtained by considering the mesoscopic ring as a pure L-design. The Coulomb blockade phenomenon occurs when applying the theory to the pure C-design. Concerning the time evolution of the states for mesoscopic electric circuit, we are able to study it by the method of characteristics. In order to study the dissipative effect in the circuit, we use density-matrix formulation. In this formulation, several type of ``off diagonal'' dissipations are expected to be discussed.

Quantum theory for mesoscopic electric circuits

You‐Quan Li, Bin Chen

A quantum theory for mesoscopic electric circuits in accord with the discreteness of electric charges is proposed. On the basis of the theory, the Schr\"odinger equation for the quantum LC design and L design is solved exactly. The uncertainty relation for electric charge and current is obtained and a minimum uncertainty state is solved. By introducing a gauge field, a formula for persistent current arising from magnetic flux is obtained. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

Josephson junction in the quantum mesoscopic electric circuits with charge discreteness

Hassan Pahlavani

A quantum mesoscopic electrical LC-circuit with charge discreteness including a Josephson junction is considered and a nonlinear Hamiltonian that describing the dynamic of such circuit is introduced. The quantum dynamical behavior (persistent current probability) is studied in the charge and phase regimes by numerical solution approaches. The time evolution of charge and current, number-difference and the bosonic phase and also the energy spectrum of a quantum mesoscopic electric LC-circuit with charge discreteness that coupled with a Josephson junction device are investigated. We show the role of the coupling energy and the electrostatic Coulomb energy of the Josephson junction in description of the quantum behavior and the spectral properties of a quantum mesoscopic electrical LC-circuits with charge discreteness.

Mesoscopic quantum circuit theory to the persistent current and Coulomb blockade

You‐Quan Li

The quantum theory for mesoscopic electric circuit is briefly described. The uncertainty relation for electric charge and current modifies the tranditional Heisenberg uncertainty relation. The mesoscopic ring is regarded as a pure L-design, and the persistent current is obtained explicitly. The Coulomb blockade phenomenon appears when applying to the pure C-design.
