Are there quantum jumps

David K. Ferry

Generally, one thinks of a “quantum jump” as the process in which an electron “jumps” between a pair of quantum states, even as the process is treated within perturbation theory. This jump of an electron has remained a key point of conservative (i.e., traditional) quantum mechanics. But, the question of the time dependence of such a transition, e.g. the time for an atom to be ionized by radiation, is somewhat different than this view. A detailed approach in which an incoming wave first polarizes the quantum states and then completes the transition has allowed for a detailed discussion of the smooth transition of the electron from one state to the next. Here, we will discuss the history of the process, and illustrate the approach with the question of “how long does it take for an electron to emit a phonon?” The entire process arises from the proper application of wave mechanics and obviates the need to even consider a discussion of quantum jumps.

Controlling charge and spin currents through nonreciprocal dissipative processes

Catalin-Mihai Halati, Jean-Sébastien Bernier

We investigate the generation and control of both charge and spin currents via nonreciprocal dissipative mechanisms in a two-dimensional spinful fermionic atom quantum system with broken inversion and time-reversal symmetries. Within the Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad master equation formalism and using an approach based on the time-dependent generalized Gibbs ensemble, we identify in the weak dissipative coupling regime the minimal set of nonreciprocal jump operators required to induce charge and spin currents and to control both their direction and magnitude. We find that in the presence of finite tunneling, Rashba coupling and magnetic field, the combine application of two jump operators nonreciprocally coupling each spin species to a different spatial direction of motion is sufficient to generate both types of current. Furthermore, by tuning the degree of nonreciprocity of the jump operators we modify the dominant transport mechanism from spin to charge. Finally, we checked that this nonreciprocal current generation mechanism is robust to the application of dephasing noise as even in the presence of this additional dissipative process the steady-state occupation distributions for the quasiparticle modes of the Hamiltonian remains non-trivial, an essential requirement to obtain non-zero currents.
