Abstract

Noticing that the angular momentum operator L z commutes with the square of radius operator, R 2 , of the orbit track of an electron in a uniform magnetic field, we reveal that a new entanglement is inherent to the common eigenvector of the operators L z and R 2 .

MINIMUM UNCERTAINTY STATES FOR ANGULAR-MOMENTUM–PHASE UNCERTAINTY RELATION IN RADIUS–PHASE DESCRIPTION OF AN ELECTRON IN UNIFORM MAGNETIC FIELD

Hong-Yi Fan

Based on the |λ> representation and the radius–phase description of an electron's orbit track in a uniform magnetic field, we introduce the phase operator and derive the minimum uncertainty states for the angular-momentum–phase uncertainty relation. The derivation makes full use of the newly constructed |l, r> representation which is the common eigenvector of the angular momentum Lz and the radius operator (K- - iΠ+)(K+ + iΠ-).

Angular Momentum-Phase Coherent State for an Electron in Uniform Magnetic Field

Fan Hong-Yi, Fan Yue

Based on the newly constructed state | l , r ⟩⟩ [Fan et al. , Chin. Phys. Lett. 16(1999)706], where l is the angular momentum quantum number and r denotes the electron's orbit radius in a uniform magnetic field, we propose a new angular momentum-phase coherent state by introducing a new operator A . A and A † are annihilation and creation operators in the | l , r ⟩⟩ space, respectively. The coherent state is A 's eigenket and possesses non-orthonormal and overcomplete properties. It is constructed on the certain superposition of zero-angular momentum states along the radius direction.

NEW REPRESENTATION FOR DESCRIBING LOWERING AND ASCENDING OF AN ELECTRON'S ANGULAR MOMENTUM IN A UNIFORM MAGNETIC FIELD

Hong-Yi Fan, H. ZOU, Yue Fan

We construct a new quantum mechanical representation |l,r> for describing an electron's angular momentum in a uniform magnetic field, where l is the eigenvalue of the azimuthal angular momentum Lz and r is the orbit radius of the electron's motion. The ascending and lowering operators for |l,r>→|l± 1,r> are also obtained. Throughout our discussion the <λ| representation is fully employed (see Hong-Yi Fan and Yong Ren, Mod. Phys. Lett.B10, 523 (1996).

Angular Momentum Conserved Coherent State for an Electron in a Uniform Magnetic Field

Hong-Yi Fan, Hui Zou, Yue Fan

For an electron in the uniform magnetic field, we construct the angular momentum conserved coherent state || r 2 , l ⟩, based on which we establish a new complete and orthonormal ⟨⟨ l,r | representation, where l represents the angular momentum and r the electron's orbit radius. Squeezing of the state | l,r ⟩⟩ is examined.
