Decoherence of quantum tunneling by coherent phonon modes in symmetric double‐well system

Abstract

We investigate effect of the decoherence in quantum tunneling in one-dimensional symmetric double-well potential with coherent or stochastic perturbation. A coupling with some vibrational modes can cause the decoherence in the wavepacket dynamics. Furthermore, we discuss the controllability of the quantum tunneling by external field based on optimal control theory. (© 2004 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

TWO-PHONON COHERENT STATES IN A DISSIPATIVE QUANTUM TUNNELING SYSTEM

Y Hang

In this paper, a two-phonon coherent state has been introduced to investigate the influence of coupling with a quantum tunneling system on phonon states. Comparing with usual one-phonon coherent state, this new phonon slate has the following properties: (1) Its energy is renormalized by the quantum tunneling system; (2) Its suppression effect on the renormalized tunneling parameter is reduced; (3) It makes the whole system in a more stable ground state.

Coherent pseudo‐spin resonance in a laterally coupled double quantum dot

Toshihiro Kubo, 康弘 都倉, Seigo Tarucha

Abstract In a laterally coupled double quantum dot (DQD), we can refer to the tunnel‐coupled symmetric (antisymmetric) state as the pseudo‐spin up (down) state. We study the coherent pseudo‐spin dynamics in a laterally coupled DQD. We propose the blockade phenomena induced by quantum interference effect through the pseudo‐spin states. Under such a blockade condition, we calculate the leakage current due to the coherent pseudospin dynamics driven by time‐varying microwave (MW) fields. When the resonant condition is satisfied, the current has a peak (right figure). Moreover, we examine the effect of the photon‐assisted‐tunneling (PAT) on pseudospin dynamics. We show that the PAT does not significantly influence the leakage current under above blockade condition. The frequency and the inter‐dot tunnel coupling dependence of the leakage current.

Decoherence and quantum entangled exciton states in semiconductor quantum dot molecule

A. Hichri, S. Jaziri, R. Ferreira

Recently a pair of vertically aligned quantum dots has been suggested as optically driven quantum gate. The later is built when two different particles, an electron and a hole, are created optically. The two particles form entangled states. We study theoretically the dynamics of a single heavy hole exciton confined in a small vertically coupled quantum dot. We use harmonic potentials to model the confining of electrons and holes and calculate the exciton's energy spectrum using the Hund-Mulliken approach, and including the Coulomb interaction. The entanglement may be controlled by the application of external electric field. At certain times of dynamical evolution one can generate a maximally entangled coherent exciton state by initially preparing the quantum dots in a superposition of coherent state. In ideal situations, entangled quantum states would not decohere during processing and transmission of quantum information. However, a real quantum system is inevitably influenced by its environment. Since, we study the decoherence effect caused by the interaction of the confined carriers with the acoustic phonon effects. (© 2004 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Quantum tunneling in a periodically driven double well system: Entangled trajectory molecular dynamics method

Feng Xu

We study a wavepacket tunneling in one-dimensional periodically driven double-well system using entangled trajectory molecular dynamics method. The tunneling dynamics dependents on the amplitude and frequency of the driven force are present. Both resonant and nonresonant tunneling process are enhanced by the driven force when the system is chaotic under classical dynamics. We give entangled trajectory in phase space compared to corresponding classical trajectory with same initial state to visually show quantum tunneling process. The average values of quantum tunneling probability after long time evolution have been shown in the parameter spaces, the effect of resonance and chaos on the tunneling dynamics are present. The relation between chaos and the uncertainly product is discussed in the end. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Phonon‐induced disentanglement of confined excitons

Katarzyna Roszak, Paweł Machnikowski, Lucjan Jacak

Abstract We show that phonon‐induced pure dephasing of excitons in quantum dots, which leads only to partial decay of system coherence, may completely erase entanglement between two excitons. We also discuss the role of the distance between the subsystems for this disentanglement process. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Decoherence and localization in tunneling process under influence of one external degree of freedom

Quanlin Jie, Bambi Hu, Guangjong Dong

We investigate numerically the tunneling effect under influence of another particle in a double well system. Such influence from only one degree of freedom makes decoherence and quantum-classical transition, i.e., suppression of the tunneling effect. The decoherence happens even for cases that the influence is from a particle of very small mass, and it has virtually no effect in the corresponding classical dynamics. There are cases similar to dynamical localization that the suppressed tunneling rate is several times smaller than the classical counterpart. This result is relevant for understanding quantitatively the dynamical process of decoherence and quantum to classical transition.
