THE PERSISTENT CURRENT ON A DRIVEN MESOSCOPIC RLC CIRCUIT

Hassan Pahlavani

Published Jun 29, 2011• 6 citations
Publisher

Abstract

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.

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.

Minimal Coupling Approach to Quantum RLC Circuits

Hassan Pahlavani, Fardin Kheirandish

We consider a resistance element (R) as an environment of an LC circuit, which is treated as the main system modeled by a Hamiltonian containing an oscillator with a continuous range of frequencies. Using a minimal coupling method which is appropriate for dissipative quantum systems, we investigate the quantum dynamics of this system. The Heisenberg equation for such a dissipative system contains a dissipative term proportional to Ohmic damping. Some transition probabilities indicating the way energy flows between the subsystems are obtained.

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.

Comment on "quantum theory for mesosocopic electric circuits". Cond-mat/9907171 and cond-mat/9606206

Juan Cesar Flores

In references cond-mat/9907171 and cond-mat/9606206 (Phys.Rev.B.53, 4927 (1996)) by You-Quan Li and Bin Chen, was considered a mesoscopic LC circuit with charge discreteness. So, it was proposed a finite difference Schroedinger equation for the charge time behavior. In this comment, we generalize the corresponding mesoscopic Hamiltonian in order to taken into account the dissipative effects (resistance R). Namely, a quantum term RI, proportional to the current, is added to the mesoscopic LC circuit equation. This is carried-out in analogy with the theory of Caldirola-Kanai for quantum one particle damping.

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.
