Electron-spin filter and polarizer in a standing light wave

Sven Ahrens

We demonstrate the theoretical feasibility of spin-dependent diffraction and spin polarization of an electron in two counterpropagating, circularly polarized laser beams. The spin dynamics appears in a two-photon process of the Kapitza-Dirac effect in the Bragg regime. We show the spin dependence of the diffraction process by comparison of the time evolution of spin-up and spin-down electrons in a relativistic quantum simulation. We further discuss the spin properties of the scattering by studying an analytically approximated solution of the time-evolution matrix. A classification scheme in terms of unitary or nonunitary propagation matrices is used for establishing a generalized and spin-independent description of the spin properties in the diffraction process.

Nanowelding of quantum spin- 1 2 chains at minimal dissipation

Moallison F. Cavalcante, Marcus V. S. Bonança, E. Miranda +1 more

Nonequilibrium phenomena are commonly expected to be nonuniversal, i.e., they depend intricately on the system and processes. Here, the authors show that nevertheless some universal features do persist. They consider the energetic cost of finite-time nano-welding of quantum spin-\textonehalf{} chains. They find that some features depend only on (i) the process speed, (ii) the system's symmetry, and (iii) the existence of an energy gap. Depending on the strength of SU(2) symmetry breaking, there are striking universalities in (a) the scaling of the cost with the duration time for slowly-varying processes and (b) the functional form of the cost-optimal protocol.

Modeling two-spin dynamics in a noisy environment

Matthew J. Testolin, Jared H. Cole, Lloyd C. L. Hollenberg

We describe how the effect of charge noise on a pair of spins coupled via the exchange interaction can be calculated by modeling charge fluctuations as a random telegraph noise process using probability density functions. We develop analytic expressions for the time-dependent superoperator of a pair of spins as a function of fluctuation amplitude and rate. We show that the theory can be extended to include multiple fluctuators, in particular, spectral distributions of fluctuators. These superoperators can be included in time-dependent analyses of the state of spin systems designed for spintronics or quantum information processing to determine the decohering effects of exchange fluctuations.
