TIME-DEPENDENT EVOLUTION OF A WAVE PACKET IN QUANTUM SYSTEMS

Chi‐Shung Tang, Pi‐Gang Luan

We consider wave packet propagation in mesoscopic quantum systems. A number of approaches are compared to look at the general solution of a time-dependent Schrödinger equation and the validity of the Ehrenfest theorem. Detailed calculations are presented to illustrate the results of a charged particle motion in the time-dependent systems, and show that the Ehrenfest theorem is not directly applicable in topologically nontrivial systems.

Fractal Dimensions in Tunneling Processes and Effects of Environmental Fluctuations

Vassilios I. Kovanis, Paolo Grigolini A, V. M. Kenkre +1 more

We study electron tunneling between two infinte potential square wells connected via an opaque barrier and find that time evolution of the probability of the presence of a Gaussian wave packet, localized initially in one of the wells, shares the fractal behavior of tunneling in a quartic potential, discovered by Dekker (H. Dekker, Phys. Rev.A35, 1825 (1987). However, the fractal dimensions are found to be closer to those of a conventional Weierstrass function than those appropriate to the quasi-Weierstrass behavior of Dekker. It is argued that the usual exponential decay predicted by conventional relaxation processes can be recovered only as an effect of thermal fluctuations.
