Abstract

A nonlinear oscillator with variable mass is studied in the approach of Supersymmetric quantum mechanics. Ladder operators in association with the shape invariance condition allowed us to find the coherent states of the system in the sense of Barut and Girardello. The statistical properties of these particular states are studied using the probability of distribution. In addition, the vibrational partition function is calculated. We see that the thermodynamic functions of the system such as mean energy and entropy depend on the nonlinearity parameter, except for the specific heat.

Barut–Girardello Coherent States for Nonlinear Oscillator with Position-Dependent Mass

Naila, Amir, Shahid +1 more

Using ladder operators for the non-linear oscillator with position-dependent effective mass, realization of the dynamic group SU(1,1) is presented. Keeping in view the algebraic structure of the non-linear oscillator, coherent states are constructed using Barut–Girardello formalism and their basic properties are discussed. Furthermore, the statistical properties of these states are investigated by means of Mandel parameter and second order correlation function. Moreover,it is shown that in the harmonic limit, all the results obtained for the non-linear oscillator with spatially varying mass reduce to corresponding results of the linear oscillator with constant mass.

Supersymmetric quantum mechanics and coherent states for a deformed oscillator with position-dependent effective mass

Bruno G. da Costa, Genilson A. C. da Silva, Ignacio S. Gomez

We study the classical and quantum oscillator in the context of a non-additive (deformed) displacement operator associated with a position-dependent effective mass by means of the supersymmetric formalism. From the supersymmetric partner Hamiltonians and the shape invariance technique, we obtain the eigenstates and the eigenvalues along with the ladders operators, thus showing a preservation of the supersymmetric structure in terms of the deformed counterpartners. The deformed space in supersymmetry allows to characterize position-dependent effective mass and uniform field interactions and to obtain a generalized uncertainty relation (GUP) that behaves as a distinguishability measure for the coherent states, these latter satisfying a periodic evolution for the corrections of the GUP.

Generalized Coherent States for Position-Dependent Effective Mass Systems

Naila Amir, Shahid Iqbal

Abstract A generalized scheme for the construction of coherent states in the context of position-dependent effective mass systems has been presented. This formalism is based on the ladder operators and associated algebra of the system which are obtained using the concepts of supersymmetric quantum mechanics and the property of shape invariance. In order to exemplify the general results and to analyze the properties of the coherent states, several examples have been considered.

Generalised two-dimensional nonlinear oscillator with a position-dependent effective mass and the thermodynamic properties

S. E. Bokpe, F. A. Dossa, Gabriel Y. H. Avossevou

We investigate a two-dimensional nonlinear oscillator with a position-dependent effective mass in the framework of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. Using the Nikiforov-Uvarov method, we obtain exact analytical expressions for the energy spectrum and wave functions. Based on the canonical partition function, we derive key thermodynamic quantities, including internal energy, specific heat, free energy, and entropy. Our results show that, unlike the one-dimensional case, where the specific heat is unaffected by the nonlinearity parameter k, the two-dimensional system exhibits a strong k−dependence. At high temperatures, the specific heat becomes temperature-independent for fixed values of k, in line with the Dulong–Petit law. However, these behaviors occur only for negative values of k. These findings highlight the impact of effective mass nonlinearity on macroscopic thermodynamic quantities and suggest that tuning the parameter k could serve as an effective strategy for enhancing the performance of quantum devices, including thermal machines and optoelectronic components.

In this paper, we introduce the generalized coherent states and Photon-added coherent states in the sence of Barut-Girardello for the nonlinear harmonic oscillator with position dependent effective mass.The study of the resolution of the unity as the fundamental property of coherent states, is done in Meijer Gfunction.Also, the non-classical features of these two states are calculated and analyized by using the probability distribution function and Mandel parameter.
