Invariant multipole theory of induced macroscopic fields in homogenous dielectrics.Welter, Allard. January 2013 (has links)
A harmonic plane electromagnetic wave incident on a molecule distorts its charge distribution, thereby
producing an infinite series of induced multipole moments expressed in terms of contributions that
are due to the electric and magnetic fields E and B, and their space and time derivatives. For a linear
dependence of an induced moment on a particular field property, as treated in this thesis, the constant
of proportionality is essentially the corresponding molecular polarizability. Each polarizability is of
a definite multipole order (electric dipole, electric quadrupole–magnetic dipole, electric octopole–
magnetic quadrupole, etc.). The contribution of each multipole term to a physical property diminishes
rapidly with increasing multipole order. In general, the moments and polarizabilities are dependent
on an arbitrary choice of molecular coordinate origin, relative to which the positions of molecular
constituents are referred.
Electromagnetic observables are expressible, in part, in terms of contributions of the polarizabilities
of the same multipole order. The aim of multipole theory is to explain effects to the lowest
relevant multipole order, since higher-order contributions are negligible. A necessary criterion for
such a theory is that it be independent of the choice of molecular coordinate origin. Van Vleck [1]
introduced this condition, and Buckingham [2] and others [3, 4] have used it as a standard test of the
theory.
The macroscopic continuum theory of electromagnetics, as embodied in Maxwell’s macroscopic
equations, involves molecular properties and electromagnetic fields averaged over a sampling volume
of dimensions much smaller than the wavelength of the fields and much larger than molecular
dimensions [5]. This averaging entails specifying a set of molecular coordinate origins.
The multipole expressions for the macroscopic induced bound charge and current densities and the
propagation equation are origin independent in part due to cancellation of their origin dependences
among terms of the same multipole order — the so-called Van Vleck–Buckingham condition [6].
The multipole expressions for the dynamic response fields, D(E,B) and H(E,B), above electric
dipole order depend on origin, and thus the theory is only partially invariant. To obtain a consistent
invariant multipole theory of induced macroscopic fields up to electric octopole–magnetic quadrupole
order, origin-independent expressions corresponding to the molecular polarizabilities are determined.
When used in place of the molecular polarizabilities, these invariant expressions leave the originindependent
aspects of the theory unchanged, and yield physically acceptable expressions for the
macroscopic fields. The resulting theory is fully invariant for both transmission and reflection.
The procedure to determine invariant polarizabilities requires manipulations of expressions involving
Cartesian tensors up to rank four, contracted with isotropic tensors up to rank eight, at electric
octopole–magnetic quadrupole order. The algebraic software package mathematica was used to
facilitate the evaluation of these expressions. / Thesis (Ph.D.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2013.

The Geonium Chip : engineering a scalable planar Penning trapPinder, Jonathan January 2017 (has links)
In this thesis is presented the realisation of 'The Geonium Chip', a novel planar Penning trap. The chip is designed with the goal of building a truly scalable planar Penning trap, while retaining the accuracy of 3D traps. Manufactured with conventional metalon- silicon microfabrication techniques, the chip takes the 5 electrodes of the compensated cylindrical trap and projects them onto a ground-plane surface, thus forming the basis for its layout by reducing the electrode shape to an array of at rectangular surfaces. In this thesis I describe the conception, design and construction of a full cryogenic set-up, including the magnetics, for trapping and observing a single electron in the Geonium Chip Penning trap. The cyclotron mode of the trapped electron lies in the microwave regime, and thus the Geonium Chip has the potential to become a powerful building block for quantum microwave circuits, with coherent coupling to the cyclotron degree of freedom. This will also allow non-destructive measurement and interaction with the spin state of the electron. The development of the experimental process is detailed from scratch including the design, fabrication, and testing of the Geonium Chip, as well as the design, fabrication and testing of the experimental apparatus. The original solutions and space saving designs developed as part of the construction process are detailed, such as the custom on-chip cryogenic vacuum chamber, planar magnetic field source, and the LED-based electron loading system. The vacuum chamber and control systems are also described, and the in-house manufacturing capabilities of the Geonium group are detailed at length, with an emphasis on rapid prototyping high-accuracy components suitable for experimental use. The apparatus built within this PhD is within a few weeks of performing the first loading of electrons into the chip trap.

Quantum electrodynamic shifts of mass and magnetic moment near dielectric or conducting surfacesBennett, Robert January 2013 (has links)
Quantum electrodynamics is the spectacularly successful theory of the interaction of light and matter. Its consequences are well-understood, and have been experimentally verified to extreme precision. What is not generally known is how these predictions change when the theory is considered in anything other than free space - near a surface, for example. A material boundary causes vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field to be different from their counterparts in free space, causing the electromagnetic environment of a microscopic system sitting near the boundary to differ from that if the surface were not present. This causes a variety of surface-dependent shifts in the properties of the microscopic system - this work investigates these shifts for a free electron. First using explicit normal mode expansion and analytic continuation of the wave-vector in the complex plane, and then using a semi-phenomenological `noise current' approach, the work presents derivations of formulae for the shifts in the mass and magnetic moment of an electron near a dispersive and absorbing surface. The formalism is also extended to the case where the electron is subject to a harmonic potential. It is noted that results for different models of the surface do not agree in the expected limiting cases due to their differing behaviour at low frequency, which leads to the conclusion that one must be very careful to use an appropriate model of a particular surface when considering quantum electrodynamic surface effects. Analysis of the results shows that use of a realistic model of the surface can make these shifts orders of magnitude larger than previous calculations had suggested, since they all relied on the somewhat unrealistic assumption that the surface is perfectly reflecting. This is shown to be particularly relevant to experiments which aim to measure the anomalous magnetic moment of an electron.

Optimisation of the coupling of ion strings to an optical cavityBegley, Stephen Patrick January 2016 (has links)
In this work, I detail the reconstruction and upgrades performed on the axial cavity ion trap in the ITCM group at the university of Sussex, and the measurement of the coupling of multiple ions to the cavity mode. This enables the optimal coupling between the ions and the cavity by adjusting the ions position in the radial and axial positions. This covers new ground in extending the optimal coupling beyond two ions which is of great importance for experiments with several ions in an optical cavity. The thesis outlines the background theory of light-matter interaction and cavity QED, before describing the physical ion trap hardware and its assembly. A description of the laser and cavity systems is provided, including techniques for locking both to stable references. A number of novel measurement techniques for measuring and maximising the stability of the ions and cavities are presented, including micromotion minimisation, spectroscopy, magnetic field compensation using the ground state Hanle effect, and Raman spectroscopy. These techniques enable the measurement of crucial parameters of the atomic transitions and the cavity. The work culminates in a description of the optimisation of the coupling between ion strings and the cavity first by adjusting the radial trap position by means of variable capacitors attached to RF electrodes, and then axially by means of adjusting the endcap potentials and therefore the spacing between ions to obtain the greatest localisation while still positioning the ions close to the antinodes of the cavity field.
