Μη-γραμμικές οπτικές διαδικασίες σε δομημένο φωτονικό περιβάλλον / Nonlinear optical processes in structured photonic environmentΕυαγγέλου, Σοφία 10 June 2014 (has links)
Μια σχετικά νέα περιοχή έντονης ερευνητικής δραστηριότητας ασχολείται με τη μελέτη των οπτικών ιδιοτήτων κβαντικών συστημάτων (ατόμων/μορίων και ημιαγώγιμων κβαντικών τελειών) συζευγμένων με πλασμονικές (μεταλλικές) νανοδομές. Τα ισχυρά πεδία και ο έντονος περιορισμός του φωτός που σχετίζονται με τους πλασμονικούς συντονισμούς οδηγούν σε ισχυρή αλληλεπίδραση μεταξύ των ηλεκτρομαγνητικών πεδίων και των κβαντικών συστημάτων κοντά σε πλασμονικές νανοδομές. Επιπλέον, χρησιμοποιώντας τα κβαντικά συστήματα μπορεί να επιτευχθεί εξωτερικός έλεγχος των οπτικών ιδιοτήτων της υβριδικής φωτονικής δομής. Στη διδακτορική διατριβή μελετάται θεωρητικά και υπολογιστικά η οπτική απόκριση συμπλεγμάτων κβαντικών συστημάτων με μεταλλικές νανοδομές, δίνοντας έμφαση σε μη-γραμμικές και κβαντικές οπτικές διαδικασίες. Στα συστήματα αυτά τα επιφανειακά πλασμόνια των μεταλλικών νανοδομών επηρεάζουν σημαντικά, τόσο το ηλεκτρομαγνητικό πεδίο που αλληλεπιδρούν τα κβαντικά συστήματα, όσο και το ρυθμό αυθόρμητης εκπομπής των κβαντικών συστημάτων. Μελετάμε απλές και πολύπλοκες μεταλλικές νανοδομές, όπως μια μεταλλική νανοσφαίρα και μια διδιάστατη διάταξη διηλεκτρικών νανοσφαιρών επικαλυμμένων με μέταλλο (μεταλλικοί νανοφλοιοί). Τα κβαντικά συστήματα είναι άτομα/μόρια και κυρίως ημιαγώγιμες κβαντικές τελείες και περιγράφονται από συστήματα δύο, τριών και τεσσάρων ενεργειακών επιπέδων. Δείχνουμε ότι, φαινόμενα όπως δημιουργία κβαντικής συμβολής στην αυθόρμητη εκπομπή, σύμφωνη ελεγχόμενη αναστροφή πληθυσμού, οπτική διαφάνεια και κέρδος χωρίς αναστροφή πληθυσμού, δημιουργία αργού φωτός, τροποποιημένη οπτική μη-γραμμικότητα Kerr και μίξη τεσσάρων κυμάτων, όπως και φαινόμενα ελέγχου μέσω φάσης, εμφανίζονται στα κβαντικά συστήματα και τροποποιούνται σημαντικά λόγω της ύπαρξης της μεταλλικής νανοδομής. / A relatively new area of active research involves the study of the optical properties of quantum systems (atoms/molecules and semiconductor quantum dots) coupled to plasmonic (metallic) nanostructures. The large fields and the strong light confinement associated with the plasmonic resonances enable strong interaction between the electromagnetic field and quantum systems near plasmonic nanostructures. In addition, using the quantum system one may achieve external control of the optical properties of the hybrid photonic structure. In this thesis we analyze both theoretically and computationally the optical response of hybrid nanosystems comprised of quantum emitters and plasmonic nanostructures. We put emphasis on the study of nonlinear and quantum optical processes. In these systems the spontaneous decay rate and the electromagnetic field that interacts with the quantum emitter is significantly modified by the surface plasmons of the plasmonic nanostructures. We study cases of both simple and more involved plasmonic nanostructures. An example of a simple plasmonic nanostructure considered in this thesis is a metallic nanosphere, while a more involved one is a two-dimensional array of metal-coated dielectric nanospheres. The quantum systems are atoms/molecules and especially semiconductor quantum dots and are described by two-level, three-level or four-level systems. We find that several coherent optical phenomena that happen in the quantum systems can be strongly influenced by the presence of the plasmonic nanostructure. Specifically, we show that effects such as quantum interference in spontaneous emission, controlled population inversion, optical transparency and gain without inversion, slow light, enhanced nonlinear optical Kerr effect and four-wave mixing as well as phase-dependent absorption and dispersion profiles can be created and modified.

Quantum Dissipative Dynamics and Decoherence of Dimers on Helium DropletsSchlesinger, Martin 06 February 2012 (has links) (PDF)
In this thesis, quantum dynamical simulations are performed in order to describe the vibrational motion of diatomic molecules in a highly quantum environment, so-called helium droplets. We aim to reproduce and explain experimental findings which were obtained from dimers on helium droplets. Nanometer-sized helium droplets contain several thousands of 4-He atoms. They serve as a host for embedded atoms or molecules and provide an ultracold “refrigerator” for them. Spectroscopy of molecules in or on these droplets reveals information on both the molecule and the helium environment. The droplets are known to be in the superfluid He II phase. Superfluidity in nanoscale systems is a steadily growing field of research.
Spectra obtained from full quantum simulations for the unperturbed dimer show deviations from measurements with dimers on helium droplets. These deviations result from the influence of the helium environment on the dimer dynamics. In this work, a well-established quantum optical master equation is used in order to describe the dimer dynamics effectively. The master equation allows to describe damping fully quantum mechanically. By employing that equation in the quantum dynamical simulation, one can study the role of dissipation and decoherence in dimers on helium droplets.
The effective description allows to explain experiments with Rb-2 dimers on helium droplets. Here, we identify vibrational damping and associated decoherence as the main explanation for the experimental results. The relation between decoherence and dissipation in Morse-like systems at zero temperature is studied in more detail.
The dissipative model is also used to investigate experiments with K-2 dimers on helium droplets. However, by comparing numerical simulations with experimental data, one finds that further mechanisms are active. Here, a good agreement is obtained through accounting for rapid desorption of dimers. We find that decoherence occurs in the electronic manifold of the molecule. Finally, we are able to examine whether superfluidity of the host does play a role in these experiments. / In dieser Dissertation werden quantendynamische Simulationen durchgeführt, um die Schwingungsbewegung zweiatomiger Moleküle in einer hochgradig quantenmechanischen Umgebung, sogenannten Heliumtröpfchen, zu beschreiben. Unser Ziel ist es, experimentelle Befunde zu reproduzieren und zu erklären, die von Dimeren auf Heliumtröpfchen erhalten wurden.
Nanometergroße Heliumtröpfchen enthalten einige tausend 4-He Atome. Sie dienen als Wirt für eingebettete Atome oder Moleküle und stellen für dieseeinen ultrakalten „Kühlschrank“ bereit. Durch Spektroskopie mit Molekülen in oder auf diesen Tröpfchen erhält man Informationen sowohl über das Molekül selbst als auch über die Heliumumgebung. Man weiß, dass sich die Tröpfchen in der suprafluiden He II Phase befinden. Suprafluidität in Nanosystemen ist ein stetig wachsendes Forschungsgebiet.
Spektren, die für das ungestörte Dimer durch voll quantenmechanische Simulationen erhalten werden, weichen von Messungen mit Dimeren auf Heliumtröpfchen ab. Diese Abweichungen lassen sich auf den Einfluss der Heliumumgebung auf die Dynamik des Dimers zurückführen. In dieser Arbeit wird eine etablierte quantenoptische Mastergleichung verwendet, um die Dynamik des Dimers effektiv zu beschreiben. Die Mastergleichung erlaubt es, Dämpfung voll quantenmechanisch zu beschreiben. Durch Verwendung dieser Gleichung in der Quantendynamik-Simulation lässt sich die Rolle von Dissipation und Dekohärenz in Dimeren auf Heliumtröpfchen untersuchen.
Die effektive Beschreibung erlaubt es, Experimente mit Rb-2 Dimeren zu erklären. In diesen Untersuchungen wird Dissipation und die damit verbundene Dekohärenz im Schwingungsfreiheitsgrad als maßgebliche Erklärung für die experimentellen Resultate identifiziert. Die Beziehung zwischen Dekohärenz und Dissipation in Morse-artigen Systemen bei Temperatur Null wird genauer untersucht.
Das Dissipationsmodell wird auch verwendet, um Experimente mit K-2 Dimeren auf Heliumtröpfchen zu untersuchen. Wie sich beim Vergleich von numerischen Simulationen mit experimentellen Daten allerdings herausstellt, treten weitere Mechanismen auf. Eine gute Übereinstimmung wird erzielt, wenn man eine schnelle Desorption der Dimere berücksichtigt. Wir stellen fest, dass ein Dekohärenzprozess im elektronischen Freiheitsgrad des Moleküls auftritt. Schlussendlich sind wir in der Lage herauszufinden, ob Suprafluidität des Wirts in diesen Experimenten eine Rolle spielt.

Statistical mechanics of time-periodic quantum systems / Statistische Mechanik zeitperiodischer QuantensystemeWustmann, Waltraut 15 June 2010 (has links) (PDF)
The asymptotic state of a quantum system, which is in contact with a heat bath, is strongly disturbed by a time-periodic driving in comparison to a time-independent system. In this thesis an extensive picture of the asymptotic state of time-periodic quantum systems is drawn by relating it to the structure of the corresponding classical phase space. To this end the occupation probabilities of the Floquet states are analyzed with respect to their semiclassical property of being either regular or chaotic. The regular Floquet states are occupied with exponential weights e^{-betaeff Ereg} similar to the canonical weights e^{-beta E} of time-independent systems. The regular energies Ereg are defined by the quantization of the time-periodic system, whose classical properties also determine the effective temperature 1/betaeff. In contrast, the chaotic Floquet states acquire almost equal probabilities, irrespective of their time-averaged energy.
Beyond these semiclassical properties the existence of avoided crossings in the spectrum is an intrinsic quantum property of time-periodic systems. Avoided crossings can strongly influence the entire occupation distribution. As an impressive application a novel switching mechanism is proposed in a periodically driven double well potential coupled to a heat bath. By a weak variation of the driving amplitude its asymptotic state is switched from the ground state in one well to a state with higher average energy in the other well. / Der asymptotische Zustand eines Quantensystems, das in Kontakt mit einem Wärmebad steht, wird durch einen zeitlich periodischen Antrieb gegenüber einem zeitunabhängigen System nachhaltig verändert. In dieser Arbeit wird ein umfassendes Bild über den asymptotischen Zustand zeitlich periodischer Quantensysteme entworfen, indem es diesen zur Struktur des zugehörigen klassischen Phasenraums in Beziehung setzt. Dazu werden die Besetzungswahrscheinlichkeiten der Floquet-Zustände hinsichtlich ihrer semiklassischen Eigenschaft analysiert, nach welcher sie entweder regulär oder chaotisch sind. Die regulären Floquet-Zustände sind mit exponentiellen Gewichten e^{-betaeff Ereg} ähnlich der kanonischen Verteilung e^{-beta E} zeitunabhängiger Systeme besetzt. Dabei sind die reguläre Energien Ereg durch die Quantisierung des Systems vorgegeben, dessen klassische Eigenschaften auch die effektive Temperatur 1/betaeff bestimmen. Die chaotischen Zustände dagegen haben fast einheitliche Besetzungswahrscheinlichkeiten, welche unabhängig von ihrer mittleren Energie sind.
Über diese semiklassischen Eigenschaften hinaus ist das Auftreten von vermiedenen Kreuzungen im Spektrum eine intrinsisch quantenmechanische Eigenschaft zeitlich periodischer Systeme. Diese können die gesamte Besetzungsverteilung nachhaltig beeinflussen und finden eine eindrucksvolle Anwendung in Form eines neuartigen Schaltmechanismus in einem harmonisch modulierten Doppelmuldenpotential in Kontakt mit einem Wärmebad. Der asymptotische Zustand kann unter geringer Variation der Antriebsamplitude vom Grundzustand der einen Mulde in einen Zustand höherer mittlerer Energie in der anderen Mulde geschaltet werden.

Hybrid spin-nanomechanical systems in parametric interaction / Systèmes hybrides spino-mécaniques en interaction paramétriqueRohr, Sven 15 December 2014 (has links)
L'exploration du monde quantique au moyen d'objets macroscopiques constitue l'un des défis centraux de ces dernières décennies pour la recherche en physique. Parmi les systèmes proposés pour atteindre cet objectif, les systèmes hybrides, qui couplent un résonateur nanomécanique à un qubit unique, font figure de paradigme.L'excitation cohérente d'un oscillateur mécanique macroscopique par un unique spin électronique ouvrirait en particulier de nouvelles perspectives pour la création d'états quantiques arbitraires du mouvement.Dans ce manuscrit, nous considérons un système hybride constitué d'un oscillateur nanomécanique et du spin électronique d'un unique centre NV, couplés entre eux par une interaction magnétique. Nous nous concentrons sur le cas d'une interaction paramétrique où la vibration mécanique module l'énergie du qubit, et plus précisément sur le cas où le qubit ainsi forcé et l'oscillateur mécanique évoluent sur des échelles de temps comparables.Dans cette situation, nos observations montrent une synchronisation de la dynamique du qubit sur l'oscillation mécanique. Le phénomène est dans un premier temps abordé par une expérience-test qui remplace le mouvement mécanique par un champ radiofréquence en couplage paramétrique avec le spin. Cette première implémentation permet de dégager les propriétés essentielles de l'effet paramétrique, qui est dans un second temps observé sur l'expérience principale.Dans cette seconde expérience, un centre NV est attaché à l'extrémité d'un nanofil de carbure de silicium en vibration placé dans un fort gradient de champ magnétique. Le caractère bidimensionnel des déformations du nanofil octroie alors à la synchronisation des signatures vectorielles encore inédites, qui peuvent aussi être interprétées comme la manifestation d'un triplet de Mollow phononique, ainsi qu'il a été observé dans les premières expériences d'électrodynamique quantique.Finalement, nous explorons la robustesse de la synchronisation vis-à-vis du mouvement Brownien du résonateur, et démontrons la possibilité de protéger le qubit de cette source de décohérence additionnelle grâce à une excitation mécanique de faible amplitude. / Probing the quantum world with macroscopic objects has been a core challenge for research in physics during the past decades. Proposed systems to reach this goal include hybrid devices that couple a nanomechanical resonator to a single spin qubit. In particular, the coherent actuation of a macroscopic mechanical oscillator by a single electronic spin would open perspectives in the creation of arbitrary quantum states of motion.In this manuscript, we investigate a hybrid system coupling a nanomechanical oscillator and a single electronic spin of a NV defect in magnetic interaction. We focus on the parametric interaction case, when the mechanical motion modulates the qubit energy, and in particular when the driven qubit and mechanical oscillators evolves on similar timescales. In that situation a synchronization of the qubit dynamics onto the mechanical motion is observed. The phenomenon is first explored on a test experiment where mechanical motion is replaced by a parametrically coupled RF field. It allows to establish the main properties of the phenomenon, which is subsequently investigated on the core experiment. It consists of a NV defect attached at the vibrating extremity of a silicon carbide nanowire, immersed in a strong magnetic field gradient. The bidimensional character of the nanowire deformations is responsible for novel vectorial signatures in the synchronization, which can also be viewed as a phononic Mollow triplet as observed in early quantum electrodynamics experiments. We finally explore the robustness of the synchronization against the Brownian motion of the resonator and demonstrate the possibility to protect the qubit against this additional decoherence source by applying a small coherent mechanical drive.

Previous issue date: 2010-02-24 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / This paper deals with the influence of the gravitational field produced by a rotating black
hole on quantum systems. More specifically, are considered scalar quantum particles, which
are described by the Klein-Gordon equation. Initially, it was shown a way by which is possible
to obtain the Kerr metric, which characterize a rotating black hole. Still on the Kerr metric, it
was studied some important properties of this spacetime. Was then obtained the exact solution
of the Klein-Gordon equation in the Kerr spacetime, which is given in terms of the confluent
Heun s functions and, in the particular case of extreme Kerr, was obtained that the solution of
the Klein-Gordon equation in this spacetime is given by the doubly confluent Heun s functions.
For the Klein-Gordon equation in the Kerr spacetime, it was verified that the solution is consistent
with results already known in the literature for regions near the event horizon and at
infinity. Moreover, due to the difficulties inherent in the Kerr metric, was considered the limit
where the black hole has low rotational speed, resulting in the metric of Lense-Thirring. In this
situation, using an asymptotic method and a method in series, were obtained approximate solutions
that describe the behavior of scalar quantum particles in the presence of the gravitational
field produced by the body. Finally, some physical effects in Kerr spacetime were considered. / Este trabalho trata sobre a influência do campo gravitacional produzido por um buraco negro
com rotação sobre sistemas quânticos. Mais especificamente, são consideradas partículas
quânticas escalares, que são descritas através da equação de Klein-Gordon. Inicialmente, é
mostrado uma maneira através da qual é possíıvel obter a métrica de Kerr, a qual caracteriza um
buraco negro com rotação. Ainda sobre a métrica de Kerr, são estudadas algumas propriedades
importantes deste espaço-tempo. Em seguida, foi obtida a solução exata da equação de Klein-
Gordon no espaço-tempo de Kerr, sendo esta dada em termos das funções confluentes de Heun
e, no caso particular de Kerr extremo, foi obtido que a soluçã
o da equação de Klein-Gordon
neste espaço-tempo é dada pelas funções duplamente confluente de Heun. Para a equação de
Klein-Gordon no espaço-tempo de Kerr, verificou-se que a soluçãoo obtida é compatível com
resultados já conhecidos na literatura para regiões próximo ao horizonte de eventos e no infinito.
Por outro lado, devido às dificuldades inerentes á métrica de Kerr, foi considerado o
limite em que o buraco negro possui baixas velocidades de rotação, resultando na métrica de
Lense-Thirring. Nesta situação, usando um método assintótico e um outro método em série,
foram obtidas soluções aproximadas que descrevem o comportamento de partículas quânticas
escalares na presença do campo gravitacional produzido por este corpo. Por fim, alguns efeitos
físicos no espaço-tempo de Kerr foram considerados.

Phase-Space Localization of Chaotic Resonance States due to Partial Transport BarriersKörber, Martin Julius 27 January 2017 (has links)
Classical partial transport barriers govern both classical and quantum dynamics of generic Hamiltonian systems. Chaotic eigenstates of quantum systems are known to localize on either side of a partial barrier if the flux connecting the two sides is not resolved by means of Heisenberg's uncertainty. Surprisingly, in open systems, in which orbits can escape, chaotic resonance states exhibit such a localization even if the flux across the partial barrier is quantum mechanically resolved. We explain this using the concept of conditionally invariant measures by introducing a new quantum mechanically relevant class of such fractal measures. We numerically find quantum-to-classical correspondence for localization transitions depending on the openness of the system and on the decay rate of resonance states. Moreover, we show that the number of long-lived chaotic resonance states that localize on one particular side of the partial barrier is described by an individual fractal Weyl law. For a generic phase space, this implies a hierarchy of fractal Weyl laws, one for each region of the hierarchical decomposition of phase space.

Investigation of the emergence of thermodynamic behavior in closed quantum systems and its relation to standard stochastic descriptionsSchmidtke, Daniel 20 August 2018 (has links)
Our everyday experiences teach us that any imbalance like temperature gradients, non-uniform particle-densities etc. will approach some equilibrium state if not subjected to any external force. Phenomenological descriptions of these empirical findings reach back to the 19th century where Fourier and Fick presented descriptions of relaxation for macroscopic systems by stochastic approaches. However, one of the main goals of thermodynamics remained the derivation of these phenomenological description from basic microscopic principles. This task has gained much attraction since the foundation of quantum mechanics about 100 years ago. However, up to now no such conclusive derivation is presented. In this dissertation we will investigate whether closed quantum systems may show equilibration, and if so, to what extend such dynamics are in accordance with standard thermodynamic behavior as described by stochastic approaches. To this end we consider i.a. Markovian dynamics, Fokker-Planck and diffusion equations. Furthermore, we consider fluctuation theorems as given e.g. by the Jarzynski relation beyond strict Gibbsian initial states. After all we find indeed good agreement for selected quantum systems.

Formas triangulares para sistemas não-lineares com duas entradas e controle de sistemas sem arrasto em SU(n) com aplicações em mecânica quântica. / Triangular forms for nonlinear systems with two inputs and control of driftless systems on SU(n) with applications in quantum mechanics.Silveira, Hector Bessa 19 February 2010 (has links)
A presente tese aborda dois problemas distintos e independentes: triangularização de sistemas não-lineares com duas entradas e controle de sistemas sem arrasto que evoluem no grupo especial unitário SU(n). Em relação ao primeiro, estabeleceu-se, através da generalização de resultados bem conhecidos, condições geométricas para que um sistema com duas entradas seja descrito por uma forma triangular específica após uma mudança de coordenadas e uma realimentação de estado estática regular. Para o segundo problema, desenvolveu-se uma estratégia de controle que força o estado do sistema a rastrear assintoticamente uma trajetória de referência periódica que passa por um estado objetivo arbitrário. O método de controle proposto utiliza os resultados de convergência de tipo- Lyapunov que foram estabelecidos pela presente pesquisa e que tiveram como inspiração uma versão periódica do princípio da invariância de LaSalle. Apresentou-se, ainda, os resultados de simulação obtidos com a aplicação da técnica de controle desenvolvida a um sistema quântico consistindo de duas partículas de spin-1/2, com o objetivo de gerar a porta lógica quântica C-NOT. / This thesis treats two distinct and independent problems: triangularization of nonlinear systems with two inputs and control of driftless systems which evolve on the special unitary group SU(n). Concerning the first, one has established, by means of the generalization of well-known results, geometric conditions for a system with two inputs to be described by a specific triangular form after a change of coordinates and a regular static state feedback. For the second problem, one has developed a control strategy that forces the state of the system to track in an asymptotic manner a periodic reference trajectory which passes by an arbitrary goal state. The proposed control method uses Lyapunovlike convergence results that were established in this research and which were inspired in a periodic version of LaSalles invariance principle. Furthermore, one has shown the simulation results obtained from the application of the developed control technique to a quantum system consisting of two spin-1/2 particles, with the aim of generating the C-NOT quantum logic gate.
