Heat Transport in Quantum Spin Chains Stochastic Baths vs Quantum Trajectories
We discuss the problem of heat conduction in quantum spin chain models. To investigate this problem it is necessary to consider the finite open system connected to heat baths. We describe two different procedures to couple the system with the reservoirs: a model of stochastic heat baths and the quantum trajectories solution of the quantum master equation. The stochastic heat bath procedure oper...
متن کاملHeat Transport in Spin Chains with Weak Spin-Phonon Coupling.
The heat transport in a system of S=1/2 large-J Heisenberg spin chains, describing closely Sr(2)CuO(3) and SrCuO(2) cuprates, is studied theoretically at T≪J by considering interactions of the bosonized spin excitations with optical phonons and defects. Treating rigorously the multiboson processes, we derive a microscopic spin-phonon scattering rate that adheres to an intuitive picture of phono...
متن کاملSpin-incoherent transport in quantum wires.
When a quantum wire is weakly confined, a conductance plateau appears at e;{2}/h with decreasing carrier density in zero magnetic field accompanied by a gradual suppression of the 2e;{2}/h plateau. Applying an in-plane magnetic field B_{ parallel} does not alter the value of this quantization; however, the e;{2}/h plateau weakens with increasing B_{ parallel} up to 9 T, and then strengthens on ...
متن کاملPerfect quantum transport in arbitrary spin networks
Spin chains have been proposed as wires to transport information between distributed registers in a quantum information processor. Unfortunately, the challenges in manufacturing linear chains with engineered couplings has hindered experimental implementations. Here we present strategies to achieve perfect quantum information transport in arbitrary spin networks. Our proposal is based on the wea...
متن کاملHeat transport in mesoscopic systems
Phonon heat transport in mesoscopic systems is investigated using methods analogous to the Landauer description of electrical conductance. A “universal heat conductance” expression that depends on the properties of the conducting pathway only through the mode cutoff frequencies is derived. Corrections due to reflections at the junction between the thermal body and the conducting bridge are foun...
