Decoherence effects in the Wigner function formalism
We demonstrate the ability of the phase space formulation of quantum mechanics to provide convenient means and intuitive notions for exploring the process of transition from a quantum to a classical state known as decoherence. The Wigner equation, which is usually relevant for electron transport in nanostructures, augmented by the Boltzmann scattering operator is now applied to the time depende...
متن کاملNanoelectronic Device Simulation Based on the Wigner Function Formalism
Coherent transport in mesoscopic devices is well described by the Schrödinger equation supplemented by open boundary conditions. When electronic devices are operated at room temperature, however, a realistic transport model needs to include carrier scattering. In this work the kinetic equation for the Wigner function is employed as a model for dissipative quantum transport. Carrier scattering i...

متن کاملThe Hamiltonian Formalism for Dissipative Mechanical Systems
In this paper show that dissipative mechanical systems can be represented as Hamiltonian formalism. We have defined an expanded Hamiltonian function that leads to a unique conservative system for every phase flow of a dissipative mechanical system. We have demonstrated, whether the class of dissipative mechanical system has an analytical solution or not, it can be represented as an infinite num...
متن کاملPartial Bell-State Analysis with Parametric down Conversion in the Wigner Function Formalism
We apply the Wigner function formalism to partial Bell-state analysis using polarization entanglement produced in parametric down conversion. Two-photon statistics at a beam-splitter are reproduced by a wave-like description with zeropoint fluctuations of the electromagnetic field. In particular, the fermionic behaviour of two photons in the singlet state is explained from the invariance on the...
