The Jahn-teller Instability with Accidental Degeneracy
The Jahn-Teller theorem predicts that orbitally degenerate complexes in solids can lower their energy by a distortion which lowers their symmetry. Exact degeneracy is not necessary for this instability; usually it suffices if the actual separation of the energy levels involved is less than the energy reduction which would result if they were exactly degenerate. We discuss various cases of accid...
متن کاملDegeneracy Breaking, Modal Symmetry and MEMS Biosensors
This work is concerned with degenerate modes of vibration in problems involving rotational symmetries of finite order. In the case of infinite order symmetry of the material and the geometry, two degenerate mode pairs exist for each natural number, corresponding to the cyclic periodicity of the solution. Degenerate sensors have been developed in MEMS over the past 20 years that exploit weak cou...
متن کاملThermal Conductivity of the Accidental Degeneracy and Enlarged Symmetry Group Models for Superconducting UPt3
We present theoretical calculations of the thermal conductivity for the " accidental degeneracy " and " enlarged symmetry group " models that have been proposed to explain the phase diagram of UPt 3. The order parameters for these models possess point nodes or cross nodes, reflecting the broken symmetries of the ground state. These broken symmetries lead to robust predictions for the ratio of t...
متن کاملSymmetry and degeneracy in microstructured optical fibers.
The symmetry of an optical waveguide determines its modal degeneracies. A fiber with rotational symmetry of order higher than 2 has modes that either are nondegenerate and support the complete fiber symmetry or are twofold degenerate pairs of lower symmetry. The latter case applies to the fundamental modes of perfect microstructured optical fibers, guaranteeing that such fibers are not birefrin...
متن کاملAccidental Degeneracy and Berry Phase of Resonant States
We study the complex geometric phase acquired by the resonant states of an open quantum system which evolves irreversibly in a slowly time dependent environment. In analogy with the case of bound states, the Berry phase factors of resonant states are holonomy group elements of a complex line bundle with structure group C∗. In sharp contrast with bound states, accidental degeneracies of resonanc...
