Mesoscopic quantum coherence in an optical lattice
We observe the quantum coherent dynamics of atomic spinor wave packets in the double-well potentials of a far-off-resonance optical lattice. With appropriate initial conditions the system Rabi oscillates between the left and right localized states of the ground doublet, and at certain times the wave packet corresponds to a coherent superposition of these mesoscopically distinct quantum states. ...
متن کاملMesoscopic systems: classical irreversibility and quantum coherence.
Mesoscopic physics is a sub-discipline of condensed-matter physics that focuses on the properties of solids in a size range intermediate between bulk matter and individual atoms. In particular, it is characteristic of a domain where a certain number of interacting objects can easily be tuned between classical and quantum regimes, thus enabling studies at the border of the two. In magnetism, suc...
متن کاملSpin stiffness of mesoscopic quantum antiferromagnets.
We study the spin stiffness of a one-dimensional quantum antiferromagnet in the whole range of system sizes L and temperatures T . We show that for integer and halfodd integer spin case the stiffness differs fundamentally in its L and T dependence, and that in the latter case the stiffness exhibits a striking dependence on the parity of the number of sites. Integer spin chains are treated in te...
متن کاملQuantum Phase Coherence in Mesoscopic Transport Devices with Two-Particle Interaction
In this paper we demonstrate a new type of quantum phase coherence (QPC), which is generated by the two-body interaction. This conclusion is based on quantum master equation analysis for the full counting statistics of electron transport through two parallel quantum-dots with antiparallel magnetic fluxes in order to eliminate the Aharonov-Bohm interference of either single-particle or non-inter...
متن کاملPhase-coherence time saturation in mesoscopic systems: wave function collapse
A finite phase-coherence time τ meas φ emerges from iterative measurement onto a quantum system. For a rapid sequence, the phase-coherence time is found explicitly. For the stationary charge conduction problem, it is bounded. At all order, in the time-interval of measurements, we propose a general expression for τ meas φ.
