Coherent destruction of tunneling and dark Floquet state

We study a system of three coherently coupled states, where one state is shifted periodically against the other two. We discover that this system possesses a dark Floquet state that has zero quasi-energy and negligible population at the intermediate state. This dark Floquet state manifests itself dynamically in terms of the suppression of inter-state tunneling, a phenomenon known as coherent de...

Operator-based triple-mode Floquet theory in solid-state NMR.

Many solid-state NMR experiments exploit interference effects between time dependencies in the system Hamiltonian to design an effective time-independent Hamiltonian with the desired properties. Effective Hamiltonians can be designed such that they contain only selected parts of the full system Hamiltonian while all other parts are averaged to zero. A general theoretical description of such exp...

Floquet Theory

Lemma 8.4 If C is a n n × matrix with 0 det ≠ C , then, there exists a n n × (complex) matrix B such that C e = . Proof: For any matrix C , there exists an invertible matrix P , s.t. 1 P CP J − = , where J is a Jordan matrix. If C e = , then, 1 1 1 P B P B e P e P P CP J − − − = = = . Therefore, it is suffice to prove the result when C is in a canonical form. Suppose that 1 ( , , ) s C diag C C...
