Unruh Radiation with Ultra - Intense Lasers ?
ABSTRACT We point out that using the state-of-the-art (or soon-to-be) intense ultrafast laser technology, violent acceleration that may be suitable for testing general relativistic e ects can be realized through the interaction of a high intensity laser with a plasma. In particular, we demonstrate that the Unruh radiation is detectable, in principle, beyond the conventional radiation (most nota...
متن کاملA test of the circular Unruh effect using atomic electrons
We propose a test for the circular Unruh effect using certain atoms – fluorine and oxygen. For these atoms the centripetal acceleration of the outer shell electrons implies an effective Unruh temperature in the range 1000–2000 K. This range of Unruh temperatures is large enough to shift the expected occupancy of the lowest energy level and nearby energy levels. In effect the Unruh temperature c...
متن کاملQuantum metrology and estimation of Unruh effect
We study the quantum metrology for a pair of entangled Unruh-Dewitt detectors when one of them is accelerated and coupled to a massless scalar field. Comparing with previous schemes, our model requires only local interaction and avoids the use of cavities in the probe state preparation process. We show that the probe state preparation and the interaction between the accelerated detector and the...
متن کاملTemperature Effect on THz Quantum Cascade Lasers
A simple semi-phenomenological model, which accurately predicts the dependence of thresholdcurrent for temperature of Resonant-phonon three well quantum cascade laser based on verticaltransitions is offered. We found that, the longitude optical phonon scattering of thermally excitedelectrons is the most important limiting factor for thermal performance of high frequency THz QCLs.In low frequenc...
متن کاملNon equilibrium electrons and phonons in quantum-cascade lasers
The electron-phonon interaction is the dominant process that controls the energy relaxation of carriers, in semiconductors and related heterostructures. If the excess energy of the electron ensemble is sufficiently high, the process of electron cooling may generate significant nonequilibrium electron and optical-phonon populations which may cause substantial changes in the carrier relaxation ki...
