Magnetic Engine for the Single-Particle Landau Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the effect of the degeneracy factor in the energy levels of the well-known Landau problem for a magnetic engine. The scheme of the cycle is composed of two adiabatic processes and two isomagnetic processes driven by a quasi-static modulation of external magnetic field intensity. We derive the analytical expression of the relation between the magnetic field and temperature along the adiabatic process and, in particular, reproduce the expression for the efficiency as a function of the compression ratio.

Magnetic Quantum Otto Engine for the Single-Particle Landau Problem
We study the effect of the degeneracy factor in the energy levels of the well-known Landau problem for a magnetic quantum Otto engine. The scheme of the cycle is composed of two quantum adiabatic processes and two quantum isomagnetic processes driven by a quasi-static modulation of external magnetic field intensity. We derive the analytical expression of the relation between the magnetic field ...
متن کاملMagnetostrain-driven quantum engine on a graphene flake.
We propose an alternative conceptual design for a graphene-based quantum engine, driven by a superposition of mechanical strain and an external magnetic field. Engineering of strain in a nanoscale graphene flake creates a gauge field with an associated uniform pseudomagnetic field. The strain-induced pseudomagnetic field can be combined with a real magnetic field, leading to the emergence of di...
متن کاملThe Gauss-Landau-Hall problem on Riemannian surfaces
We introduce the notion of Gauss-Landau-Hall magnetic field on a Riemannian surface. The corresponding Landau-Hall problem is shown to be equivalent to the dynamics of a massive boson. This allows one to view that problem as a globally stated, variational one. In this framework, flowlines appear as critical points of an action with density depending on the proper acceleration. Moreover, we can ...

We consider the single particle relaxation rate of 2D electrons subject to a random magnetic field. The density of states (DOS) oscillations in a uniform magnetic field (in addition to a random one) are studied. It is shown that the infrared singularities appearing in perturbation theory for the single particle relaxation rate are spurious and can be regularized by a proper choice of gauge. We ...
متن کاملSpin-transfer torque induced reversal in magnetic domains
Using the complex stereographic variable representation for the macrospin, from a study of the nonlinear dynamics underlying the generalized Landau-Lifshitz(LL) equation with Gilbert damping, we show that the spin-transfer torque is effectively equivalent to an applied magnetic field. We study the macrospin switching on a Stoner particle due to spin-transfer torque on application of a spin pola...
