On the Goodness of “quantum Blobs” as Symplectic Invariant Quantum Cells

نویسنده

  • Maurice de Gosson
چکیده

We introduce a notion of quantum cell which is invariant under linear canonical transformations. These cells, which we dub “quantum blobs”, have the essential and characteristic property that their intersection with any plane of conjugate coordinates passing through their center is an ellipse with area equal to one-half of the quantum of action. We show that this notion is particularly suitable for expressing various quantum mechanical properties, including a new geometric setting for the Weyl–Wigner–Moyal formalism.

Quantum Blobs

Quantum blobs are the smallest phase space units of phase space compatible with the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics and having the symplectic group as group of symmetries. Quantum blobs are in a bijective correspondence with the squeezed coherent states from standard quantum mechanics, of which they are a phase space picture. This allows us to propose a substitute for phase space in ...

SILAR Sensitization as an Effective Method for Making Efficient Quantum Dot Sensitized Solar Cells

CdSe quantum dots were in situ deposited on various structures of TiO2 photoanode by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR). Various sensitized TiO2 structures were integrated as a photoanode in order to make quantum dot sensitized solar cells. High power conversion efficiency was obtained; 2.89 % (Voc=524 mV, Jsc=9.78 mA/cm2, FF=0.56) for the cells that sensitized by SILAR meth...

Effect of PbS Film Thickness on the Performance of Colloidal Quantum Dot Solar Cells

Colloidal quantum dots offer broad tuning of semiconductor band structure via the quantum size effect. In this paper, we present a detailed investigation on the influence of the thickness of colloidal lead sulfide (PbS) nanocrystals (active layer) to the photovoltaic performance of colloidal quantum dot solar cells. The PbS nanocrystals (QDs) were synthesized in a non-coordinating solvent, 1-oc...

The witness set of coexistence of quantum effects and its preservers

One of unsolved problems in quantum measurement theory is to characterize coexistence of quantum effects. In this paper, applying positive operator matrix theory, we give a mathematical characterization of the witness set of coexistence of quantum effects and obtain a series of properties of coexistence. We also devote to characterizing bijective morphisms on quantum effects leaving the witness...
