چکیده
As an important model in quantum semiconductor devices, the Schrödinger-Poisson equations have generated widespread interests in both analysis and numerical simulations in recent years. In this paper, we present Gaussian beam methods for the numerical simulation of the one-dimensional Schrodinger-Poisson equations. The Gaussian beam methods for high frequency waves outperform the geometrical optics method in that the former are accurate even around caustics. The purposes of the paper are first to develop the Gaussian beam methods, based on our previous methods for the linear Schrödinger equation, for the Schrödinger-Poisson equations, and then check their validity for this weakly-nonlinear system.

Stable Gaussian radial basis function method for solving Helmholtz equations
Radial basis functions (RBFs) are a powerful tool for approximating the solution of high-dimensional problems. They are often referred to as a meshfree method and can be spectrally accurate. In this paper, we analyze a new stable method for evaluating Gaussian radial basis function interpolants based on the eigenfunction expansion. We develop our approach in two-dimensional spaces for so...

متن کاملGiant Goos-Häenchen Shift of a Gaussian Beam Reflected from One-Dimensional Photonic Crystals Containing Left-Handed Lossy Metamaterials
We perform a theoretical investigation on the Goos-Häenchen shift (the lateral shift) in one-dimensional photonic crystals (1DPCs) containing left-handed (LH) metamaterials. The effect was studied by use of a Gaussian beam. We show that the giant lateral displacement is due to the localization of the electromagnetic wave which can be both positive and negative depending on the incidence angle o...
متن کاملGaussian Beam Methods for the Schrödinger Equation in the Semi-classical Regime: Lagrangian and Eulerian Formulations
The solution to the Schrödinger equation is highly oscillatory when the rescaled Planck constant ε is small in the semiclassical regime. A direct numerical simulation requires the mesh size to be O(ε). The Gaussian beam method is an efficient way to solve the high frequency wave equations asymptotically, outperforming the geometric optics method in that the Gaussian beam method is accurate even...
متن کاملNumerical superposition of Gaussian beams over propagating domain for high frequency waves and high-order invariant-preserving methods for dispersive waves
This thesis is devoted to efficient numerical methods and their implementations for two classes of wave equations. The first class is linear wave equations in very high frequency regime, for which one has to use some asymptotic approach to address the computational challenges. We focus on the use of the Gaussian beam superposition to compute the semi– classical limit of the Schrödinger equation...
