Dissipative Effect and Tunneling Time
نویسندگان
چکیده
The quantum Langevin equation has been studied for dissipative system using the approach of Ford et al. Here, we have considered the inverted harmonic oscillator potential and calculated the effect of dissipation on tunneling time, group delay, and the self-interference term. A critical value of the friction coefficient has been determined for which the self-interference term vanishes. This approach sheds new light on understanding the ion transport at nanoscale.

Tunneling with the Lorentz Force and the Friction
We present a semiclassical study of a transport process, the tunneling, in the presence of a magnetic field and a dissipative environment. We have found that the problem can be mapped onto an effective one-dimensional one, and the tunneling rate is strongly affected by the magnetic field, such as a complete suppression by a large parallel magnetic field, an example of the dynamical localization...
متن کاملDissipative quantum dynamics in low-energy collisions of complex nuclei
Model calculations that include the effects of irreversible, environmental couplings on top of a coupled-channels dynamical description of the collision of two complex nuclei are presented. The Liouville-von Neumann equation for the time evolution of the density matrix of a dissipative system is solved numerically providing a consistent transition from coherent to decoherent (and dissipative) d...
متن کاملAn Exact Solution for Quantum Tunneling in a Dissipative System
Applying a technique developed recently [1,2] for an harmonic oscillator coupled to a bath of harmonic oscillators, we present an exact solution for the tunneling problem in an Ohmic dissipative system with inverted harmonic potential. The result shows that while the dissipation tends to suppress the tunneling, the Brownian motion tends to enhance the tunneling. Whether the tunneling rate incre...
متن کاملDissipative tunneling control by elliptically polarized fields
The tunneling dynamics of a dissipative two-level system that is strongly driven by elliptically polarized electric fields is investigated. The dissipative dynamics is governed within the noninteracting-blip-approximation for the stochastic forces by a generalized master equation ~GME!. With the focus being on viscous friction, we compare exact numerical solutions of the GME with analytical app...
متن کاملThermally Assisted Quantum Vortex Tunneling in the Hall and Dissipative Regime
Quantum vortex tunneling is studied for the case where the Hall and the dissipative dynamics are simultaneously present. For a given temperature, the magnetization relaxation rate is calculated as a function of the external current and the quasiparticle scattering time. The relaxation rate is solved analytically at zero temperature and obtained numerically at finite temperatures by the variatio...
