چکیده

We prove the existence of a set of two-scale magnetic Wannier orbitals, wmn(r), in the infinite plane. The quantum numbers of these states are the positions (m,n) of their centers which form a von Neumann lattice. Function w00(r) localized at the origin has a nearly Gaussian shape of exp(−r2/4l2)/ √ 2π for r ∼ √ 2πl, where l is the magnetic length. This region makes a dominating contribution to the normalization integral. Outside this region function, w00(r) is small, oscillates, and falls off with the Thouless critical exponent for magnetic orbitals, r−2. These functions form a convenient basis for many electron problems. 71.70.Di, 73.20.Dx Typeset using REVTEX 1

A complete set of localized orthogonal wave functions for an electron at the lowest Landau level is found. The quantum numbers of these states are the positions of their centers which form a von Neumann lattice. The function localized at the origin has a nearly Gaussian shape exp(−r2/4l2)/ √ 2π for r ∼ √ 2πl. However, it oscillates and decreases as r for r ∼ √ 2πl; l is the magnetic length. The...

Chemical Bonding: The Orthogonal Valence-Bond View

Chemical bonding is the stabilization of a molecular system by charge- and spin-reorganization processes in chemical reactions. These processes are said to be local, because the number of atoms involved is very small. With multi-configurational self-consistent field (MCSCF) wave functions, these processes can be calculated, but the local information is hidden by the delocalized molecular orbita...

Fluid description of collisional current filamentation instability of a weakly ionized plasma in the presence of magnetic field

In this paper, the collisional filamentation instability of an electron beam-weakly magnetized and ionized plasma has been investigated in the presence of background plasma, using the fluid description. By describing the equilibrium configuration in the presence of binary collision terms between charged and neutral particles and using the local approximation method, the dispersion relation (DR)...

Finding Electrostatics modes in Metal Thin Films by using of Quantum Hydrodynamic Model

In this paper, by using a quantum hydrodynamic plasma model which incorporates the important quantum statistical pressure and electron diffraction force, we present the corrected plasmon dispersion relation for graphene which includes a k quantum term arising from the collective electron density wave interference effects (which  is integer and constant and k is wave vector). The longitudinal ...

Wave Propagation in Rectangular Nanoplates Based on a New Strain Gradient Elasticity Theory with Considering in-Plane Magnetic Field

In this paper, on the basis of a new strain gradient elasticity theory, wave propagation in rectangular nanoplates by considering in-plane magnetic field is studied. This strain gradient theory has two gradient parameters and has the ability to compare with the nonlocal elasticity theory. From the best knowledge of author, it is the first time that this theory is used for investigating wave pro...
