Resonant Scattering and Spontaneous Emission in Dielectrics: Microscopic Derivation of Local-Field Effects
نویسنده
چکیده
Resonant classical light scattering by impurity atoms inside dielectric cubic lattices is investigated in the point-dipole limit. Modifications to resonance frequencies and linewidths are shown to be different for substitutional and interstitial impurities. Spontaneous emission rates inside dielectrics exhibit the well-known empty-cavity and Lorentz local-field factors for substitutional and interstitial atoms, respectively. The results are generalized to disordered dielectrics, indicating that the substitutional case occurs prevalently for impurity atoms. [S0031-9007(98)06814-8]

Effects of local fields on spontaneous emission in dielectric media
The local-field renormalization of the spontaneous emission rate in a dielectric is explicitly obtained from a fully microscopic quantum-electrodynamical, many-body derivation of Langevin-Bloch operator equations for two-level atoms embedded in an absorptive and dispersive, linear dielectric host. We find that the dielectric local-field enhancement of the spontaneous emission rate is smaller th...
متن کاملA New Guideline for the Allocation of Multipoles in the Multiple Multipole Method for Two Dimensional Scattering from Dielectrics
A new guideline for proper allocation of multipoles in the multiple multipole method (MMP) is proposed. In an ‘a posteriori’ approach, subspace fitting (SSF) is used to find the best location of multipole expansions for the two dimensional dielectric scattering problem. It is shown that the best location of multipole expansions (regarding their global approximating power) coincides with the med...

In this paper, we used green's function approach in microscopic theory to investigate a resonant tunneling diode (RTD). We introduced the detailed Hamiltonian for each part of the photovoltaic p-i-n system, then by calculating the green's function components in tight-binding approximation, we calculate local density of states and current-voltage characteristic of the p-i-n structure. Our result...
متن کاملSpontaneous Emission Spectrum from a Driven Three-Level Atom in a Double-Band Photonic Crystal
Abstract The spontaneous emission spectrum from a driven three-level atom placed inside a double-band photonic crystal has been investigated. We use the model which assumes the upper levels of the atomic transition are coupled via a classical driving field. The transition from one of the upper levels to lower level couples to the modes of the modified reservoir, and the transition from the oth...
متن کاملMicroscopic derivation of pion-nucleon and pion-Delta scattering lengths
A general expression for the π − N and π − ∆ scattering lengths is derived in the framework of a microscopic calculation. Annihilation, negative energy wavefunctions and spontaneous chiral symmetry are included consistently. The point-like limit is used to calculate the scattering lengths.
