Number-phase quantization of a mesoscopic RLC circuit

With the help of the time-dependent Lagrangian for a damped harmonic oscillator, the quantization of mesoscopic RLC circuit in the context of a number-phase quantization scheme is realized and the corresponding Hamiltonian operator is obtained. Then the evolution of the charge number and phase difference across the capacity are obtained. It is shown that the number-phase analysis is useful to tackle the quantization of some mesoscopic circuits and dynamical equations of the corresponding operators.

Invariants and Quantum Fluctuations of a Mesoscopic RLC Circuit in a Squeezed State and Squeezed Number State

The invariants for a mesoscopic RLC circuit with a power source are studied and used to construct the squeezed states and squeezed number states for the system. The quantum fluctuations of the mesoscopic RLC circuit in the squeezed states and squeezed number states are also investigated.

The Squeezing Effect in a Mesoscopic RLC Circuit

Using the path integral method we derive quantum wave function and quantum fluctuations of charge andcurrent in the mesoscopic RLC circuit. We find that the quantum fluctuation of charge decreases with time, oppositely,the quantum fluctuation of current increases with time monotonously. Therefore there is a squeezing effect in the circuit.If some more charge devices are used in the mesoscopic-damped circuit, the quantum noise can be reduced. We also findthat uncertainty relation of charge and current periodically varies with the period π/2 in the under-damped case.

Quantum fluctuations of mesoscopic damped double resonance RLC circuit with mutual capacitance-inductance coupling

Based on the scheme of damped harmonic oscillator quantization and thermo-field dynamics （TFD）, the quantization of mesoscopic damped double resonance RLC circuit with mutual capacitance-inductance coupling is proposed. The quantum fluctuations of charge and current of each loop in a squeezed vacuum state are studied in the thermal excitation case. It is shown that the fluctuations not only depend on circuit inherent parameters, but also rely on excitation quantum number and squeezing parameter. Moreover, due to the finite environmental temperature and damped resistance, the fluctuations increase with the temperature rising, and decay with time.

Evolution of Quantum State for Mesoscopic Circuits with Dissipation

Based on the maximum entropy principle, we present a density matrix of mesoscopic RLC circuit to make it possible to analyze the connection of the initial condition with temperature. Our results show that the quantum state evolution is closely related to the initial condition, and that the system evolves to generalized coherent state if it is in ground state initially, and evolves to squeezed state if it is in excited state initially.

Solving Quantum—Nonautonomous System with Non—Hermitian Hanmiltonians by Algebraic Method

A convenient method to exactly solve the quantum-nonautonomous systems with non-Hermitian Hamiltonians is proposed. It is shown that a nonadiabatic complete biorthonormal set can be easily obtained by the gauge transformation method in which the algebraic structure of systems has been used. The nonunitary evolution operator is also found by choosing a special gauge function. All auxiliary parameters introduced in the present approach are only determined by some algebraic equations. The dynamics of two quantum-nonautonomous systems ruled by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, including a two-photon ionization process involving two-state only and a mesoscopic RLC circuit with a source, are treated as the demonstration of our general approach.
