Nature of the Quantum Potential

In this paper we suggested a natural interpretation of the de Broglie-Bohm quantum potential, as the energy due to the oscillating electromagnetic field (virtual photon) coupled with moving charged particle. Generalization of the Schr&oumldinger equation is obtained. The wave function is shown to be the eigenfunction of the Sturm-Liouville problem in which we expand virtual photon to include it implicitly into consideration. It is shown that the non-locality of quantum mechanics is related only with virtual photon. As an example, the zero-energy of harmonic oscillator is obtained from classical equations.

Exact solution of Schrdinger equation with q-deformed quantum potentials using Nikiforov–Uvarov method

In this paper, we present the exact solution of the one-dimensional Schrrdinger equation for the q-deformed quantum potentials via the Nikiforov-Uvarov method. The eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of these potentials are obtained via this method. The energy equations and the corresponding wave functions for some special cases of these potentials are briefly discussed. The PT-symmetry and Hermiticity for these potentials are also discussed.

Effect of Bohm quantum potential in the propagation of ion–acoustic waves in degenerate plasmas

A theoretical investigation has been carried out on the propagation of the ion–acoustic(IA) waves in a relativistic degenerate plasma containing relativistic degenerate electron and positron fluids in the presence of inertial non-relativistic light ion fluid. The Korteweg-de Vries(K-dV), modified K-dV(m K-dV), and mixed m K-dV(mm K-dV) equations are derived by adopting the reductive perturbation method. In order to analyze the basic features(phase speed, amplitude, width,etc.) of the IA solitary waves(SWs), the SWs solutions of the K-dV, m K-dV, and mm K-d V are numerically analyzed. It is found that the degenerate pressure, inclusion of the new phenomena like the Fermi temperatures and quantum mechanical effects(arising due to the quantum diffraction) of both electrons and positrons, number densities, etc., of the plasma species remarkably change the basic characteristics of the IA SWs which are found to be formed either with positive or negative potential. The implication of our results in explaining different nonlinear phenomena in astrophysical compact objects, e.g.,white dwarfs, neutron stars, etc., and laboratory plasmas like intense laser–solid matter interaction experiments, etc., are mentioned.

Negative Phase Time Effectin Potential-Well Passing

The properties of phase time taken for particles to pass through a quantum potential well are investigated. It is found in a 1 dimensional quantum mechanical problem that the phase time is negative when the incident energy and the thickness of potential well satisfy certain conditions. Similar results are also found in a 2 dimensional fully relativistic optical analog. It is shown that the expression of the la teral shift of transmitted optical waves is similar to that of the phase time in the 1 dimensional quantum mechanical problem. The phase time in the 2 dimensional optical problem is also shown to be negative under certain conditions.

The Harmonic Potential Theorem for a Quantum System with Time-Dependent Effective Mass

We investigate the many-body wave function of a quantum system with time-dependent effective mass, confined by a harmonic potential with time-dependent frequency, and perturbed by a time-dependent spatially homogeneous electric field. It is found that the wave function is comprised of a phase factor times the solution to the unperturbed time-dependent Schr6dinger equation with the latter being translated by a time-dependent value that satisfies the classical driven equation of motion. The wave function reduces to that of the harmonic potential theorem wave function when both the effective mass and frequency are static. An example of application is also given.

Single-Parameter Quantum Pumping in Graphene Nanoribbons with Staggered Sublattice Potential

We present a theoretical study of quantum charge pumping in metallic armchair graphene nanoribbons using the Floquet Green function method. A central part of the ribbon acting as the scattering region is supposed to have staggered sublattiee potential to open a finite band gap. A single ae gate is asymmetrically applied to a part of the scattering region to drive the pumping. Corresponding to the gap edges, there are two pumped current peaks with opposite current directions, which can be reversed by changing the position of the ac gate relative to the scattering region. The effects of the parameters, such as the staggered sublattice potential, the driving frequency and the geometric parameters of the structure, on the pumping are discussed.

The influence of QM effects both in real space and K space on the heat generation is investigated.

New Possibilities of Harmonic Oscillator Basis Application for Quantum System Description.Two Particles with Coulomb Interaction

This paper is addressed to the problem of Galilei invariant basis construction for identical fermions systems. The recently introduced method for spurious state elimination from expansions in harmonic oscillator basis [1] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000E0000005F005200650066003400310034003400340037003600360038000000 is adopted and applied to bound states of two particles system with Coulomb potential description. Traditional expansions in this case demonstrate the extremely well-known slow convergence, and hence this is the best problem with known exact solutions for the test of the method. Obtained results demonstrate the significant simplification of the problem and fast convergence of expansions. We show that the application of this general method is very efficient in a test case of the energy spectrum calculation problem of two particles with different masses interacting with Coulomb potential.

Effects of magnetic field on the polaron in an asymmetrical Gaussian confinement potential quantum well

The effects of a magnetic field on the vibrational frequency, the ground state energy and the ground state binding energy of a weak-coupling polaron in asymmetrical Gaussian confinement potential quantum well （AGCPQW） are investigated by using linear combination operator and unitary transformation methods. Our cal- culated results show that the vibrational frequency increases with increasing cyclotron frequency of the magnetic field; meanwhile, the absolute value of the ground state energy and the ground state binding energy decrease. The vibrational frequency, the absolute value of the ground state energy and the ground state binding energy are in- creasing functions of the barrier height of the AGCPQW. It is shown that the barrier height of the AGCPQW and the magnetic field are important factors that influence the properties of the magnetopolaron in AGCPQW.

Influence of temperature on ground state energy of bound polaron in asymmetric Gaussian potential quantum well in presence of electromagnetic field

By a combination method of Lee-Low-Pines unitary transformation method and Pekar-type variational method,the ground state energy(GSE)of the bound polaron is studied in the asymmetrical Gaussian potential quantum well considering the temperature and electromagneticfield.The impacts of the temperature and asymmetrical Gaussian potential,electromagnetic field and phonon-electron coupling upon the GSE are obtained.The results show that the GSE of the bound polaron not only oscillates as the temperature changes regardless of the electromagneticfield and asymmetrical Gaussian potential and Coulomb impurity potential(CIP)and electron-phonon coupling but also has different rules with the electromagnetic field and asymmetrical Gaussian potential and CIP and electron-phonon coupling at different temperature zones.

The properties of an asymmetric Gaussian potential quantum well qubit in RbCl crystal

With the circumstance of the electron strongly coupled to LO-phonon and using the variational method of Pekar type（VMPT）,we study the eigenenergies and the eigenfunctions（EE） of the ground and the first excited states（GFES） in a RbCl crystal asymmetric Gaussian potential quantum well（AGPQW）.It concludes：（i） Twoenergy-level of the AGPQW may be seen as a qubit.（ii） When the electron located in the superposition state of the two-energy-level system,the time evolution and the coordinate changes of the electron probability density oscillated periodically in the AGPQW with every certain period T0=22.475 fs.（iii） Due to the confinement that is a two dimensional x-y plane symmetric structure in the AGPQW and the asymmetrical Gaussian potential（AGP） in the AGPQW growth direction,the electron probability density presents only one peak configuration located in the coordinate of z 〉 0,whereas it is zero in the range of z 〈 0.（iv） The oscillatory period is a decreasing function of the AGPQW height and the polaron radius,（v） The oscillating period is a decreasing one in the confinement potential R 〈 0.24 nm,whereas it is an increasing one in the confinement potential R 〉 0.24 nm and it takes a minimum value in R = 0.24 nm.

Modified de Broglie-Bohm approach to the Schwarzschild black hole

A modified de Broglie-Bohm approach is generalized to the Schwarzschild black hole. By using this method, the quantum potential and the quantum trajectories of the black hole are investigated. And we find that the linear combination of two particular solutions of the black hole wavefunction is not physical although each of them is physical, if we think that the quantum gravity should reduce into its corresponding classical counterpart in which the gravity vanishes. It seems to confirm the argument, given by Alwis and MacIntire, that a possible resolution on the quantum gravity is to give up the superposition principle.

Iterating with Fuzzy Parameters to Produce Exact Results

Iteration problems such as compound interest calculations have well-specified parameters and aim to derive an exact value. Not all problems offer well-specified parameters, even for well-defined dynamic equations;the linear “weak field approximation” of general relativity is iteratively equivalent to Einstein’s non-linear field equation, but the exact parameters involved in some applications are unknown. This paper develops a theory based on “fuzzy” parameters that must produce exact results. The problem is analyzed and example calculations are produced.

Problems with Translational Invariance of Three-Particle Systems

A new method for calculation of non-relativistic energy spectrum of Coulomb three-body systems with two identical particles has been developed. The novelty of the method is the introduction of an expansion of the wave function on harmonic oscillator (HO) functions with different sizes in the Jacobi coordinates instead of only one unique size parameter in the traditional approach. The method presented obeys the principles of antisymmetry and translational invariance. The theoretical formulation has been illustrated by evaluation of ground state energies of a number of Coulomb three-body systems with two identical particles for zero HO excitation energy. The analytical solution of this problem in case of only one size parameter has been derived. The obtained results show significant advantage of the base with different sizes over the traditional approach for investigation of the bound state problem of quantum systems.
