Algorithm Selection Method Based on Coupling Strength for Partitioned Analysis of Structure-Piezoelectric-Circuit Coupling

In this study, we propose an algorithm selection method based on coupling strength for the partitioned analysis ofstructure-piezoelectric-circuit coupling, which includes two types of coupling or inverse and direct piezoelectriccoupling and direct piezoelectric and circuit coupling. In the proposed method, implicit and explicit formulationsare used for strong and weak coupling, respectively. Three feasible partitioned algorithms are generated, namely(1) a strongly coupled algorithm that uses a fully implicit formulation for both types of coupling, (2) a weaklycoupled algorithm that uses a fully explicit formulation for both types of coupling, and (3) a partially stronglycoupled and partially weakly coupled algorithm that uses an implicit formulation and an explicit formulation forthe two types of coupling, respectively.Numerical examples using a piezoelectric energy harvester,which is a typicalstructure-piezoelectric-circuit coupling problem, demonstrate that the proposed method selects the most costeffectivealgorithm.

Evolution of entanglement between qubits ultra-strongly coupling to a quantum oscillator

We investigate the dynamics of two qubits coupled with a quantum oscillator by using the adiabatic approximation method. We take account of the interaction between the qubits and show how the entanglement is affected by the interaction parameter. The most interesting result is that we can prolong the entanglement time or improve the entanglement degree by using an appropriate interaction parameter. As the generation and preservation of entanglement of qubits are crucial for quantum information processing, our research will be useful.

Energy Levels of Strong Coupling Magnetopolaron in Quantum Dot

By using variational method of Pekar type, we have studied the energy levels of strong coupling magnetopolaron in disk shape quantum dot(QD) and quantum well(QW). Our results show that, with the increasing magnetic field and confinement strength, the magnetopolaron binding energy of QD and QW in the ground state and in the excited state is enhanced. The limiting results of bulk type and strict two dimensional type are obtained.

The magnetopolaron binding energy in the ground state and in the excited state, as well as the resonance frequency of magnetopolaron were calculated. Their dependence on the cyclotron frequency and the confinement strength of quantum wire was depicted. The limiting case of bulk type and strict two dimensional type was discussed.

The results show that, with the increasing cyclotron frequency and the confinement strength, the magnetopolaron binding energies in both the ground state and the excited state, and the resonance frequency of magnetopolaron are enhanced. The limiting case of the bulk and strict one dimensional type is also discussed.

Importance of Three-Dimensional Piezoelectric Coupling Modeling in Quantitative Analysis of Piezoelectric Actuators

This paper demonstrates the importance of three-dimensional(3-D)piezoelectric coupling in the electromechanical behavior of piezoelectric devices using three-dimensional finite element analyses based on weak and strong coupling models for a thin cantilevered piezoelectric bimorph actuator.It is found that there is a significant difference between the strong and weak coupling solutions given by coupling direct and inverse piezoelectric effects(i.e.,piezoelectric coupling effect).In addition,there is significant longitudinal bending caused by the constraint of the inverse piezoelectric effect in the width direction at the fixed end(i.e.,3-D effect).Hence,modeling of these effects or 3-D piezoelectric coupling modeling is an electromechanical basis for the piezoelectric devices,which contributes to the accurate prediction of their behavior.

Cavity optomechanics： Manipulating photons and phonons towards the single-photon strong coupling

Cavity optomechanical systems provide powerful platforms to manipulate photons and phonons, open potential ap- plications for modern optical communications and precise measurements. With the refrigeration and ground-state cooling technologies, studies of cavity optomechanics are making significant progress towards the quantum regime including non- classical state preparation, quantum state tomography, quantum information processing, and future quantum internet. With further research, it is found that abundant physical phenomena and important applications in both classical and quan- tum regimes appeal as they have a strong optomechanical nonlinearity, which essentially depends on the single-photon optomechanical coupling strength. Thus, engineering the optomechanical interactions and improving the single-photon optomechanical coupling strength become very important subjects. In this article, we first review several mechanisms, theoretically proposed for enhancing optomechanical coupling. Then, we review the experimental progresses on enhancing optomechanical coupling by optimizing its structure and fabrication process. Finally, we review how to use novel structures and materials to enhance the optomechanical coupling strength. The manipulations of the photons and phonons at the level of strong optomechanical coupling are also summarized.

A high order energy preserving scheme for the strongly coupled nonlinear Schr¨odinger system

A high order energy preserving scheme for a strongly coupled nonlinear Schrōdinger system is roposed by using the average vector field method. The high order energy preserving scheme is applied to simulate the soliton evolution of the strongly coupled Schrōdinger system. Numerical results show that the high order energy preserving scheme can well simulate the soliton evolution, moreover, it preserves the discrete energy of the strongly coupled nonlinear Schrōdinger system exactly.

On the dielectric response function and dispersion relation in strongly coupled magnetized dusty plasmas

Using the generalized viscoelastic fluid model, we derive the dielectric response function in a strongly coupled dusty magnetoplasma which reveals two different dust acoustic（DA） wave modes in the hydrodynamic and kinetic limits. The effects of the strong interaction of dust grains and the external magnetic on these DA modes, as well as on the shear wave are examined. It is found that both the real and imaginary parts of DA waves are significantly modified in strongly coupled dusty magnetoplasmas. The implications of our results to space and laboratory dusty plasmas are briefly discussed.

Large Rabi splitting obtained in Ag‐WS2 strong‐coupling heterostructure with optical microcavity at room temperature

Manipulation of light-matter interaction is critical in modern physics, especially in the strong coupling regime, where the generated half-light, half-matter bosonic quasiparticles as polaritons are important for fundamental quantum science and applications of optoelectronics and nonlinear optics. Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are ideal platforms to investigate the strong coupling because of their huge exciton binding energy and large absorption coefficients. Further studies on strong exciton-plasmon coupling by combining TMDs with metallic nanostructures have generated broad interests in recent years. However, because of the huge plasmon radiative damping, the observation of strong coupling is significantly limited at room temperature. Here, we demonstrate that a large Rabi splitting (~300 meV) can be achieved at ambient conditions in the strong coupling regime by embedding Ag-WS2 heterostructure in an optical microcavity. The generated quasiparticle with part-plasmon, part-exciton and part-light is analyzed with Hopfield coefficients that are calculated by using three-coupled oscillator model. The resulted plasmon-exciton polaritonic hybrid states can efficiently enlarge the obtained Rabi splitting, which paves the way for the practical applications of polaritonic devices based on ultrathin materials.

Dynamics of two arbitrary qubits strongly coupled to a quantum oscillator

Using adiabatic approximation, a two arbitrary qubits Rabi model has been studied in ultra-strong coupling. The analytical expressions of the eigenvalues and the eigenvalues are obtained. They are in accordance with the numerical determined results. The dynamical behavior of the system and the evolution of entanglement have also been discussed. The collapse and revival phenomena has garnered particular attention. The influence of inconsistent coupling strength on them is studied. These results will be applied in quantum information processing.

Multiple ionization of atoms and molecules impacted by very high-q fast projectiles in the strong coupling regime(q/v > 1)

In this paper, we present a simple theoretical approach to calculate the multiple ionization of big atoms and molecules induced by very high-q fast projectiles in a strong coupling regime （q/v 〉 1）. The results obtained from this approach are in excellent agreement with the available experimental data. A probable scenario of molecular multiple ionization by fast and very high-q projectiles is discussed. The very small computational time required here and the good agreement with the existing experimental data make it a good candidate for studying the multiple ionization of complex molecules under high linear energy transfers.

Strong coupling in silver-molecular J-aggregates-silver structure sandwiched between two dielectric media

We theoretically investigate the strong coupling in silver-molecular J-aggregates-silver structure sandwiched between two dielectric media by using classical methods. Fresnel equations are employed to solve our proposed structure. The results show that both the reflection and transmission spectra show a Rabi splitting-like line shape, revealing the strong coupling phenomenon. Furthermore, the radiative angle versus incident wavelength exhibits a Fano line shape. The strong coupling phenomenon can be well tuned by controlling the surface plasmon excitation, such as the incident angle and the thickness of the silver films. Our structure has potential applications in quantum networks, optical switches, and so on.

Fluctuation theorem for entropy production at strong coupling

Fluctuation theorems have been applied successfully to any system away from thermal equilibrium,which are helpful for understanding the thermodynamic state evolution.We investigate fluctuation theorems for strong coupling between a system and its reservoir,by path-dependent definition of work and heat satisfying the first law of thermodynamics.We present the fluctuation theorems for two kinds of entropy productions.One is the informational entropy production,which is always non-negative and can be employed in either strong or weak coupling systems.The other is the thermodynamic entropy production,which differs from the informational entropy production at strong coupling by the effects regarding the reservoir.We find that,it is the negative work on the reservoir,rather than the nonequilibrium of the thermal reservoir,which invalidates the thermodynamic entropy production at strong coupling.Our results indicate that the effects from the reservoir are essential to understanding thermodynamic processes at strong coupling.

Room-temperature strong coupling between dipolar plasmon resonance in single gold nanorod and two-dimensional excitons in monolayer WSe_2

All-solid-state strong coupling systems with large vacuum Rabi splitting energy have great potential applications in future quantum information technologies, such as quantum manipulations, quantum information storage and processing,and ultrafast optical switches. Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides（TMDs） have recently been explored as excellent candidates for the observation of solid-state strong coupling phenomena. In this work, from both experimental and theoretical aspects, we explored the strong coupling effect by integrating an individual plasmonic gold nanorod into the monolayer tungsten diselenide（WSe2）. Evident anti-crossing behavior was observed from the coupled energy diagram at room temperature; a Rabi splitting energy of 98 meV was extracted.

Robust two-gap strong coupling superconductivity associated with low-lying phonon modes in pressurized Nb5Ir3O superconductors

We report robust superconducting state and gap symmetry of Nb5Ir3O via electrical transport and specific heat measurements. The analysis of specific heat manifests that Nb5Ir3O is a strongly coupled superconductor with ΔC/γnTc ~ 1.91 and double s-wave superconducting gaps of 2ΔL(0)/kBTc ~ 6.56 and 2ΔS(0)/kBTc ~ 2.36 accounting for 90% and 10%,respectively. The(Cp-γnT)/T^3 vs. T plot shows a broad peak at ~ 23 K, indicating phonon softening and the appearance of low-lying phonon mode associated with the interstitial oxygen. This behavior explains the monotonic increase of Tc in Nb5Ir3O(1-δ)by strengthening the electron-phonon coupling and enlarging the density of states at Fermi level. The Hall coefficient is temperature independent below 200 K, and changes its sign from positive to negative above 250 K, suggesting that carrier is across the hole-to electron-dominant regions and the multi-band electronic structures. On warming, the resistivity shows a gradual crossover from T^2-to T^3-dependence at a critical temperature T^*, and a broad peak at a temperature Tp. The reduced Tc under pressure is linearly correlated with lattice parameters c/a ratio and Tp, suggesting the important phonon contributions in Nb5Ir3O as a phonon-medicated superconductor. Possible physical mechanisms are proposed.

Optical strong coupling in hybrid metal-graphene metamaterial for terahertz sensing

We propose a terahertz hybrid metamaterial composed of subwavelength metallic slits and graphene plasmonic ribbons for sensing application.This special design can cause the interaction between the plasmon resonances of the metallic slits and graphene ribbons,giving rise to a strong coupling effect and Rabi splitting.Intricate balancing in the strong coupling region can be perturbed by the carrier concentration of graphene,which is subject to the analyte on its surface.Thereby,the detection of analyte can be reflected as a frequency shift of resonance in terahertz transmission spectra.The result shows that this sensor can achieve a theoretical detection limit of 325 electrons or holes per square micrometer.Meanwhile,it also works well as a refractive index sensor with the frequency sensitivity of 485 GHz/RIU.Our results may contribute to design of ultra-micro terahertz sensors.

Enhanced circular dichroism of plasmonic system in the strong coupling regime

The circular dichroism(CD) signal of a molecule is usually weak,however,a strong CD signal in optical spectrum is desirable because of its wide range of applications in biosensing,chiral photo detection,and chiral catalysis.In this work,we show that a strong chiral response can be obtained in a hybridized system consisting of an artificial chiral molecule and a nanorod in the strong coupling regime.The artificial chiral molecule is composed of six quantum dots in a helix assembly,and its CD signal arises from internal Coulomb interactions between quantum dots.The CD signal of the hybridized system is highly dependent on the Coulomb interactions and the strong coupling progress through the electromagnetic interactions.We use the coupled oscillator model to analyze strong coupling phenomenon and address that the strong coupling progress can amplify the CD signal.This work provides a scenario for designing new plasmonic nanostructures with a strong chiral optical response.
