Wave packet approach to periodically driven scattering
For autonomous systems it is well known how to extract tunneling probabilities from wavepacket calculations. Here we present a corresponding approach for periodically time-dependent Hamiltonians, valid at all frequencies, field strengths, and transition ...

Transport properties of nano-devices: One-dimensional model study
A 1D model study of charge transport in nano-devices is made by comparing multi-configuration time dependent Hartree-Fock and frozen core calculations. The influence of exchange and Coulomb correlation on the tunneling current is determined.

Density dynamics from current auto-correlations at finite time- and length-scales [PDF]
We consider the increase of the spatial variance of some inhomogeneous, non-equilibrium density (particles, energy, etc.) in a periodic quantum system of condensed matter-type. This is done for a certain class of initial quantum states which is supported

Diffusion on a heptagonal lattice
We study the diffusion phenomena on the negatively curved surface made up of congruent heptagons. Unlike the usual two-dimensional plane, this structure makes the boundary increase exponentially with the distance from the center, and hence the ...

Avoiding dark states in open quantum systems by tailored initial correlations
We study the transport of excitations on a V-shaped network of three coupled two-level systems that are subjected to an environment that induces incoherent hopping between the nodes.

Photon-Number Squeezing in Circuit Quantum Electrodynamics [PDF]
A superconducting single-electron transistor (SSET) coupled to an anharmonic oscillator, e.g., a Josephson junction-L-C circuit, can drive the latter to a nonequilibrium photon number state. By biasing the SSET in a regime where the current is carried by

Molecular Wires Acting as Coherent Quantum Ratchets
The effect of laser fields on the electron transport through a molecular wire being weakly coupled to two leads is investigated. The molecular wire acts as a coherent quantum ratchet if the molecule is composed of periodically arranged, asymmetric ...

Avoided level crossing statistics in open chaotic billiards
We investigate a two-level model with a large number of open decay channels in order to describe avoided level crossing statistics in open chaotic billiards.

Quantum Shuttle in Phase Space [PDF]
We present a quantum theory of the shuttle instability in electronic transport through a nanostructure with a mechanical degree of freedom. A phase space formulation in terms of the Wigner function allows us to identify a cross-over from the tunnelling ...

Transient behavior of full counting statistics in thermal transport
The generating function of energy counting statistics is derived for phononic junction systems. It is expressed in terms of the contour-ordered self-energy of the lead with shifted arguments, $\Sigma^A(\tau, \tau') = \Sigma_L\bigl(\tau +\hbar x(\tau ...
