Thermal solitons in nanotubes

2022

Starting from a recent proposal of a nonlinear Maxwell-Cattaneo equation for the heat transport with relaxational effects at nanoscale, in a special case of thermal-wave propagation we derive a nonlinear Schrodinger equation for the amplitudes of the heatflux perturbation. The complete integrability of the obtained equation is investigated in order to prove the existence of infinite conservation laws, as well as the existence of infinite exact solutions. In this regards, we have considered the simplest nontrivial solutions, namely, the bright and dark (thermal) solitons, which may be interesting for energy transport and for information transmission in phononic circuits.

Modulational instability and generation of self-induced transparency solitons in resonant optical fibers

2009

International audience; We consider continuous-wave propagation through a fiber doped with two-level resonant atoms, which is described by a system of nonlinear Schrodinger-Maxwell-Bloch (NLS-MB) equations. We identify the modulational instability (MI) conditions required for the generation of ultrashort pulses, in cases of both anomalous and normal GVD (group-velocity dispersion). It is shown that the self-induced transparency (SIT) induces non-conventional MI sidebands. The main result is a prediction of the existence of both bright and dark SIT solitons in the anomalous and normal GVD regimes.

The table top high frequency lasing device

2015

Atomic and molecular systems, subjected to intense laser pulse, emit typical High-Order Armonic Generation (HHG) spectra. This work aims to investigate the possibility to obtain a laser device by HHG. At this end, we analyzed the emission spectra by a molecular ion driven by a linearly polarized laser field. The temporal behaviour is obtained using the Morlet wavelets transform of emission. The results show that, after filtration of the electromagnetic radiation emitted, it is possible to select a frequency which seems to have almost constant intensity and phase. This characteristic makes possible that HHG from a molecule can be used as high frequency laser fields.

Properties of the radiation Emitted by a Laser driven quantum Ring

2015

We present the electromagnetic emission from one electron confined in a quantum ring driven by an intense laser field. We consider both a plain ring and one structured by six potential wells that produce a static tangential force. Through a suitable one-dimensional model we numerically solve the associated Schroedinger equation obtaining the correspondent time evolution of the wave-function. We show that the emission is formed by a wide plateau that can be both quasi-continuum or resolved in discrete lines. We study the dependence of the emitted spectra from the polarization status of the external laser field and in particular we concentrate on the intensity of the emitted lines and of thei…

Quantum ring: HHG spectrum control

2015

Atoms, molecules , clusters and other systems driven by a strong laser field of frequency \omega_L can emit a spectrum of laser harmonics. The high harmonics generation (HHG) phenomen is strongly affected by the symmetries of the system. It is well known that systems with rotational symmetries emit only odd harmonics. Numerous researcher make mainly attention to the possibilities to set different initial conditions in order to control the spectrum. Recently, the study of nanotechnology is hot-topics and in particular the study of very symmetric systems such as fullerene, nanoring and structured nanoring (nanoring with identical and symmetric scattering centers). Therefore, it is natural and…

Laser Assisted Atomic Ionization by a Short XUV Pulse

2015

We report on numerical results of energy spectra of photoelectrons emitted by irradiating an hydrogen atom with a relatively weak single attosecond XUV pulse in the presence of a two-color IR laser pulse. The densities of probabilities have been obtained by treating the interaction of the atom with the XUV radiation at the first order of the time-dependent perturbation theory and describing the emitted electron through the Coulomb-Volkov wavefunction. The results of the calculations agree with the ones found by numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. Specifically, we use an algorithm that implements an high recision variant of the Cranck Nicolson integration method and …

A 1D coupled Schrödinger drift-diffusion model including collisions

2005

We consider a one-dimensional coupled stationary Schroedinger drift-diffusion model for quantum semiconductor device simulations. The device domain is decomposed into a part with large quantum effects (quantum zone) and a part where quantum effects are negligible (classical zone). We give boundary conditions at the classic-quantum interface which are current preserving. Collisions within the quantum zone are introduced via a Pauli master equation. To illustrate the validity we apply the model to three resonant tunneling diodes.

High-order-harmonic generation in dimensionally reduced systems

2013

The time-dependent wave function of a nanoring driven by a laser field is obtained by exploiting the symmetries inherent to the system and used for studying the properties of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the nanoring as a function of the polarization state of the laser. The diffused radiation has the characteristics of high-order-harmonic generation. For a noncircularly polarized laser field an extension of the expected cutoff position is evident, indicating that nanorings are efficient sources of radiation. The polarization state of the emitted harmonics can be opportunely controlled by varying the parameters of the pump field. The profile of the absorbed angular moment shows t…

Laser driven structured quantum rings

2015

In this work we study harmonic emission from structured quantum rings (SQRs). In SQRs, electrons trapped in two-dimensional structures are further confined by an external potential composed of N scattering centers arranged on a circle. We build a suitable one-dimensional model Hamiltonian describing this class of systems and analytically solve the associated Schödinger equation. We find that the solution can be expressed in terms of Mathieu functions and focus on the specific case of N = 6. By exactly solving the time-dependent Schödinger equation, we then show how the harmonic response to linearly polarized lasers strongly depends on the ring physical parameters. The results illustrate how…
