Generation of Pair Coherent States in Two-dimensional Trapped Ion
2001
We consider a two-dimensional (2D) trapped ion model in which two laser beams drive the corresponding vibrational motions and are carrier resonant with the two-level of the ion. Due to the coherent superposition of two sub-Rabi oscillations involved in the bimodal vibrations, the Rabi frequency degeneration and offset may occur in this model. This provides the possibility of generating the pair coherent state in the 2D trapped ion.
Coherent and squeezed vibrations for discrete variable harmonic oscillators
2009
In this work we study different types of coherent and squeezed states for the Charlier, Kravchuk and Meixner oscillators. We calculate the average values of different observables corresponding to the coherent states. We found that the coherent and squeezed states of the Kravchuk oscillator are unstable. There are also coherent and squeezed states that are similar to the coherent and squeezed states of the harmonic oscillator. We have introduced a discrete variable model for the biophoton coherent radiation, and the coherent thermal and squeezed thermal states. © 2009 Taylor & Francis.
From atomic to molecular Bose-Einstein condensates: a physically realizable term-crossing model for cold atom association
2010
Using an exact third-order NL di®erential equation for the molecular state probability, we develop a variational approach which enables us to construct highly accurate analytic approximations describing time dynamics of the coupled atom-molecular system in each of the interaction regimes. We show that the approximation describing time evolution of the molecular state probability both in the weak interaction limit and in the large detuning regime of the strong interaction limit can be written as a sum of two distinct terms; the ¯rst one, being a solution to a limit ¯rst-order NL equation, e®ectively describes the process of the molecule formation while the second one, being a scaled solution…
Raman Scattering in CuCl under Pressure
1999
Raman spectra of CuCl were measured under hydrostatic pressures up to 14 GPa at low temperatures (T = 5 K). The anomaly in the Raman lineshape of zincblende CuCl at frequencies near the transverse-optic (TO) mode, which consists of a broad structure with several maxima, disappears at a pressure near 3 GPa. This effect is well reproduced by a model calculation of the anharmonic coupling of the TO mode to acoustic two-phonon states (Fermi resonance). Alternative interpretations of the TO Raman anomaly in terms of local vibrational modes of Cu atoms in off-center positions are not supported by the present results. Raman spectra indicate the existence of the phase CuCl-IIa in a narrow pressure …
Vibrational properties of ZnTe at high pressures
2002
Raman spectra of ZnTe were measured under hydrostatic pressures up to 15 GPa at T = 300 K. Results for the frequencies of first- and second-order Raman features of the zincblende phase (0-9.5 GPa) are used to set up a rigid-ion model of the phonon dispersion relations under pressure. Calculated phonon densities of states, mode Gruneisen parameters and the thermal expansion coefficient as a function of pressure are discussed. The effect of pressure on the widths and intensities of Raman spectral features is considered. Raman spectra of high-pressure phases of ZnTe are reported. These spectra indicate the possible existence of a new phase near 13 GPa, intermediate between the cinnabar and ort…
Fast Response Vibration Sensor Based on Bragg Gratings Written on Tapered Core Fibers
2006
Bragg gratings written in tapered core fibers are used to measure mechanical vibrations with a time response better than 10 μs. The system is compact, low-cost and can be wavelength multiplexed.

ATHENA is a Large high energy astrophysics space mission selected by ESA in the Cosmic Vision 2015-2025 Science Program. It will be equipped with two interchangeable focal plane detectors: the X-Ray Integral Field Unit (X-IFU) and the Wide Field Imager (WFI). Both detectors require x-ray transparent filters to fully exploit their sensitivity. In order to maximize the X-ray tra…
Theoretical absorption spectrum of the Ar–CO van der Waals complex
2003
The three-dimensional intermolecular electric dipole moment surface of Ar–CO is calculated at the coupled cluster singles and doubles level of theory with the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set extended with a 3s3p2d1f1g set of midbond functions. Using the rovibrational energies and wave functions of our recent study [J. Chem. Phys. 117, 6562 (2002)], temperature-dependent spectral intensities are evaluated and compared to available experimental data. Based on the theoretical spectrum, alternative assignments of the experimentally observed lines in the fundamental band of CO around 2160 and 2166 cm−1 are suggested. Thomas.Bondo@uv.es
Macroscopic and microscopic study of the planar vibrational mode coupling
1999
We investigate the planar vibrational modes (PVMs) of a structure consisting of two parallel slabs of a strange atom (X) inserted in a matrix of a binary material (AB). The study of the coupling of the PVMs has been undertaken with two different approaches. In the first model, the structure is described from a macroscopic point of view, characterizing the physical properties of the constitutive materials by their layer densities, dielectric constants and strain tensors. Adequate boundary conditions are imposed at the material interfaces to obtain the vibrational modes of the structure. In the second model, the study of the planar modes is undertaken from a microscopic point of view, by usin…
The temperature dependence of vibronic lineshapes: linear electron-phonon coupling.
2014
We calculate the effect of a linear electron-phonon coupling on vibronic transitions of dye molecules of arbitrary complexity. With the assumption of known vibronic frequencies (for instance from quantum-chemical calculations), we give expressions for the absorption or emission lineshapes in a second-order cumulant expansion. We show that the results coincide with those obtained from generalized Redfield theory if one uses the time-local version of the theory and applies the secular approximation. Furthermore, the theory allows to go beyond the Huang-Rhys approximation and can be used to incorporate Dushinsky effects in the treatment of the temperature dependence of optical spectra. We cons…
