Effective potential for composite operators and for an auxiliary scalar field in a Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model
We derive the effective potentials for composite operators in a
Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model at zero and finite temperature and show that in
each case they are equivalent to the corresponding effective potentials based
on an auxiliary scalar field. The both effective potentials could lead to the
same possible spontaneous breaking and restoration of symmetries including
chiral symmetry if the momentum cutoff in the loop integrals is large enough,
and can be transformed to each other when the Schwinger-Dyson (SD) equation of
the dynamical fermion mass from the fermion-antifermion vacuum (or thermal)
condensates is used. The results also generally indicate that two effective
potentials with the same single order parameter but rather different
mathematical expressions can still be considered physically equivalent if the
SD equation corresponding to the extreme value conditions of the two potentials
have the same form.Comment: 7 pages, no figur
Infrared Hall conductivity of NaCoO
We report infrared Hall conductivity of
NaCoO thin films determined from Faraday rotation angle
measurements. exhibits two types of hole
conduction, Drude and incoherent carriers. The coherent Drude carrier shows a
large renormalized mass and Fermi liquid-like behavior of Hall scattering rate,
. The spectral weight is suppressed and disappears at T
= 120K. The incoherent carrier response is centered at mid-IR frequency and
shifts to lower energy with increasing T. Infrared Hall constant is positive
and almost independent of temperature in sharp contrast with the dc-Hall
constant.Comment: 5 Pages, 5 Figures. Author list corrected in metadata only, paper is

Superconductivity-induced Phonon Renormalization on NaFeCoAs
We report a study of the lattice dynamics in superconducting NaFeAs (Tc = 8
K) and doped NaFe0.97Co0.03As (Tc = 20 K) using Raman light scattering. Five of
the six phonon modes expected from group theory are observed. In contrast with
results obtained on iso-structural and iso-electronic LiFeAs, anomalous
broadening of Eg(As) and A1g(Na) modes upon cooling is observed in both
samples. In addition, in the Co-doped sample, a superconductivity-induced
renormalization of the frequency and linewidth of the B1g(Fe) vibration is
observed. This renormalization can not be understood within a single band and
simple multi-band approaches. A theoretical model that includes the effects of
SDW correlations along with sign-changing s-wave pairing state and interband
scattering has been developed to explain the observed behavior of the B1g(Fe)
mode.Comment: 10 pages; 6 figure
Collapse arrest and soliton stabilization in nonlocal nonlinear media
We investigate the properties of localized waves in systems governed by
nonlocal nonlinear Schrodinger type equations. We prove rigorously by bounding
the Hamiltonian that nonlocality of the nonlinearity prevents collapse in,
e.g., Bose-Einstein condensates and optical Kerr media in all physical
dimensions. The nonlocal nonlinear response must be symmetric, but can be of
completely arbitrary shape. We use variational techniques to find the soliton
solutions and illustrate the stabilizing effect of nonlocality.Comment: 4 pages with 3 figure
Dynamic Fano Resonance of Quasienergy Excitons in Superlattices
The dynamic Fano resonance (DFR) between discrete quasienergy excitons and
sidebands of their ionization continua is predicted and investigated in dc- and
ac-driven semiconductor superlattices. This DFR, well controlled by the ac
field, delocalizes the excitons and opens an intrinsic decay channel in
nonlinear four-wave mixing signals.Comment: 4pages, 4figure
