Nonadiabatic couplings and incipience of quantum chaos

The quantization of the electronic two site system interacting with a vibration is considered by using as the integrable reference system the decoupled oscillators resulting from the adiabatic approximation. A specific Bloch projection method is applied which demonstrates how besides some regular regions in the fine structure of the spectrum and the associated eigenvectors irregularities appear when passing from the low to the high coupling case. At the same time even for strong coupling some of the regular structure of the spectrum rooted in the adiabatic potentials is kept intact justifying the classification of this situation as incipience of quantum chaos.Comment: 16 pages including figure

Nonlinear conductivity in CaRuO3 thin films measured by short current pulses

Metals near quantum critical points have been predicted to display universal out-of equilibrium behavior in the steady current-carrying state. We have studied the non-linear conductivity of high-quality CaRuO$_3$ thin films with residual resistivity ratio up to 57 using micro-second short, high-field current pulses at low temperatures. Even for the shortest pulses of $5\mu$s, Joule heating persists, making it impossible to observe a possible universal non-linearity. Much shorter pulses are needed for the investigation of universal non-linear conductivity.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure
