Single-particle subband structure of Quantum Cables
We proposed a model of Quantum Cable in analogy to the recently synthesized
coaxial nanocable structure [Suenaga et al. Science, 278, 653 (1997); Zhang et
al. ibid, 281, 973 (1998)], and studied its single-electron subband structure.
Our results show that the subband spectrum of Quantum Cable is different from
either double-quantum-wire (DQW) structure in two-dimensional electron gas
(2DEG) or single quantum cylinder. Besides the double degeneracy of subbands
arisen from the non-abelian mirrow reflection symmetry, interesting
quasicrossings (accidental degeneracies), anticrossings and bundlings of
Quantum Cable energy subbands are observed for some structure parameters. In
the extreme limit (barrier width tends to infinity), the normal degeneracy of
subbands different from the DQW structure is independent on the other structure
parameters.Comment: 12 pages, 9 figure
Quantum Cable as transport spectroscopy of 1D DOS of cylindrical quantum wires
We considered the proposed Quantum Cable as a kind of transport spectroscopy
of one-dimensional (1D) density of states (DOS) of cylindrical quantum wires.
By simultaneously detecting the direct current through the cylindrical quantum
wire and the leaked tunneling current into the neighboring wire at desired
temperatures, one can obtain detailed information about 1D DOS and subband
structure of cylindrical quantum wires.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures, late
Entanglement and spin squeezing properties for three bosons in two modes
We discuss the canonical form for a pure state of three identical bosons in
two modes, and classify its entanglement correlation into two types, the
analogous GHZ and the W types as well known in a system of three
distinguishable qubits. We have performed a detailed study of two important
entanglement measures for such a system, the concurrence and the
triple entanglement measure . We have also calculated explicitly the spin
squeezing parameter and the result shows that the W state is the most
``anti-squeezing'' state, for which the spin squeezing parameter cannot be
regarded as an entanglement measure.Comment: 7 pages, 6 figures; corrected figure sequence. Thanks to Dr. Han P
