Generation of spatially-separated spin entanglement in a triple quantum dot system
We propose a novel method for the creation of spatially-separated spin
entanglement by means of adiabatic passage of an external gate voltage in a
triple quantum dot system.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figure
Influence of heavy modes on perturbations in multiple field inflation
We investigate linear cosmological perturbations in multiple field
inflationary models where some of the directions are light while others are
heavy (with respect to the Hubble parameter). By integrating out the massive
degrees of freedom, we determine the multi-dimensional effective theory for the
light degrees of freedom and give explicitly the propagation matrix that
replaces the effective sound speed of the one-dimensional case. We then examine
in detail the consequences of a sudden turn along the inflationary trajectory,
in particular the possible breakdown of the low energy effective theory in case
the heavy modes are excited. Resorting to a new basis in field space, instead
of the usual adiabatic/entropic basis, we study the evolution of the
perturbations during the turn. In particular, we compute the power spectrum and
compare with the result obtained from the low energy effective theory.Comment: 24 pages, 13 figures; v2 substantial changes in sec.V; v3 matching

Hybrid exciton-polaritons in a bad microcavity containing the organic and inorganic quantum wells
We study the hybrid exciton-polaritons in a bad microcavity containing the
organic and inorganic quantum wells. The corresponding polariton states are
given. The analytical solution and the numerical result of the stationary
spectrum for the cavity field are finishedComment: 3 pages, 1 figure. appear in Communications in Theoretical Physic
Coulomb-enhanced dynamic localization and Bell state generation in coupled quantum dots
We investigate the dynamics of two interacting electrons in coupled quantum
dots driven by an AC field. We find that the two electrons can be trapped in
one of the dots by the AC field, in spite of the strong Coulomb repulsion. In
particular, we find that the interaction may enhance the localization effect.
We also demonstrate the field excitation procedure to generate the maximally
entangled Bell states. The generation time is determined by both analytic and
numerical solutions of the time dependent Schrodinger equation.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figure

Time Periodic Behavior of Multiband Superlattices in Static Electric Fields
We use an analytic perturbation expansion for the two-band system of tight
binding electrons to discuss Bloch oscillations and Zener tunneling within this
model. We make comparison with recent numerical results and predict
analytically the frequency of radiation expected from Zener tunneling,
including its disappearance, as a function of the system parameters.Comment: 12 pages, no figure include
Phase transition in the transverse Ising model using the extended coupled-cluster method
The phase transition present in the linear-chain and square-lattice cases of
the transverse Ising model is examined. The extended coupled cluster method
(ECCM) can describe both sides of the phase transition with a unified approach.
The correlation length and the excitation energy are determined. We demonstrate
the ability of the ECCM to use both the weak- and the strong-coupling starting
state in a unified approach for the study of critical behavior.Comment: 10 pages, 7 eps-figure
Quantum size effects on the perpendicular upper critical field in ultra-thin lead films
We report the thickness-dependent (in terms of atomic layers) oscillation
behavior of the perpendicular upper critical field in the
ultra-thin lead films at the reduced temperature (). Distinct
oscillations of the normal-state resistivity as a function of film thickness
have also been observed. Compared with the oscillation, the
shows a considerable large oscillation amplitude and a phase shift. The
oscillatory mean free path caused by quantum size effect plays a role in
oscillation.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Emerging and reemerging helminthiases and the public health of China.
Despite great strides in their control throughout the People's Republic of China, helminth infections remain an important public health problem. The Institute of Parasitic Diseases of the Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine, under the guidance of the Chinese Ministry of Health, completed a nationwide survey of more than 1 million people that showed the high prevalence and intensity of intestinal nematode infections; prevalence can sometimes exceed 50% in the Yangtze River valley provinces. Schistosoma japonicum is also a major cause of illness in this region. Attempts to control Chinese helminthic diseases with conventional anthelminthic drugs have been partially thwarted by high posttreatment rates of reinfection. Recently, several new human trematode pathogens have been identified. Novel approaches to chemoprophylaxis and vaccination may alleviate the public health problem caused by Chinese helminths. However, recombinant helminth vaccine development will depend on first cataloguing the extensive genetic diversity of Chinese helminths and candidate vaccine antigens. Evidence from biogeography, genetics, and systematics suggests that the genetic diversification of Chinese helminths and their vectors is an ongoing evolutionary process that began 12 million years ago near the convergence of major Asian river systems. Construction of the Three Gorges Super Dam on the Yangtze River may promote the emergence and reemergence of new helminths and their snail vector
