    The edge engineering of topological Bi(111) bilayer

    Full text link
    A topological insulator is a novel quantum state, characterized by symmetry-protected non-trivial edge/surface states. Our first-principle simulations show the significant effects of the chemical decoration on edge states of topological Bi(111) bilayer nanoribbon, which remove the trivial edge state and recover the Dirac linear dispersion of topological edge state. By comparing the edge states with and without chemical decoration, the Bi(111) bilayer nanoribbon offers a simple system for assessing conductance fluctuation of edge states. The chemical decoration can also modify the penetration depth and the spin texture of edge states. A low-energy effective model is proposed to explain the distinctive spin texture of Bi(111) bilayer nanoribbon, which breaks the spin-momentum orthogonality along the armchair edge.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure

    The linear and nonlinear Jaynes-Cummings model for the multiphoton transition

    Full text link
    With the Jaynes-Cummings model, we have studied the atom and light field quantum entanglement of multiphoton transition, and researched the effect of initial state superposition coefficient C1C_{1}, the transition photon number NN, the quantum discord δ\delta and the nonlinear coefficient χ\chi on the quantum entanglement degrees. We have given the quantum entanglement degrees curves with time evolution, and obtained some results, which should have been used in quantum computing and quantum information.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1404.0821, arXiv:1205.0979 by other author
