Fermi surface evolution in the antiferromagnetic state for the electron-doped t-t'-t''-J model
By use of the slave-boson mean-field approach, we have studied the
electron-doped t-t'-t''-J model in the antiferromagnetic (AF) state. It is
found that at low doping the Fermi surface (FS) pockets appear around
and , and upon increasing doping the other ones will
form around . The evolution of the FS with
doping as well as the calculated spectral weight are consistent with the
experimental results.Comment: Fig. 4 is updated, to appear in Phys. Rev.
Theory of antiferromagnetism in the electron-doped cuprate superconductors
On the basis of the Hubbard model, we present the formulation of
antiferromagnetism in electron-doped cuprates using the fluctuation-exchange
approach. Taking into account the spin fluctuations in combination with the
impurity scattering effect due to the randomly distributed dopant-atoms, we
investigate the magnetic properties of the system. It is shown that the
antiferromagnetic transition temperature, the onset temperature of the
pseudogap formation, the single particle spectral density, and the staggered
magnetization obtained by the present approach are in very good agreement with
the experimental results. The distribution function in momentum space at very
low temperature is observed to differ significantly from that of the Fermi
liquid. Also, we find zero-energy peak in the density of states (DOS) of the
antiferromagnetic phase. This DOS peak is sharp in the low doping regime, and
disappears near the optimal doping where the AF order becomes weak.Comment: 12 pages, 19 figure
Suppressing longitudinal double-layer oscillations by using elliptically polarized laser pulses in the hole-boring radiation pressure acceleration regime
It is shown that well collimated mono-energetic ion beams with a large
particle number can be generated in the hole-boring radiation pressure
acceleration regime by using an elliptically polarized laser pulse with
appropriate theoretically determined laser polarization ratio. Due to the
effect, the double-layer charge separation region is
imbued with hot electrons that prevent ion pileup, thus suppressing the
double-layer oscillations. The proposed mechanism is well confirmed by
Particle-in-Cell simulations, and after suppressing the longitudinal
double-layer oscillations, the ion beams driven by the elliptically polarized
lasers own much better energy spectrum than those by circularly polarized
lasers.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures, Phys. Plasmas (2013) accepte
Chirality in Liquid Crystals: from Microscopic Origins to Macroscopic Structure
Molecular chirality leads to a wonderful variety of equilibrium structures,
from the simple cholesteric phase to the twist-grain-boundary phases, and it is
responsible for interesting and technologically important materials like
ferroelectric liquid crystals. This paper will review some recent advances in
our understanding of the connection between the chiral geometry of individual
molecules and the important phenomenological parameters that determine
macroscopic chiral structure. It will then consider chiral structure in
columnar systems and propose a new equilibrium phase consisting of a regular
lattice of twisted ropes.Comment: 20 pages with 6 epsf figure
Rotational Symmetry Breaking in Sodium Doped Cuprates
For reasonable parameters a hole bound to a Na^{+} acceptor in
Ca_{2-x}Na_{x}CuO_{2}Cl_{2} has a doubly degenerate ground state whose
components can be represented as states with even (odd) reflection symmetry
around the x(y) -axes. The conductance pattern for one state is anisotropic as
the tip of a tunneling microscope scans above the Cu-O-Cu bonds along the
x(y)-axes. This anisotropy is pronounced at lower voltages but is reduced at
higher voltages. Qualitative agreement with recent experiments leads us to
propose this effect as an explanation of the broken local rotational symmetry.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
Optimal Controlled Teleportation
We give the analytic expressions of maximal probabilities of successfully
controlled teleportating an unknown qubit via every kind of tripartite states.
Besides, another kind of localizable entanglement is also determined.
Furthermore, we give the sufficient and necessary condition that a three-qubit
state can be collapsed to an EPR pair by a measurement on one qubit, and
characterize the three-qubit states that can be used as quantum channel for
controlled teleporting a qubit of unknown information with unit probability and
with unit fidelity.Comment: 4 page
