On the momentum-dependence of -nuclear potentials
The momentum dependent -nucleus optical potentials are obtained based
on the relativistic mean-field theory. By considering the quarks coordinates of
meson, we introduced a momentum-dependent "form factor" to modify the
coupling vertexes. The parameters in the form factors are determined by fitting
the experimental -nucleus scattering data. It is found that the real
part of the optical potentials decrease with increasing momenta, however
the imaginary potentials increase at first with increasing momenta up to
MeV and then decrease. By comparing the calculated mean
free paths with those from / scattering data, we suggested that the
real potential depth is MeV, and the imaginary potential parameter
is MeV.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
Approximation for discrete Fourier transform and application in study of three-dimensional interacting electron gas
The discrete Fourier transform is approximated by summing over part of the
terms with corresponding weights. The approximation reduces significantly the
requirement for computer memory storage and enhances the numerical computation
efficiency with several orders without loosing accuracy. As an example, we
apply the algorithm to study the three-dimensional interacting electron gas
under the renormalized-ring-diagram approximation where the Green's function
needs to be self-consistently solved. We present the results for the chemical
potential, compressibility, free energy, entropy, and specific heat of the
system. The ground-state energy obtained by the present calculation is compared
with the existing results of Monte Carlo simulation and random-phase
approximation.Comment: 11 pages, 13 figure
Electric Transport Theory of Dirac Fermions in Graphene
Using the self-consistent Born approximation to the Dirac fermions under
finite-range impurity scatterings, we show that the current-current correlation
function is determined by four-coupled integral equations. This is very
different from the case for impurities with short-range potentials. As a test
of the present approach, we calculate the electric conductivity in graphene for
charged impurities with screened Coulomb potentials. The obtained conductivity
at zero temperature varies linearly with the carrier concentration, and the
minimum conductivity at zero doping is larger than the existing theoretical
predictions, but still smaller than that of the experimental measurement. The
overall behavior of the conductivity obtained by the present calculation at
room temperature is similar to that at zero temperature except the minimum
conductivity is slightly larger.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figure
Exploring the quantum critical behaviour in a driven Tavis-Cummings circuit
Quantum phase transitions play an important role in many-body systems and
have been a research focus in conventional condensed matter physics over the
past few decades. Artificial atoms, such as superconducting qubits that can be
individually manipulated, provide a new paradigm of realising and exploring
quantum phase transitions by engineering an on-chip quantum simulator. Here we
demonstrate experimentally the quantum critical behaviour in a
highly-controllable superconducting circuit, consisting of four qubits coupled
to a common resonator mode. By off-resonantly driving the system to renormalise
the critical spin-field coupling strength, we have observed a four-qubit
non-equilibrium quantum phase transition in a dynamical manner, i.e., we sweep
the critical coupling strength over time and monitor the four-qubit scaled
moments for a signature of a structural change of the system's eigenstates. Our
observation of the non-equilibrium quantum phase transition, which is in good
agreement with the driven Tavis-Cummings theory under decoherence, offers new
experimental approaches towards exploring quantum phase transition related
science, such as scaling behaviours, parity breaking and long-range quantum
correlations.Comment: Main text with 3 figure
First-principles study of native point defects in Bi2Se3
Using first-principles method within the framework of the density functional
theory, we study the influence of native point defect on the structural and
electronic properties of BiSe. Se vacancy in BiSe is a double
donor, and Bi vacancy is a triple acceptor. Se antisite (Se) is always
an active donor in the system because its donor level ((+1/0))
enters into the conduction band. Interestingly, Bi antisite(Bi) in
BiSe is an amphoteric dopant, acting as a donor when
0.119eV (the material is typical p-type) and as an acceptor when
0.251eV (the material is typical n-type). The formation energies
under different growth environments (such as Bi-rich or Se-rich) indicate that
under Se-rich condition, Se is the most stable native defect independent
of electron chemical potential . Under Bi-rich condition, Se vacancy
is the most stable native defect except for under the growth window as
0.262eV (the material is typical n-type) and
-0.459eV(Bi-rich), under such growth windows one
negative charged Bi is the most stable one.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figure
