Single-photon transport in a one dimentional waveguide coupling to a hybrid atom-optomechanical system

We explore theoretically the single-photon transport in a single-mode waveguide that is coupled to a hybrid atom-optomechanical system in a strong optomechanical coupling regime. Using a full quantum real-space approach, transmission and reflection coefficients of the propagating single-photon in the waveguide are ob- tained. The influences of atom-cavity detuning and the dissipation of atom on the transport are also studied. Intriguingly, the obtained spectral features can reveal the strong light-matter interaction in this hybrid system.Comment: 7pages, 8figure

Resonant chambers for suspending materials in air

Acoustical pressure of standing wave is used to suspend materials inside resonant chambers. Material is driven to standing-wave antinodes where pressure is lowest. Pressure at nodes is greatest, which prevents suspended material from collecting there. Material can be moved inside chambers by changing wave patterns

Magnetic spin excitations in diluted ferromagnetic systems: the case of Ga1−xMnxAsGa_{1-x}Mn_{x}As

We propose a theory which allow to calculate the magnetic excitation spectrum in diluted ferromagnetic systems. The approach is rather general and based on the Self-Consistent local Random Phase Approximation in which disorder (dilution) and thermal fluctuations are properly treated. To illustrate its reliability and accuracy we calculate the magnetic excitation in the diluted III-V magnetic semiconductor $Ga_{1-x}Mn_{x}As$. It is shown that dilution has a drastic effect on the excitation spectrum, indeed well defined magnon excitations exist only in a small region of the Brillouin zone centered around the $\Gamma$ point. We also calculate the spin stiffness in optimally annealed sample as a function of $Mn^{2+}$ concentration. A comparison to available measurements is done. We find a very good agreement for both the Curie temperature and the spin stiffness measured in well annealed samples and provide a plausible explanation for the very small values measured in as grown samples.Comment: The manuscript has been modified, 4 figures are included.
