Abstract

The relative contributions of the anharmonicity of the lattice potential and the nonequilibrium concentration of charge carriers to the time dependence of the coherent A{sub 1g} phonon frequency in bismuth excited by high-energy ultrashort laser pulses are studied by the coherent control method. The contributions are separated by the pump-probe method in which excitation is performed by two pulses with a controlled time delay. It is shown that, depending on the relative delay between the pump pulses, both correlation and anticorrelation between the amplitude and the initial frequency of oscillations are observed while the chirp and the initial frequency of the coherent phonon are anticorrelated. In addition, it has been found that the contributions of the lattice and the electronic subsystem are always anticorrelated. Therefore, a certain phase can be assigned to an electronic excitation and it may be suggested that the time dependence of the phonon frequency is determined not only by instantaneous values of the lattice and electronic response but also by the phase relations between them.

Investigation of the dependence of the coherent dynamics of a bismuth lattice on the crystal excitation level

Journal Article Misochko, O. V., E-mail: misochko@issp.ac.ru ; Lebedev, M. V. - Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics

Fully symmetric coherent phonons in bismuth have been investigated in a wide range of pumppulse energies by the pump-probe method using femtosecond laser pulses. It has been shown that in the linear regime, which is implemented only for low pump intensities, the coherent amplitude is proportional to the pump intensity, whereas the relaxation rate of the coherent state and its frequency remain unchanged. In the nonlinear regime, which can be divided into superlinear and sublinear regions, the relaxation rate of a photoinduced lattice state can be approximated by a two-component response, where only one component depends strongly on the pumpmore »« less

Effects of photon losses on phase estimation near the Heisenberg limit using coherent light and squeezed vacuum

Journal Article Ono, Takafumi ; Hofmann, Holger F. ; JST, CREST, Sanbancho 5, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 102-0075 - Physical Review. A

Two-path interferometry with coherent states and a squeezed vacuum can achieve phase sensitivities close to the Heisenberg limit when the average photon number of the squeezed vacuum is close to the average photon number of the coherent light. Here, we investigate the phase sensitivity of such states in the presence of photon losses. It is shown that the Cramer-Rao bound of phase sensitivity can be achieved experimentally by using a weak local oscillator and photon counting in the output. The phase sensitivity is then given by the Fisher information F of the state. In the limit of high squeezing, themore »« less

Study of iron structure stability in high temperature molten lead-bismuth eutectic with oxygen injection using molecular dynamics simulation

Journal Article Arkundato, Artoto ; Su'ud, Zaki ; Sudarko ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

Corrosion of structural materials in high temperature molten lead-bismuth eutectic is a major problem for design of PbBi cooled reactor. One technique to inhibit corrosion process is to inject oxygen into coolant. In this paper we study and focus on a way of inhibiting the corrosion of iron using molecular dynamics method. For the simulation results we concluded that effective corrosion inhibition of iron may be achieved by injection 0.0532 wt% to 0.1156 wt% oxygen into liquid lead-bismuth. At this oxygen concentration the structure of iron material will be maintained at about 70% in bcc crystal structure during interaction withmore » liquid metal.« less

Bound states in two-dimensional spin systems near the Ising limit: A quantum finite-lattice study

Journal Article Dusuel, Sebastien ; Kamfor, Michael ; Schmidt, Kai Phillip ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

We analyze the properties of low-energy bound states in the transverse-field Ising model and in the XXZ model on the square lattice. To this end, we develop an optimized implementation of perturbative continuous unitary transformations. The Ising model is studied in the small-field limit which is found to be a special case of the toric code model in a magnetic field. To analyze the XXZ model, we perform a perturbative expansion about the Ising limit in order to discuss the fate of the elementary magnon excitations when approaching the Heisenberg point.

Lattice constants and expansivities of gas hydrates from 10 K up to the stability limit

Journal Article Hansen, T. C. ; Falenty, A. ; Kuhs, W. F. - Journal of Chemical Physics

The lattice constants of hydrogenated and deuterated CH{sub 4}-, CO{sub 2}-, Xe- (clathrate structure type I) and N{sub 2}-hydrates (clathrate structure type II) from 10 K up to the stability limit were established in neutron- and synchrotron diffraction experiments and were used to derive the related thermal expansivities. The following results emerge from this analysis: (1) The differences of expansivities of structure type I and II hydrates are fairly small. (2) Despite the larger guest-size of CO{sub 2} as compared to methane, CO{sub 2}-hydrate has the smaller lattice constants at low temperatures, which is ascribed to the larger attractive guest-hostmore »« less
