Electron dynamics in a 2D nanobubble: A two-level system based on spatial density
arXiv:2111.09237 · doi:10.1021/acs.nanolett.1c02864
Abstract
Nanobubbles formed in monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) on top of a substrate feature localized potentials, in which electrons can be captured. We show that the captured electronic density can exhibit a non-trivial spatiotemporal dynamics, whose movements can be mapped to states in a two-level system illustrated as points of an electronic Poincaré sphere. These states can be fully controlled, i.e, initialized and switched, by multiple electronic wave packets. Our results could be the foundation for novel implementations of quantum circuits.
