Quantum thermodynamics from the nonequilibrium dynamics of open systems: energy, heat capacity and the third law
Jen-Tsung Hsiang, C. H. Chou, Y. Subaşi +1
We take the perspective of open quantum systems and examine from their nonequilibrium dynamics the conditions when the physical quantities, their relations and the laws of thermody…
Surface plasmons in a metal nanowire coupled to colloidal quantum dots: Scattering properties and quantum entanglement
Guang-Yin Chen, Neill Lambert, Chung-Hsien Chou +2
We investigate coherent single surface-plasmon transport in a metal nanowire strongly coupled to two colloidal quantum dots. Analytical expressions are obtained for the transmissio…
Macroscopic Quantum Phenomena from the Correlation, Coupling and Criticality Perspectives
C H Chou, B L Hu, Y Subasi
In this sequel paper we explore how macroscopic quantum phenomena can be measured or understood from the behavior of quantum correlations which exist in a quantum system of many pa…
Macroscopic quantum phenomena from the large N perspective
C H Chou, B L Hu, Y Subasi
Macroscopic quantum phenomena (MQP) is a relatively new research venue, with exciting ongoing experiments and bright prospects, yet with surprisingly little theoretical activity. W…
Quantum Brownian Motion of a Macroscopic Object in a General Environment
Chung-Hsien Chou, B. L. Hu, Ting Yu
For the purpose of understanding the quantum behavior such as quantum decoherence, fluctuations, dissipation, entanglement and teleportation of a mesoscopic or macroscopic object i…
Exact Master Equation and Quantum Decoherence of Two Coupled Harmonic Oscillators in a General Environment
Chung-Hsien Chou, Ting Yu, B. L. Hu
In this paper we derive an exact master equation for two coupled quantum harmonic oscillators interacting via bilinear coupling with a common environment at arbitrary temperature m…
