A multi-site variational master equation approach to dissipative energy transfer
Felix A. Pollock, Dara P. S. McCutcheon, Brendon W. Lovett +2
Unitary transformations can allow one to study open quantum systems in situations for which standard, weak-coupling type approximations are not valid. We develop here an extension…
Model of the optical emission of a driven semiconductor quantum dot: phonon-enhanced coherent scattering and off-resonant sideband narrowing
Dara P. S. McCutcheon, Ahsan Nazir
We study the crucial role played by the solid-state environment in determining the photon emission characteristics of a driven quantum dot. For resonant driving, we predict a phono…
Ground state and dynamics of the biased dissipative two-state system: Beyond variational polaron theory
Ahsan Nazir, Dara P. S. McCutcheon, Alex W. Chin
We propose a ground-state ansatz for the Ohmic spin-boson model that improves upon the variational treatment of Silbey and Harris for biased systems in the scaling limit. In partic…
