Properties of an electron in a quantum double well driven by a strong laser: Localization, low-frequency, and even-harmonic generation

R Bavli, H Metiu - Physical Review A, 1993 - APS
We study how a strong semi-infinite laser pulse affects an electron confined by a potential
whose parameters mimic an AlAs-GaAs-AlAs double quantum well. Interesting phenomena …

Strongly driven quantum wells: an analytical solution to the time-dependent Schrödinger equation

M Wagner - Physical review letters, 1996 - APS
An analytical solution is found for the lowest Floquet state in a single quantum well which is
strongly driven by an external laser field of form eFz cos ω t. The spectral weights of the …

Control of molecular chirality

J Shao, P Hänggi - The Journal of chemical physics, 1997 - pubs.aip.org
We present a theoretical study of controlling molecular chirality in chemical reactions by
circularly polarized fields. A theory of absolute asymmetric synthesis is formulated by …

Cooperative effects in the nonlinearly driven spin-boson system

M Grifoni, M Sassetti, P Hänggi, U Weiss - Physical Review E, 1995 - APS
We study the quantum dynamics of a periodically driven biased two-state system which
additionally is subject to either Ohmic or to frequency-dependent damping. Within the …

Driven tunnelling with dissipation

T Dittrich, B Oelschlägel, P Hänggi - Europhysics Letters, 1993 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the quantal dynamics of a harmonically driven quartic double well in the presence
of dissipation. A master equation for the reduced density operator is derived in the Floquet …

Quantum dynamics in strong fluctuating fields

I Goychuk, P Hänggi - Advances in Physics, 2005 - Taylor & Francis
A large number of multifaceted quantum transport processes in molecular systems and
physical nanosystems, such as eg nonadiabatic electron transfer in proteins, can be treated …

Coherent and incoherent chaotic tunneling near singlet-doublet crossings

S Kohler, R Utermann, P Hänggi, T Dittrich - Physical Review E, 1998 - APS
In the spectrum of systems showing chaos-assisted tunneling, three-state crossings are
formed when a chaotic singlet intersects a tunnel doublet. We study the dissipative quantum …

Tunneling and the onset of chaos in a driven bistable system

R Utermann, T Dittrich, P Hänggi - Physical Review E, 1994 - APS
We study the interplay between coherent transport by tunneling and diffusive transport
through classically chaotic phase-space regions, as it is reflected in the Floquet spectrum of …

Dynamics of a two-level system with Ohmic dissipation in a time-dependent field

Y Dakhnovskii - Physical Review B, 1994 - APS
Dynamics of a two-level system with Ohmic dissipation driven by a time-dependent cw field
in the noninteracting-blip approximation are studied. It is found that at low temperatures …
