Numerical calculation on the RbCI TQW, as the example, is performed. The expressions for the effective mass of the polaron as a function of the vibration frequency, the velocity, the Coulomb bound potential and the electron areal density are derived. Numerical results show that the total effective mass of the polaron is composed of three parts. The interactions between the orbit and the spin with different directions have different effects on the effective mass of the bound polaron.展开更多

From a proper coordinate transformation, the formalism of the Schroedinger equation with position-dependent effective mass is mapped into isospectral one with constant mass and therefore for a given mass distribution and physical potential function the bound state energy spectrum can be determined easily by above method associated with a simple integral formula. It is shown that our method can give the analytical results for some exactly-solvable quantum systems.展开更多

In the paper we calculate the accurate anisotropy valance bands and the splitting energy between light and heavy hole bands. The results show that the valance bands are highly distorted, and the anisotropy is more obvious. To obtain the density of states （DOS） effective mass, which is a very important parameter for device modeling, a DOS effective mass model of biaxial tensile strained Si is constructed based on the valance band calculation. This model can be directly used in the device model of metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor （MOSFET）. It also a provides valuable reference for biaxial tensile strained silicon MOSFET design.展开更多

It is found that the wave function is comprised of a phase factor times the solution to the unperturbed time-dependent Schr6dinger equation with the latter being translated by a time-dependent value that satisfies the classical driven equation of motion. The wave function reduces to that of the harmonic potential theorem wave function when both the effective mass and frequency are static. An example of application is also given.展开更多

A useful expression for effective mass was obtained. Unfortunately this expression showed that the effective mass vanishes in the ab-sence of the external field. This is in conflict with observations which show that it reduces to the ordinary mass. To cure this defect a new model is developed assuming the existence of vacuum force as verified experimentally as shown by Casimir effect. Using Newton’s second law and the quantum expression of momentum, useful expressions were found. The same expression was found using generalized special relativity. Strikingly the three models reduced to the conventional one in the absence of vacuum, they also reduced to the ordinary electron mass in the absence of all forces.展开更多

We propose to reduce the electrical sizes of metamaterials down to more sub-wavelength scales by lowering the plasma frequencies of metallic wires. The theoretical model is firstly established by analyzing the plasma frequency of continuous thin wires. By introducing more inductance elements, the effective electron mass can be enhanced drastically, leading to significantly lowered plasma frequencies. Based on this theory, we demonstrate that both the electric and the magnetic plasma frequencies of metamaterials can be lowered significantly and thus the electrical sizes of metamaterials can be reduced to more sub-wavelength scales. This provides an efficient route to deep sub-wavelength metamaterials and will give rigorous impetus for the further development of practical metamaterials.展开更多

The theoretical model is firstly established by analyzing the plasma frequency of continuous thin wires. By introducing more inductance elements, the effective electron mass can be enhanced drastically, leading to significantly lowered plasma frequencies. Based on this theory, we demonstrate that both the electric and the magnetic plasma frequencies of metamaterials can be lowered significantly and thus the electrical sizes of metamaterials can be reduced to more sub-wavelength scales. This provides an efficient route to deep sub-wavelength metamaterials and will give rigorous impetus for the further development of practical metamaterials.

文摘The interpretability of machine learning reveals associations between input features and predicted physical properties in models,which are essential for discovering new materials.However,previous works were mainly devoted to algorithm improvement,while the essential multi-scale characteristics are not well addressed.This paper introduces distortion modes of oxygen octahedrons as cross-scale structural features to bridge chemical compositions and material properties.Combining modelagnostic interpretation methods,we are able to achieve interpretability even using simple machine learning schemes and develop a predictive model of effective mass for a widely used material type,namely perovskite oxides.With this framework,we reach the interpretability of the model,understanding the trend of the effective mass without any prior background information.Moreover,we obtained the knowledge only available to experts,i.e.,the interpretation of effective mass from the sep orbitals hybridization of B-site cations and O^(2-)in ABO_(3)perovskite oxides.

文摘From a Bayesian analysis of the electric dipole polarizability,the constrained energy of isovector giant dipole resonance,the peak energy of isocalar giant quadrupole resonance,and the constrained energy of isocalar gi-ant monopole resonance in 208Pb,we extract the isoscalar and isovector effective masses in nuclear matter at satura-tion density ρ0 as m^(*)_(s.0)/m=0.87^(+)_(-004) and m^(*)_(v.0)/m=0.78^(+006)_(-006),respectively,at 90%confdence level.The con-straints obtained on m^(*)_(d.0) and m^(*)_(v.0) lead to a positive isospin splitting of nucleon effective mass in asymmetric nuclear matter of isospin asymmetry σ at ρ0 as m^(*)_(n-p)/m=(0.20^(0.15)_(0.14)σ.In addition,the symmetry energy at the subsatura-tion density ρ^(*)=0.05 fm^(-3) is determined to be E_(sym)(ρ^(*))=16.7±1.3 MeV at 90%confidence level.

文摘It has been proved that the thermoelectric performance of p-type SnSe crystals can be optimized through enhancing carrier concentration.The calculations of electronic band structure elucidate that this approach can be interpreted by including multiple valence bands.To better estimate the potential performance,we proposed the transport properties for p-type SnSe crystals and analyzed the weighted mobility from the experimental results.The weighted mobility approaches~600 cm^(2)V1s1 when the carrier concentration is as high as~6.31019 cm3.Combined with obtained lattice thermal conductivity,through rising carrier concentration,the quality factor B possesses significant improvements of~235%and 138%at 300 K and 773 K,respectively.Through comparing weighted mobility and Hall mobility,two effective mass values~0.9 me and 1.8 me can be derived using carrier concentrations.It is expected that the ZT~1.0 at 300K and ZT~2.9 at 773 K can be obtained when the carrier concentration of~8.01019 cm3 and the effective mass~1.8 me were selected.This work provides an alternative way to comprehend the performance optimization in thermoelectric community.
