The lattice consists of N equal sites and one impurity site (donor). The donor differs from other lattice sites by the on-site electron energy E and the intersite coupling C. The moving wave packet is formed from the wave function initially localized on the donor. The exact solution for the wave packet velocity and the shape is derived at different values E and C. The velocity has the maximal possible group velocity v = 2. The wave packet width grows with time -t1/3 and its amplitude decreases ,- t-1/3. The wave packet reflects multiply from the lattice ends. Analytical expressions for the wave packet front propagation and recurrence are in good agreement with numeric simulations.展开更多

Phys. Chem. A 115 5274 (2011)]. The Chebyshev real wave packet propagation method is employed to obtain the dynamical information, such as reaction probability, initial state-specified integral cross section, and thermal rate constant. It is found not only that there is a reaction threshold near 0.7 eV in both reaction probabilities and integral cross section curves, but also that both the probability and cross section increase firstly and then decrease as the collision energy increases. The existence of the resonance structure in both the probability and cross section curves is ascribed to the deep potential well. The calculation of the rate constant reveals that the reaction occurring on the potential energy surface of the ground-state HS2 is slow to take place.展开更多

This is not the view from different perspectives of an observer who simply uses different coordinate systems to describe the same physical phenomenon but rather possible geometric and topological structures that quantum particles are endowed with when they are identified with differentiable manifolds that are embedded or immersed in Euclidean spaces of higher dimension. We present our discussions in the form of Bohr model in one, two and three dimensions using linear wave equations. In one dimension, the fundamental polygon is an interval and the universal covering space is the straight line and in this case the standing wave on a finite string is transformed into the standing wave on a circle which can be applied into the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom. In two dimensions, the fundamental polygon is a square and the universal covering space is the plane and in this case, the standing wave on the square is transformed into the standing wave on different surfaces that can be formed by gluing opposite sides of the square, which include a 2-sphere, a 2-torus, a Klein bottle and a projective plane. In three dimensions, the fundamental polygon is a cube and the universal covering space is the three-dimensional Euclidean space. It is shown that a 3-torus and the manifold K?× S1?defined as the product of a Klein bottle and a circle can be constructed by gluing opposite faces of a cube. Therefore, in three-dimensions, the standing wave on a cube is transformed into the standing wave on a 3-torus or on the manifold K?× S1. We also suggest that the mathematical degeneracy may play an important role in quantum dynamics and be associated with the concept of wavefunction collapse in quantum mechanics.展开更多

It is found that the nonclassicality of MQSSs can be manipulated by changing the number of the impurities and their interaction with the BEC. It is shown that the BEC matter-wave field exhibits a collapse and revival phenomenon which reveals the quantum nature of the BEC matter-wave field. We investigate the micro-macro entanglement between the impurities and the BEC, and find enhancement of the micro-macro entanglement induced by the initial quantum coherence of the impurity atoms.展开更多

Compared to previous theoretical results, pure rotational transitions in this work achieve better agreement with the experimental data. For ro-vibrational energy transfer, it is found that quasi-resonant transitions dominate the cross sections in all cases. Furthermore, the vibrational-resolved rate constant of transition v=1→v=0 increases very quickly with the temperature from 100K to 1500K and is also in good agreement with the available experimental results.展开更多

Phys. 135 104314). The time-dependent wave packet method, which is implemented on graphics processing units, is used to calculate the differential cross sections. The influences of the collision energy on the product state-resolved integral cross sections and total differential cross sections are calculated and discussed. It is found that the products NH are predominated by the backward scattering due to the small impact parameter collisions, with only minor components being forward and sideways scattered, and have an inverted rotational distribution and no inversion in vibrational distributions; both rebound and stripping mechanisms exist in the case of high collision energies.展开更多

文摘In this study,six-dimensional(6D)time-dependent wave packet calcula-tions were employed to investigate the dissociation of HCl molecules on two bimetallic surfaces,Cu/Ag(111)and Cu/Au(111).These calculations were based on two accurate potential energy surfaces(PESs)constructed using neu-ral network methodology.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations revealed that the static barrier heights for HCl on Cu/Ag(111)and Cu/Au(111)were 0.32 eV and 0.28 eV,respectively.These values are significantly lower than the barrier height on pure Cu(111)(0.52 eV),primarily due to surface strain effects.However,it was found that the 6D dissociation probability of HCl in(v=0,1,j=0)states on Cu/Au(111)was considerably lower,despite its barrier height being 0.04 eV lower than that for Cu/Ag(111).The underlying mechanism for this observation was attributed to the non-monotonic dependence of the minimum energy path(MEP)on the molecular orientation,which was induced by charge transfer effect for HCl+Cu/Au(111).In contrast,HCl+Cu/Ag(111)exhibited a monotonic dependence.These contrasting behaviors led to dis-tinct differences in rotational alignment and excitation effects for the two reactions.

The donor differs from other lattice sites by the on-site electron energy E and the intersite coupling C. The moving wave packet is formed from the wave function initially localized on the donor. The exact solution for the wave packet velocity and the shape is derived at different values E and C. The velocity has the maximal possible group velocity v = 2. The wave packet width grows with time -t1/3 and its amplitude decreases ,- t-1/3. The wave packet reflects multiply from the lattice ends. Analytical expressions for the wave packet front propagation and recurrence are in good agreement with numeric simulations.

文摘Quantum dynamics calculations for the title reaction H(2S) + S2(X3∑g) → SH(X2П) +S(3P) are performed byusing a globally accurate double many-body expansion potential energy surface [J. Phys. Chem. A 115 5274 (2011)]. The Chebyshev real wave packet propagation method is employed to obtain the dynamical information, such as reaction probability, initial state-specified integral cross section, and thermal rate constant. It is found not only that there is a reaction threshold near 0.7 eV in both reaction probabilities and integral cross section curves, but also that both the probability and cross section increase firstly and then decrease as the collision energy increases. The existence of the resonance structure in both the probability and cross section curves is ascribed to the deep potential well. The calculation of the rate constant reveals that the reaction occurring on the potential energy surface of the ground-state HS2 is slow to take place.
文摘In this work, we discuss the topological transformation of quantum dynamics by showing the wave dynamics of a quantum particle on different types of topological structures in various dimensions from the fundamental polygons of the corresponding universal covering spaces. This is not the view from different perspectives of an observer who simply uses different coordinate systems to describe the same physical phenomenon but rather possible geometric and topological structures that quantum particles are endowed with when they are identified with differentiable manifolds that are embedded or immersed in Euclidean spaces of higher dimension. We present our discussions in the form of Bohr model in one, two and three dimensions using linear wave equations. In one dimension, the fundamental polygon is an interval and the universal covering space is the straight line and in this case the standing wave on a finite string is transformed into the standing wave on a circle which can be applied into the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom. In two dimensions, the fundamental polygon is a square and the universal covering space is the plane and in this case, the standing wave on the square is transformed into the standing wave on different surfaces that can be formed by gluing opposite sides of the square, which include a 2-sphere, a 2-torus, a Klein bottle and a projective plane. In three dimensions, the fundamental polygon is a cube and the universal covering space is the three-dimensional Euclidean space. It is shown that a 3-torus and the manifold K?× S1?defined as the product of a Klein bottle and a circle can be constructed by gluing opposite faces of a cube. Therefore, in three-dimensions, the standing wave on a cube is transformed into the standing wave on a 3-torus or on the manifold K?× S1. We also suggest that the mathematical degeneracy may play an important role in quantum dynamics and be associated with the concept of wavefunction collapse in quantum mechanics.

文摘We study the quantum dynamics of an impurity-doped Bose–Einstein condensate(BEC) system.We show how to generate the macroscopic quantum superposition states(MQSSs) of the BEC by the use of projective measurements on impurity atoms. It is found that the nonclassicality of MQSSs can be manipulated by changing the number of the impurities and their interaction with the BEC. It is shown that the BEC matter-wave field exhibits a collapse and revival phenomenon which reveals the quantum nature of the BEC matter-wave field. We investigate the micro-macro entanglement between the impurities and the BEC, and find enhancement of the micro-macro entanglement induced by the initial quantum coherence of the impurity atoms.

文摘The integral cross sections and rate constants of pure rotational and ro-vibrational energy transfer processes for the Ar-HF system are thoroughly studied by using the timeindependent close coupling method based on our newly constructed potential energy surface. Compared to previous theoretical results, pure rotational transitions in this work achieve better agreement with the experimental data. For ro-vibrational energy transfer, it is found that quasi-resonant transitions dominate the cross sections in all cases. Furthermore, the vibrational-resolved rate constant of transition v=1→v=0 increases very quickly with the temperature from 100K to 1500K and is also in good agreement with the available experimental results.
文摘We consider a simple collinear collision ofa 'classical' particle with a harmonic oscillator within quantum semiclassical model and full quantum dynamics model, in which the latter is solved analytically in squeezed state and exact diagonalization methods and acts as the exact solution of such a system. A comparison of these two models for different mass ratios between the 'classical' particle and the quantum particle is done, which gives a criterion when using the quantum-semiclassical model.

文摘The hydrogen abstraction reaction from H_(2)S by OH is of key importance in understanding of the causes of acid rain,air pollution,and climate change.In this work,the reaction OH+H_(2)S→H_(2)O+SH is investigated on a recently developed ab initio-based globally accurate potential energy surface by the time-dependent wave packet approach under a reduceddimensional model.This reaction behaves like a barrier-less reaction at low collision energies and like an activated reaction with a well-defined barrier at high collision energies.Exciting either the symmetric or antisymmetric stretching mode of the molecule H_(2)S enhances the reactivity more than exciting the bending mode,which is rationalized by the coupling strength of each normal mode with the reaction coordinate.In addition,the modespecific rate constant shows a remarkable non-Arrhenius temperature dependence.

文摘Quantum state-to-state dynamics of the N(4S) + H-2(X1+Σ) → NH(X3Σ) + H(2S) reaction is reported in an accurate novel potential energy surface constructed by Zhai et al.(2011 J. Chem. Phys. 135 104314). The time-dependent wave packet method, which is implemented on graphics processing units, is used to calculate the differential cross sections. The influences of the collision energy on the product state-resolved integral cross sections and total differential cross sections are calculated and discussed. It is found that the products NH are predominated by the backward scattering due to the small impact parameter collisions, with only minor components being forward and sideways scattered, and have an inverted rotational distribution and no inversion in vibrational distributions; both rebound and stripping mechanisms exist in the case of high collision energies.

文摘We study the non-Markovian dynamics of an open quantum system with machine learning.The observable physical quantities and their evolutions are generated by using the neural network.After the pre-training is completed,we fix the weights in the subsequent processes thus do not need the further gradient feedback.We find that the dynamical properties of physical quantities obtained by the dynamical learning are better than those obtained by the learning of Hamiltonian and time evolution operator.The dynamical learning can be applied to other quantum many-body systems,non-equilibrium statistics and random processes.

文摘The reactive collisions of nitrogen ion with hydrogen and its isotopic variations have great significance in the field of astrophysics.Herein,the state-to-state quantum time-dependent wave packet calculations of N^(+)(3P)+HD→NH^(+)/ND^(+)+D/H reaction are carried out based on the recently developed potential energy surface[Phys.Chem.Chem.Phys.2122203(2019)].The integral cross sections(ICSs)and rate coefficients of both channels are precisely determined at the state-to-state level.The results of total ICSs and rate coefficients present a dramatic preference on the ND+product over the NH^(+)product,conforming to the long-lived complex-forming mechanism.Product state-resolved ICSs indicate that both the product molecules are difficult to excite to higher vibrational states,and the ND^(+)product has a hotter rotational state distribution.Moreover,the integral cross sections and rate coefficients are precisely determined at the state-to-state level and insights are provided about the differences between the two channels.The present results would provide an important reference for the further experimental studies at the finer level for this interstellar chemical reaction.The datasets presented in this paper,including the ICSs and rate coefficients of the two products for the title reaction,are openly available at https://www.doi.org/10.57760/sciencedb.j00113.00034.

文摘According to a novel electronic ground-state potential energy surface of H2O^+(X^4 A″),we calculate the reaction probabilities and the integral cross section for the titled reaction O^++ D2→OD^++ D by the Chebyshev wave packet propagation method.The reaction probabilities in a collision-energy range of 0.0 e V–1.0 e V show an oscillatory structure for the O^++ D2 reaction due to the existence of the potential well.Compared with the results of Martinez et al.,the present integral cross section is large,which is in line with experimental data.
