Reply to ‘ ‘ Comment on ‘ Dephasing of conduction electrons due to zero - point fluctuation ’ ’ ’
We point out that the central theme in the paper by Wang, Xiong, and Wang @Phys. Rev. B 61, R5090 ~2000!# is the inseparability of electron degrees of freedom and those of electromagnetic field ~EMF!. The dephasing of conduction electrons due to zero-point fluctuation ~ZPF! of EMF is because experiments probe electron degrees of freedom only. The treatment of ZPF of EMF in the above paper is ov...
متن کاملDephasing due to which path detector
We study dephasing of electrons induced by a which path detector and thus verify Bohr’s complementarity principle for fermions. We utilize a double path interferometer with two slits, with one slit being replaced by a coherent quantum dot (QD). A short one dimensional channel, in the form of a quantum point contact (QPC), in close proximity to the QD, serves as a which path detector. We find th...
متن کاملMagnetic impurity coupled to interacting conduction electrons.
We consider a magnetic impurity which interacts by hybridization with a system of weakly correlated electrons and determine the energy of the ground state by means of an 1/Nf expansion. The correlations among the conduction electrons are described by a Hubbard Hamiltonian and are treated to lowest order in the interaction strength. We find that their effect on the Kondo temperature, TK, in the ...
متن کاملSpin relaxation of conduction electrons
Prospect of building electronic devices in which electron spins store and transport information has revived interest in the spin relaxation of conduction electrons. Since spin-polarized currents cannot flow indefinitely, basic spin-electronic devices must be smaller than the distance electrons diffuse without losing its spin memory. Some recent experimental and theoretical effort has been devot...
متن کاملIs Due Principally to Electrons
This paper models damage induced by monochromatized Al Ka X-rays to organic thin films using self-assembled monolayers supported on Al, Ti, Cu, and Au. An X-ray photoelectron spectrometer is used both to conduct the X-ray irradiation and to analyze the damage. In all cases these monolayers comprised a trifluoroacetimido (CF3CONH-) group bound to the substrate through an undecyl tether to either...
