Nonlinearity-assisted quantum tunnelling in a matter-wave interferometer
We investigate the nonlinearity-assisted quantum tunnelling and formation of nonlinear collective excitations in a matter-wave interferometer, which is realized by the adiabatic transformation of a double-well potential into a singlewell harmonic trap. In contrast to the linear quantum tunnelling induced by the crossing (or avoided crossing) of neighbouring energy levels, the quantum tunnelling...
متن کاملWhy macroscopic quantum tunnelling in Josephson junctions differs from tunnelling of a quantum particle
We show that the macroscopic quantum tunnelling of a fluxon in a Josephson junction cannot be described, even qualitatively, as the tunnelling of a quantum particle in a potential U(φ), where the phase difference φ plays the role of particle position, if the length of the junction d exceeds a fluxon length. We calculate the probability per unit time of tunnelling (or escape rate), Γ, which has ...
متن کاملMacroscopic quantum tunnelling in spin filter ferromagnetic Josephson junctions
The interfacial coupling of two materials with different ordered phases, such as a superconductor (S) and a ferromagnet (F), is driving new fundamental physics and innovative applications. For example, the creation of spin-filter Josephson junctions and the demonstration of triplet supercurrents have suggested the potential of a dissipationless version of spintronics based on unconventional sup...
متن کاملMacroscopic resonant tunnelling through Andreev interferometers.
We investigate the conductance through and the spectrum of ballistic chaotic quantum dots attached to two s-wave superconductors, as a function of the phase difference phi between the two order parameters. A combination of analytical techniques-random matrix theory, Nazarov's circuit theory and the trajectory-based semiclassical theory-allows us to explore the quantum-to-classical crossover in ...
متن کاملQuasi-spin Model for Macroscopic Quantum Tunnelling between Two Coupled Bose-Einstein Condensates
The system of two coupled Bose-Einstein condensates is mapped onto a uniaxial spin with an applied magnetic field. The mean-field interaction, the coupling and the asymmetry or the detuning correspond to the anisotropy, the transverse field, and the longitudinal field, respectively. A generalized Bloch equation is derived. In the low barrier limit for the quasi-spin model, the tunneling rate is...
