Nonequilibrium steady state transport via the reduced density matrix operator.
We present a very simple model for numerically describing the steady state dynamics of a system interacting with continua of states representing a bath. Our model can be applied to equilibrium and nonequilibrium problems. For a one-state system coupled to two free electron reservoirs, our results match the Landauer formula for current traveling through a molecule. More significantly, we can als...
متن کاملNonequilibrium effects in superconducting necks of nanoscopic dimensions
We have fabricated superconducting connecting necks of Pb with a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) and studied their properties under magnetic fields near the transition to the resistive state. A striking phenomenology is found with two well defined conduction regimes as a function of the magnetic field. We discuss the possible origin of this behavior in terms of the interplay between the fie...
متن کاملNanoscopic spontaneous motion of liquid trains: Nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulation.
Macroscale experiments show that a train of two immiscible liquid drops, a bislug, can spontaneously move in a capillary tube because of surface tension asymmetries. We use molecular dynamics simulation of Lennard-Jones fluids to demonstrate this phenomenon for NVT ensembles in submicron tubes. We deliberately tune the strength of intermolecular forces and control the velocity of bislug in diff...
متن کاملContinuously Diagonalized Density Operator of Open Systems
We showed several years ago that the density operator of Markovian open systems can be diagonalized continuously in time. The resulting pure state jump processes correspond to quantum trajectories proposed in recent quantum optics calculations or, at fundamental level, to exact consistent histories. The quantum state of an open quantum system — actually a subsystem of a closed one — cannot be d...
متن کاملDynamical vertex approximation for nanoscopic systems.
With an increasing complexity of nanoscopic systems and the modeling thereof, new theoretical tools are needed for a reliable calculation of complex systems with strong electronic correlations. To this end, we propose a new approach based on the recently introduced dynamical vertex approximation. We demonstrate its reliability already on the one-particle vertex (i.e., dynamical mean field theor...
