Quantum-electrodynamic treatment of photoemission by a single-electron wave packet
A quantum-field-theory description of photoemission by a laser-driven single-electron wave packet is presented. We show that, when the incident light is represented with multimode coherent states then, to all orders of perturbation theory, the relative phases of the electron’s constituent momenta have no influence on the amount of scattered light. These results are extended using the Furry pict...
متن کاملPhotoemission of a single-electron wave packet in a strong laser field.
The radiation emitted by a single-electron wave packet in an intense laser field is considered. A relation between the exact quantum formulation and its classical counterpart is established via the electron's Wigner function. In particular, we show that the wave packet, even when it spreads to the scale of the wavelength of the driving laser field, cannot be treated as an extended classical cha...
متن کاملPhotoemission From A Two Electron Quantum Dot
We consider photoemision from a two-electron quantum dot and find analytic expression for the cross-section. We show that the emission cross-section from the ground state as a function of the magnetic field has sharp discontinuities corresponding to the singlet-triplet transitions for low magnetic fields and the transitions between magic numbers (2J+1) for high magnetic field. We also find the ...
متن کاملScattering of intense laser radiation by a single-electron wave packet
A quantum theoretical description of photoemission by a single laser-driven electron wave packet is presented. Energy-momentum conservation ensures that the partial emissions from individual momentum components of the electron wave packet do not interfere when the driving field is unidirectional. In other words, light scattering by an electron packet is independent of the phases of the pure mom...
متن کاملQuantum wave packet revivals
The numerical prediction, theoretical analysis, and experimental verification of the phenomenon of wave packet revivals in quantum systems has flourished over the last decade and a half. Quantum revivals are characterized by initially localized quantum states which have a short-term, quasi-classical time evolution, which then can spread significantly over several orbits, only to reform later in...
