Self-consistent Maxwell-Bloch theory of quantum-dot-population switching in photonic crystals

We theoretically demonstrate the population switching of quantum dots (QD’s), modeled as two-level atoms in idealized one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals (PC’s) by self-consistent solution of the Maxwell-Bloch equations. In our semiclassical theory, energy states of the electron are quantized, and electron dynamics is described by the atomic Bloch equation, while ele...

Self-consistent theory of polymerized membranes.

We study D-dimensional polymerized membranes embedded in d dimensions using a selfconsistent screening approximation. It is exact for large d to order 1/d, for any d to order ǫ = 4−D and for d = D. For flat physical membranes (D = 2, d = 3) it predicts a roughness exponent ζ = 0.590. For phantom membranes at the crumpling transition the size exponent is ν = 0.732. It yields identical lower crit...

Self-Consistent Theory of Bose-Condensed Systems

In the theory of Bose-condensed systems, there exists the well known problem, the Hohenberg-Martin dilemma of conserving versus gapless approximations. This dilemma is analysed and it is shown that it arises because of the internal inconsistency of the standard grand ensemble, as applied to Bose-systems with broken global gauge symmetry. A solution of the problem is proposed, based on the notio...
