Squeezed-state approach for phonon coupling in tunneling systems at zero temperature

Abstract: In this paper we propose a new method to study tunneling problems in the presence of phonons at zero temperature. We have found that, by taking account of the nonadiabatic effect induced by coupling with a tunneling particle, the ground states of phonons can be described by displaced squeezed states, instead of by the displaced oscillator states given in the adiabatic approximation. On one hand, in these new ground states the suppression effect of the phonon overlapping integral on the renormalized tunneling p… Show more

“…z. YE approximation to consider the retarded effect on phonons and particle. This non-adiabaticity has also been discussed by Chen et al [8] using the squeezed state approach. They found the ground states of phonons are described by the coherent displaced squeezed states inducing an extra deformation of phonons in addition to the phonon condensation.…”

“…Here the form of the phonon density is zed-' with d the dimensional number, as used by many authors. Now we apply the above results to the calculation of the renormalized tunneling order parameter A in the displaced squeezed state [8], (3.18) which shows that the calculation of the renormalized tunneling parameter needs not only the explicit form of the bare coupling constant but also the phonon density of state and other physical quantities of tunneling particle and phonon bath, such as the mass of tunneling particle and crystal atom, characteristic frequencies of the double wells. where we have used (3.12).…”

“…There is evidence that squeezing of the oscillator state is involved to some extent near the critical point. A number of authors have incorporated squeezing into variational studies of the ground state [27][28][29]38,39], and numerical calculations have shown how the squeezing parameter in the ground state scales with /ω 0 and λ/ω 0 [23,37]. The dynamics of squeezing in wave-packet evolution has been discussed by Sandu et al [40] and Larson [41].…”

“…However, with the coupling to environment the dissipative two-state system is difficult to handle analytically, which has brought much uncertainty in the interpretation of experimental data and has limited our understanding of many interesting quantum phenomena of these systems. Although the dissipative two-state system has been dealt with by means of various analytical and numerical methods, 7,8,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] with respect to the current correlation function only numerical calculation has been performed. 23 An analytical study will make it possible to have an insight into the intrinsic properties of dissipative two-state systems.…”
