The boundary value problem of mean first- passage time (MFPT) of averaged system is formulated and the energy diffusion controlled reaction rate is obtained as the inverse of MFPT. The energy diffusion controlled reaction rate in the classical Kramers bistable potential and in a two-dimensional bistable potential with a heat bath are obtained by using the proposed approach respectively. The obtained results are then compared with those from Monte Carlo simulation of original systems and from the classical Kraraers theory. It is shown that the reaction rate obtained by using the proposed approach agrees well with that from Monte Carlo simulation and is more accurate than the classical Kramers rate.展开更多
We investigate the escape behavior of systems governed by the one-dimensional nonlinear Kramers' equation δW/δt = -vδW/δx + (f'(x)/m)(δW/δv) + γδ(vW)/δv + (γκBT/m)(δ2W^μ/δv^2), where f(...We investigate the escape behavior of systems governed by the one-dimensional nonlinear Kramers' equation δW/δt = -vδW/δx + (f'(x)/m)(δW/δv) + γδ(vW)/δv + (γκBT/m)(δ2W^μ/δv^2), where f(x) is a metastable potential and μ an anomalous exponent. We obtain an expression for the transition state theory escape rate, whose predictions are in good agreement with numerical simulations. The results exhibit the anomalies due to the nonlinearity in W that the TST rate grows with T and drops as μbecomes large at a fixed T. Indeed, particles in the subdiffusive media (μ 〉 1) can escape over the barrier only when T is above a critical value, while there does not exist this confinement in the superdiffusive media (μ 〈 1).展开更多

This scheme is effective in eliminating the signal-to-signal beating interference introduced by square-law detection of a photo-detector in an SSB-OFDM-RoF link. We extensively study the influences of different carrier-to-signal power ratios(CSPRs), laser linewidths, and transmission distances on our proposed scheme. It is proved that the KK-based receiver can reduce optimal CSPR by more than 5 dB and provide about 1.1 dB gain over the conventional mixer-based receiver scheme with CSPR of 11 dB after 75 km fiber transmission.展开更多

Some significant results in diagonal case are obtained for special k in xk (k ≥2). In particular, we find the orthogonal relation 〈n1|n2〉 = δh1,n2 (k = 0), 〈n1[V'(x)|n2〉 = (En1-En2)^2〈n1|x|n2〉 (k = 1), En = (n|V'(x)x/2|n〉 + (n|V(x)|n〉 (k = 2) and -4En(n|x|n) ~ 〈n|V'(x)x^2|n〉 + 4〈n|V(x)x|n〉 =0 (k=3). The latter two formulas can be used directly to calculate the energy levels. We present useYul explicit relations for some well known physical potentials without requiring the energy spectra of quantum system.展开更多

The nondipole Hamiltonian for photoelectrons interacting with laser fields from a hydrogen-like atom is transformed into the Kramers–Henneberger frame in our model. To introduce the correction of dipole approximation, the spatial variable is kept in a vector potential (r, t), demonstrating that the breakdown of dipole approximation is the major reason for the shift of the peak in PLMD. The nondipole effects are apparent when circularly polarized lasers are adopted to ionize the atoms, and clear tendency to increase offsets is found for increasing laser intensities.展开更多
