Mesoscopic RLC Circuit and Its Associated Occupation Number and Berry Phase
Journal Title: Physical Science International Journal - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 3
Abstract
In this paper we consider the quantization of the time-dependent harmonic oscillator and its associated Berry phase using the invariant operator method, as well as the occupation number of the induced quasi-particle production. Furthermore, we point out that in the literature there exist different methods for determining the solution to the Milne-Pinney equation, which leads to different results. By measuring the time-dependent occupation number and associated Berry phase, one can, in principle, determine which of these methods leads to physically realized results. As a concrete example, we consider the mesoscopic RLC circuit and derive the occupation number and associated Berry phase for each of these different methods. We find that, the solution to the Ermakov equations leads to a time-dependent occupation number and associated Berry phase, while the particular solution to the Milne-Pinney equation does not.

Effect of Prandtl Number and Inclination Angle on MHD Natural Convection in Inclined Open Square Cavity
MHD natural convection and fluid flow in a two-dimensional open and inclined square cavity with a heated circular cylinder was considered in this work. The opposite wall to the opening side of the cavity was first kept t...
A Simple Relative Humidity Sensor Employing Optical Fiber Coated with Lithium Chloride
A simple optical fiber relative humidity sensor was fabricated using a lithium chloride film coated on the distal end of sensing fiber. The sensing element, lithium chloride film whose refractive index is sensitive to mo...
Maxwell Relations for Substances with Negative Thermal Expansion and Negative Compressibility
It is shown that taking into account the negative compressibility of substances changes Maxwell relations. The earlier results of the author indicating that these relations differ for substances with negative thermal exp...
