(we have no time for these points now, but I have a handout and we can discuss them during the meeting) 1) Why do we use different explanations for different aspects of MR ? 2) Which aspects of MR are undeniably quantum and cannot be described classically ? 3) Are Bloch equations classical? Is it sensible to try derive them from quantum theory ? 4) Is electromagnetic radiation involved in magnetic resonance? If so, is it true or virtual ? 5) Does spontaneous emission from spin systems occur? If so, what are its properties ? 6) Is MR a near or a far phenomenon? Is remote excitation and/or detection possible ? 7) Can an FID be described as coherent spontaneous emission ? What about CW-NMR ? 8) How do the spins interact with nearby conductors, and with the coil ? 9) Which phenomena can be described considering an isolated spin, and which can’t ? a) What is the role of relaxation processes in all this? Are they essential or marginal ? b) What is the role of time-averaged Hamiltonians in magnetic resonance ? c) Can an FID be described as a sum of individual quantum transitions ? d) Does all this uncover some gaping holes in quantum physics ? e) Does all this tell us something about the ontology of photons ? f) Can MR throw new light on basic aspects of physics ?

Part I: Classical paradigms shared also by quantum physics Thermodynamics, Conservation Laws and (some) Statistical Physics B. Approximate quantum spin systems in a classical way A problem: everybody does this since 50 years, therefore I don’t dig it C. Part II: Quantum description of the detection/excitation devices An extra task: coupling the spin system to the detection/excitation device Stan Sykora 6th BFF 2011, Freiburg, Germany Let us forget quantum physics for a while ☺☺☺ and remember just the conservation of energy (the first law of thermodynamics) The physical system we will consider: L Loop and its Inductance R Resistance (may be distributed) J Electric current P just a Point B Magnetic Field m Magnetic Dipole B H = µ = µβ Jτττβ , where µ is the permaebility, β a constant, and τττβ a unit vector. β and τττβ depend only on the system’s geometry. m m = m τττm , where τττm is a unit vector along Stan Sykora 6th BFF 2011, Freiburg, Germany Setting up a master equation Energy terms: 2 Inductive: EL = LJ /2 2 Self-energy of m: Em = km /2 m B Interaction: Ei = - . = -κmJ , where κ = µβ (τττβ.τττm) Dissipation: dE/dt = -J2R Since R is the only dissipative element in the circuit, the energy conservation law dictates 2 dE/dt = dE L/dt + dE i/dt + dE m/dt = -J R Hence, using the apostrophe to denote time derivatives, (LJ -γm)J' - κm'J + RJ 2 +kmm' = 0 Stan Sykora 6th BFF 2011, Freiburg, Germany … a couple of useful notes … Energy terms: 2 Inductive: EL = LJ /2 2 Self-energy of m: Em = km /2 m B Interaction: Ei = - . = -γmJ , where κ = µβ (τττβ.τττm) Dissipation: dE/dt = -J2R 2 2 2 2 † Since EL = LJ /2 and also EL = ∫∫∫V|B| dτ/2 µ = µJ ∫∫∫V β dτ/2 , 2 2 we have L = µ∫∫∫V β dτ = µ<β > V showing that, upon scaling, β correlates with L1/2 The old terms coil volume and filling factor arise from here † While β is positive by definition, κ = µβ (τττβ.τττm) can be both positive or negative Stan Sykora 6th BFF 2011, Freiburg, Germany (A,B) Special cases of the master equation (LJ -γm)J' - κm'J + RJ 2 +kmm' = 0 A. When there is no magnetic dipole (m = m' = 0 ), we get 2 - (R/L) t LJJ' + RJ = 0 ⇒ LJ' + RJ = 0 ⇒ J = J 0 e This is the well-known equation of the LR-circuit . B. The term kmm' is the power needed to maintain the dipole. This is null in the case of quantum particles . It drops out also when the dipole is associated with a permanent magnet or when it is driven driven by an external device. In such cases k=0 and we have a modified master equation: LJJ' - κmJ' - κm'J + J 2R = 0 Stan Sykora 6th BFF 2011, Freiburg, Germany (C) Special cases of the modified master equation LJJ' - κmJ' - κm'J + J 2R = 0 How must the dipole evolve to maintain a constant current ? J’ = 0 The answer is that m must grow linearly with time at the rate m' = JR/ κ One can reverse the point of view and say that this is as though the linearly increasing dipole generated in the circuit the emf Vemf = JR = κm' = µβ (τττβ.τττm) m' which coincides exactly with the classical law of induction . It is easy to show that this holds also when J’≠ 0, provided the induction law is properly extended ( LJ = κm = - Φ). Stan Sykora 6th BFF 2011, Freiburg, Germany (D-E) Oscillating magnetic dipoles LJJ' - κmJ' - κm'J + J 2R = 0 D. What if the dipole is made to oscillate? Let m = m 0 exp(i ωt) and assume a solution of the type J = J 0 exp[i( ωt+ ϕ)]. Then the master equation gives J0 = 2 κω m0/|R+i ωL| and tan( ϕ) = R/ ωL. E. The amplitude of the detected current (signal) is proportional to κ and therefore also to β. Since β describes the efficiency B/J of a current J to generate the field B at point P, this proves the reciprocity theorem : The larger is the field B generated at a point P by a current J in the loop, the stronger is the detected signal due to an oscillating dipole located at P.

  • Few-Electron Ultrastrong Light-Matter Coupling in a Quantum LC Circuit
    PHYSICAL REVIEW X 4, 041031 (2014) Few-Electron Ultrastrong Light-Matter Coupling in a Quantum LC Circuit Yanko Todorov and Carlo Sirtori Université Paris Diderot, Sorbonne Paris Cité, Laboratoire Matériaux et Phénomènes Quantiques, CNRS-UMR 7162, 75013 Paris, France (Received 19 March 2014; revised manuscript received 23 October 2014; published 18 November 2014) The phenomenon of ultrastrong light-matter interaction of a two-dimensional electron gas within a lumped element electronic circuit resonator is explored. The gas is coupled through the oscillating electric field of the capacitor, and in the limit of very small capacitor volumes, the total number of electrons of the system can be reduced to only a few. One of the peculiar features of our quantum mechanical system is that its Hamiltonian evolves from the fermionic Rabi model to the bosonic Hopfield model for light-matter coupling as the number of electrons is increased. We show that the Dicke states, introduced to describe the atomic super-radiance, are the natural base to describe the crossover between the two models. Furthermore, we illustrate how the ultrastrong coupling regime in the system and the associated antiresonant terms of the quantum Hamiltonian have a fundamentally different impact in the fermionic and bosonic cases. In the intermediate regime, our system behaves like a multilevel quantum bit with nonharmonic energy spacing, owing to the particle-particle interactions. Such a system can be inserted into a technological semi- conductor platform, thus opening interesting perspectives for electronic devices where the readout of quantum electrodynamical properties is obtained via the measure of a DC current.

Introduction In Lecture 3 we completed the foundations of Dirac-notation quantum mechanics. Today we'll begin our study of the quantum harmonic oscillator, which is the quantum system that will pervade the rest of our semester's work. We'll start with a classical physics treatment and|because 6.453 is an Electrical Engineering and Computer Science subject|we'll develop our results from an LC circuit example. Classical LC Circuit Consider the undriven LC circuit shown in Fig. 1. As in Lecture 2, we shall take the state variables for this system to be the charge on its capacitor, q(t) Cv(t), and the flux through its inductor, p(t) Li(t). Furthermore, we'll consider≡ the behavior of this system for t 0 when one≡ or both of the initial state variables are non-zero, i.e., q(0) = 0 and/or≥p(0) = 0. You should already know that this circuit will then undergo simple6 harmonic motion,6 i.e., the energy stored in the circuit will slosh back and forth between being electrical (stored in the capacitor) and magnetic (stored in the inductor) as the voltage and current oscillate sinusoidally at the resonant frequency ! = 1=pLC.

However, in contrast to the known quantized models of passive circuit elements, such Received: 22 March 2016 as inductors, capacitors or resistors, the design and realization of a quantum memristor is still missing. Here, we introduce the concept of a quantum memristor as a quantum dissipative device, whose Accepted: 17 June 2016 decoherence mechanism is controlled by a continuous-measurement feedback scheme, which accounts Published: 06 July 2016 for the memory. Indeed, we provide numerical simulations showing that memory effects actually persist in the quantum regime. Our quantization method, specifically designed for superconducting circuits, may be extended to other quantum platforms, allowing for memristor-type constructions in different quantum technologies. The proposed quantum memristor is then a building block for neuromorphic quantum computation and quantum simulations of non-Markovian systems. Although they are often misused terms, the difference between information storage and memory is relevant. While the former refers to saving information in a physical device for a future use without changes, a physical sys- tem shows memory when its dynamics, usually named non-Markovian1,2, depend on the past states of the system.

  • The Dual Canonical Formalism in the Quantum Junction Systems
    THE DUAL CANONICAL FORMALISM IN THE QUANTUM JUNCTION SYSTEMS MORISHIGE YONEDA∗,MASAAKI NIWA† AND MITSUYA MOTOHASHI‡ We have constructed a theory of dual canonical formalism, to study the quantum dual systems. In such a system, as the relationship between current and voltage of each, we assumed the duality conditions. As a simple example, we examined the duality between the SC(superconductor)/SI(superinsulator)/SC(superconductor) junction and its reverse SI/SC/SI junction. We derived the relationship between the phase and the number of particles in a dual system of each other. Keywords:duality, quantum junction systems, SC/SI/SC junction, SI/SC/SI junction 1 Introduction The duality has been known to be a powerful tool in various physical systems such as statistical mechanics[1] and field theory[2],[3]. Furthermore, the duality has been also known in several studies of the Josephson junction systems[4],[5].In superconducting systems, the general Josephson junction are known as the quan- tum effect devices[6],[7] which operates by using the Cooper-pair tunneling. Fur- thermore, the mesoscopic Josephson junction can be used as a quantum effect devices which operates by using the single Cooper-pair tunneling created by a Coulomb blockade[8]. In contrast, the mesoscopic dual Josephson junction systems are known as the quantum effect devices which operates by using the single quantum vortex(quantum flux) tunneling[9]. The Cooper-pair and the quantum vortex are known as the duality relation to each other[10],[11]. That is, under certain conditions, even if we replace the role of Cooper pairs and vortices, these systems satisfy the equation of similar type.

Introduction In Lecture 3 we completed the foundations of Dirac-notation quantum mechanics. Today we’ll begin our study of the quantum harmonic oscillator, which is the quantum system that will pervade the rest of our semester’s work. We’ll start with a classical physics treatment and—because 6.453 is an Electrical Engineering and Computer Science subject—we’ll develop our results from an LC circuit example. Classical LC Circuit Consider the undriven LC circuit shown in Fig. 1. As in Lecture 2, we shall take the state variables for this system to be the charge on its capacitor, q(t) = Cv(t), and the flux through its inductor, p(t) Li(t). Furthermore, we’ll consider the behavior of this system for t 0 when one ≡or both of the initial state variables are non-zero, i.e., q(t) = 0 and/or≥ p(0) = 0.
