研究目的
Investigating the quantum Zeno effect in the Auger process to slow down system dynamics via repeated measurements for spectroscopy on longer timescales.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that the Auger lifetime of an atom can be increased due to the quantum Zeno effect, with a proposed protocol based on periodic driving of a bound-bound transition during Auger decay. The effect is measurable in systems like Li and Li+, suggesting the feasibility of 'time-stretched spectroscopy' for studying relaxation dynamics on artificially longer timescales.
研究不足
The study focuses on a spinless model for computational convenience, which may not fully capture all aspects of Auger physics compared to the spinful case. The protocol's effectiveness is constrained by the system's lifetimes and transition energies.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The protocol involves periodic driving of a bound-bound transition during Auger decay with pulsed or continuous radiation.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The study considers a model atomic system with two spinless electrons entering Auger decay, specifically the Li atom and a hollow Li+ ion.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A classical time-dependent light field E(t) treated in the dipole approximation is used.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The dynamics are determined by an effective Hamiltonian, and the Schr?dinger equation is solved with the Lanczos algorithm to monitor Auger decay in time.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The Auger line shape is calculated via the time-dependent populations of the continuum states.
