Influence of diffraction on the spectrum and wave functions of an open system

Abstract: In this paper, we demonstrate the existence and significance of diffractive orbits in an open microwave billiard, both experimentally and theoretically. Orbits that diffract off of a sharp edge of the system are found to have a strong influence on the transmission spectrum of the system, especially in the regime where there are no stable classical orbits. On resonance, the wavefunctions are influenced by both classical and diffractive orbits. Off resonance, the wavefunctions are determined by the constructive … Show more

“…1(a) 17 . With this geometry the interference between incident and reflected electrons which contribute to oscillations reported previously 13,18,19 is significantly reduced because the in-cident and reflected electrons are spatially separated, thus all the features observed here are due to the coupling effect. The hybrid devices were fabricated on a high mobility two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) formed at the interface of GaAs/Al 0.33 Ga 0.67 As heterostructure.…”

“…The classical limit of the semiclassical approach has been found to be powerful enough to explain the experimental data for 2DEGs and the quantum simulations, unlike the case of open microwave billiards, where the influence of diffraction has been put in evidence [31,32].…”

“…Taking QPC1 as an example, if gate voltage V sg was applied to the bottom arm of the split gate [refers to Fig.1 (b)], V sg + ∆V would be applied to the upper arm. ∆V was kept negative so that the 1D channel shifted towards the primary axis [Fig 1(a)] instead of the tips of the lens, to avoid diffraction at the tips 25 . A short plateau-like feature, as marked by the red arrow in Fig.3(a), below 0.7-anomaly started forming with increasing ∆V similar to previous observations [19][20][21][22][23][24] .…”
