The Quantum-Mechanical Model of an Atom02:45

The Quantum-Mechanical Model of an Atom

42.4K
Shortly after de Broglie published his ideas that the electron in a hydrogen atom could be better thought of as being a circular standing wave instead of a particle moving in quantized circular orbits, Erwin Schrödinger extended de Broglie’s work by deriving what is now known as the Schrödinger equation. When Schrödinger applied his equation to hydrogen-like atoms, he was able to reproduce Bohr’s expression for the energy and, thus, the Rydberg formula governing hydrogen spectra.

In the macroscopic world, objects that are large enough to be seen by the naked eye follow the rules of classical physics. A billiard ball moving on a table will behave like a particle; it will continue traveling in a straight line unless it collides with another ball, or it is acted on by some other force, such as friction. The ball has a well-defined position and velocity or well-defined momentum, p = mv, which is defined by mass m and velocity v at any given moment. This is the typical...

¹H NMR: Long-Range Coupling

1.8K
The coupling interactions of nuclei across four or more bonds are usually weak, with J values less than 1 Hz. While these are usually not observed in spectra, the presence of multiple bonds along the coupling pathway can result in observable long-range coupling.
In alkenes, spin information is communicated via σ–π overlap, as seen in allylic (four-bond) and homoallylic (five-bond) couplings. These coupling interactions are stronger when the σ bond is parallel to the alkene...

¹H NMR: Interpreting Distorted and Overlapping Signals

1.0K
Spin systems where the difference in chemical shifts of the coupled nuclei is greater than ten times J are called first-order spin systems. These nuclei are weakly coupled, and their chemical shifts and coupling constant can generally be estimated from the well-separated signals in the spectrum.
As Δν decreases and the signals move closer, the doublets appear increasingly distorted. The intensities of the inner lines increase at the cost of those of the outer lines as the signals are...

Area of Science:

  • Quantum Information Science
  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Quantum Simulation

Background:

  • Entanglement is crucial in quantum many-body systems, but its structure is challenging to uncover in large systems.
  • The entanglement Hamiltonian (EH) offers an effective description of reduced density operators for large subsystems.
  • Experimental verification of theoretical predictions regarding entanglement structure is a key goal.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To experimentally investigate the entanglement structure of quantum many-body systems using the entanglement Hamiltonian.
  • To test fundamental predictions of quantum field theory in the context of lattice models.
  • To explore the scaling of entanglement entropy in ground and excited states.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a 51-ion programmable quantum simulator to prepare ground and excited states of a 1D XXZ Heisenberg chain.
  • Employed sample-efficient 'learning' techniques to determine the entanglement Hamiltonian for subsystems up to 20 lattice sites.
  • Analyzed the structure of the entanglement Hamiltonian and the scaling of von Neumann entanglement entropies.

Main Results:

  • Provided compelling experimental evidence for a local structure of the entanglement Hamiltonian.
  • Confirmed fundamental predictions of quantum field theory (Bisognano-Wichmann theorems) adapted to lattice models.
  • Observed a transition from area-law to volume-law scaling of entanglement entropies between ground and excited states.
  • Demonstrated that the reduced quantum state forms a Gibbs ensemble with a spatially varying temperature profile, a signature of entanglement.

Conclusions:

  • The experimental confirmation of local entanglement Hamiltonian structure validates theoretical predictions in quantum matter.
  • The observed entanglement entropy scaling transitions offer insights into the nature of entanglement in different quantum states.
  • The developed methods and findings are broadly applicable to studying entanglement in complex many-body systems, potentially aiding in the pursuit of quantum advantage.
