  2. 1. Probing Magnetism at the Atomic Scale:  Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics Theoretical Treatise

    Author : Juan David Vasquez Jaramillo; Jonas Fransson; Rosa Lopez; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics; Magnetism; Quantum Optics; Quantum Coherence; RKKY; Colciencias; Equation of Motion; Jauho-Meir-Wingreen Formalism; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik; Physics with specialization in Quantum Chemistry; Fysik med inriktning mot kvantkemi; Physics and Astronomy specializing in Theoretical Physics; Fysik och astronomi med inriktning mot teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : Here, I present a theoretical study, based on non-equilibrium quantum statistical mechanics and on the non-equilibrium extension to the RKKY intveraction,where I investigate the emergence of magnetism at the atomic scale in adsorbed molecular complexes hosting localized spin moments, at the stake of being probed with scanning tunneling microscopy tip, and being driven by a temperature gradient and gated by an electric field. The scanning tunneling microscopy set up is modeled as a molecular junction with a magnetic molecule embedded within it, where the molecule consists in a set of electronic levels resembling the typical s-p orbitals of a metal hydride or an organometal, and a localized spin moment resembling the magnetic unit hosted by the latter and former type of molecules mentioned.

    Abstract : Complex networks are an important class of models used to describe the behaviour of a very broad category of systems which appear in different fields of science ranging from physics, biology and statistics to computer science and other disciplines. This set of models includes spin systems on a graph, neural networks, decision networks, spreading disease, financial trade, social networks and all systems which can be represented as interacting agents on some sort of graph architecture.

    Abstract : This thesis addresses three different topics on the interaction between light and matter in open quantum systems. The first topic concerns two-dimensional spectroscopy and the spectral contributions from different nonlinear action signals with a focus on how to differentiate between them. READ MORE
