研究目的
Investigating the dynamics of a quantum particle in a periodic potential under an homogeneous external field, focusing on the existence of families of stationary (metastable) states with associated energies displaced on regular ladders, the so-called Stark–Wannier ladders, and the wave function performing Bloch oscillations.
研究成果
The paper demonstrates that in the limit of large periodic potential, the Stark–Wannier ladders of the linear equation become a dense energy spectrum due to a cascade of bifurcations of stationary solutions. This occurs when the ratio between the effective nonlinearity strength and the tilt of the external field increases.
研究不足
The study assumes a smooth, real-valued, periodic and nonnegative function for the periodic potential and a smooth real-valued function for the Stark-type potential with compact support. The analysis is limited to the semiclassical regime of small h.
