Control of light-induced torque in quantum well waveguides through electron spin coherence
Annotatsiya
We explore the mechanical effects of light interacting with a quantum well waveguide, specifically focusing on the emergence of quantized torque. We investigate the response of the waveguide to the influence of two intense coupling fields in conjunction with two weaker fields. We find that the electron spin coherence plays a crucial role in amplifying the torque applied to the waveguide emitters. This heightened torque, in turn, triggers a distinctive circular current flow pattern within the waveguide. Furthermore, we explore different scenarios for modulating the torque by adjusting system parameters, thereby establishing a means to control current flow. The emergence of a light-induced quantized torque not only illuminates the interplay between quantum emitters and electromagnetic fields but also opens up exciting possibilities for innovative approaches to govern induced-torque behavior within quantum well waveguides.
