Quantum information measures of the Aharonov-Bohm ring in uniform magnetic fields

ORAL

Abstract

Shannon quantum information entropies Sρ,γ, Fisher informations Iρ,γ and Onicescu energies Oρ,γ are calculated in the position (subscript ρ) and momentum (subscript γ) spaces for the azimuthally symmetric 2D nanoring that is placed into the combintaion of the transverse uniform magnetic field B and Aharonov-Bohm (AB) flux Φ. Position (momentum) Shannon entropy depends on the field as negative (positive) logarithm of ωeff=(ω02c2/4)1/2, with ωc being cylcotron frequency, what makes the sum Sρ+Sγ a field-independent quantity that increases with the principal n and aizmuthal m quantum numbers and satisfies entropic uncertainty relation. Position Fisher information does not depend on m, linearly increases with n and varies as ωeff whereas its Onicescu counterpart changes as 1/ωeff. The products IρIγ and OρOγ are both B-independent quantities. Dependence of the measures on the thickness of the ring is discussed. It is shown that position Shannon entropy has the same dependence on the AB flux Φ as the energy spectrum. Other analytic and numerical results for all measures are discussed too and their physical meaning is highlighted.
