Quantum diffusion on a cyclic one dimensional lattice

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The quantum diffusion of a particle in an initially localized state on a cyclic lattice with N sites is studied. Diffusion and reconstruction time are calculated. Strong differences are found for even or odd number of sites and the limit N->infinit is studied. The predictions of the model could be tested with micro - and nanotechnology devices.
