Isolated electrons resting near a helium surface have a spectrum close to that of a quantum-defect atom. A precisely solvable model with Rydberg spectrum is sugguested and discussed.
We study single-electron quantum dots on helium surface created by electrodes submerged into the helium. The intradot potential is electrostatically controlled. We find the electron energy spectrum and identify relaxation mechanisms. Strong…
The system of electrons trapped in vacuum above the liquid helium surface displays the highest mobilities known in condensed matter physics. We provide a brief summary of the experimental and theoretical results obtained for this system. We…
We show that the energy levels predicted by a 1/N-expansion method for an N-dimensional Hydrogen atom in a spherical potential are always lower than the exact energy levels but monotonically converge towards their exact eigenstates for…
The energy spectrum of an electron confined to an arbitrary surface of revolution in an external magnetic field, parallel to the symmetry axis, is studied analitycally and numerically. The problem is reduced via conformal mapping to one on…
The Jaynes-Cummings model (JCM), one of the paradigms of quantum electrodynamics, was introduced to describe interaction between light and a fictitious two-level atom. Recently it was suggested that the JCM Hamiltonian can be invoked to…
Electrons trapped above the surface of helium provide a means to study many-body physics free from the randomness that comes from defects in other condensed-matter systems. Localizing an electron in an electrostatic quantum dot makes its…
It is known that homogeneous distribution of particles in Coulomb-like systems can be unstable, and spatially inhomogeneous structures can be formed. A simple method for describing such inhomogeneous systems and obtaining spacial…
We revisit the quantum-mechanical two-dimensional hydrogen atom with an electric field confined to a circular box of impenetrable wall. In order to obtain the energy spectrum we resort to the Rayleigh-Ritz method with a polynomial basis…
The properties of a special configuration of a helium-like atomic system, when both electrons are on the surface of a sphere of radius $r$, and angle $\theta$ characterizes their positions on sphere, are investigated. Unlike the previous…
The feature of interaction electrons with neutral matter attracts large attention of physicists many directions. The exchange interaction in particular leads to creating of bubbles - spherical cavities with electron in center. Good object…
We discuss alternative homogeneous electron gas systems in which a finite number $n$ of electrons are confined to a $D$-dimensional sphere. We derive the first few terms of the high-density ($r_s\to0$, where $r_s$ is the Seitz radius)…
Electrons trapped on the surface of superfluid helium have been thought of as a useful resource for quantum computing. Such electrons show long coherence of their surface-bound (Rydberg) states combined with their easy electrostatic…
Closed-orbit theory provides a general approach to the semiclassical description of photo-absorption spectra of arbitrary atoms in external fields, the simplest of which is the hydrogen atom in an electric field. Yet, despite its apparent…
Electrons on helium form a unique two-dimensional electron system on the interface of liquid helium and vacuum. On liquid helium, trapped electrons can arrange into strongly correlated states known as Wigner molecules, which can be used to…
For electrons above a superfluid helium film suspended on a specially designed dielectric substrate, $z=h(y)$, we obtain that both the transverse, along $z$, and the lateral, along $y$, quantizations are strongly enhanced due to a strong…
Helium atoms in high- and low-field-seeking Rydberg states with linear and quadratic Stark shifts have been confined in two dimensions and guided over a distance of 150 mm using time-varying inhomogeneous electric fields. This was achieved…
We present here the first experimental study of Wigner islands formed by electrons floating over helium. Electrons are trapped electrostatically in a mesoscopic structure covered with a helium film, behaving as a quantum dot. By removing…
We study the spectrum of the Dirac hamiltonian in one space dimension for a single electron in the electrostatic potential of a point nucleus, in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation where the nucleus is assumed fixed at the origin. The…
We investigate the many-body properties of a two-dimensional electron gas constrained to the surface of a sphere, a system which is physically realized in multielectron bubbles in liquid helium. A second-quantization formalism, suited for…
