Anderson and Stark localization in superlattices: Residual coupling and fine structure

Abstract

The full experimental evidence of fine structure in disordered superlattices is reported. The experimental results agree with the numerical predictions, thus indicating that this effect is related to residual coupling between adjacent identical wells in the case of Anderson localization. This feature indicates an intrinsic difference between disorder-induced and electric-field induced localization, where no spectral fine structure can be observed in the strong localization limit.

Mood disorder

A mood disorder, also known as an affective disorder, is any of a group of conditions of mental and behavioral disorder where a disturbance in the person's mood is the main underlying feature. The classification is in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) and International Classification of Diseases (ICD).

Fine structure

In atomic physics, the fine structure describes the splitting of the spectral lines of atoms due to electron spin and relativistic corrections to the non-relativistic Schrödinger equation. It was first measured precisely for the hydrogen atom by Albert A. Michelson and Edward W. Morley in 1887, laying the basis for the theoretical treatment by Arnold Sommerfeld, introducing the fine-structure constant. The gross structure of line spectra is the line spectra predicted by the quantum mechanics of non-relativistic electrons with no spin.

Factitious disorder imposed on self

Factitious disorder imposed on self, also known as Munchausen syndrome, is a factitious disorder in which those affected feign or induce disease, illness, injury, abuse, or psychological trauma to draw attention, sympathy, or reassurance to themselves. Munchausen syndrome fits within the subclass of factitious disorder with predominantly physical signs and symptoms, but patients also have a history of recurrent hospitalization, travelling, and dramatic, extremely improbable tales of their past experiences.
