自第一版出版以来的11年里,量子动力学领域经历了很大的发展,第一版中描述的方法现在被广泛应用于许多不同的子领域。在这一领域已经发表了数以千计的论文,试图对其进行详尽的审查显然超出了目前的范围。在这个修订版中,我们试图包括一些现代主题的例子,主要来自我们一直活跃的研究领域。我们充分意识到,这种方法将使许多重要的主题保持不变,我们希望这些领域的领先研究人员写自己的书!1更具体地说,在我们的修订中,我们保持了前九章的基本不变,只提供了一些更新的参考文献,并更正了印刷错误。另一方面,对后九章进行了实质性的修改、重组和扩充。在描述输运现象的章节中,我们包括了一些新的主题,如超晶格中的输运、分子电子学(和非弹性相互作用)和噪声计算。我们增加了一个新的章节,描述动态Franz-Keldysh效应,它直接源于依赖于场的格林函数,最初引入该函数是为了描述半导体中的高场输运。在有关光学性质的章节中,我们强调量子动力学的概念已被证明对于分析超快半导体光谱学的新实验是非常有成效的。新版本中的一些亮点包括:屏蔽和极化子关联的飞秒增强,等离子体密度相关退相的四波混频研究,声子-等离子体混合模的飞秒形成,光诱导带隙的探测,以及短飞秒区域的非马尔可夫弛豫。这些引人入胜的新观察都不能在半经典的马尔科夫玻尔兹曼动力学的框架下被理解,但它们的描述需要证明的量子动力学理论。
During the 11 years since the first edition was published the field of quantum kinetics has experienced a great expansion, and the methods described in the first edition are now widely used in a large number of different subfields. Literally thousands of papers have been published in this area and an attempt to give an exhaustive review is clearly beyond the present scope. In this revised edition we have attempted to include some examples of modern topics, essentially from the research areas we have been active in. We are fully aware of the fact that this approach will leave many important topics untouched, and our hope is that the leading researchers in those areas write their own books! 1 More specifically, in our revision we have left the first nine chapters essentially unchanged, only supplying a few updated references, and correcting misprints. On the other hand, the last nine chapters have been substantially revised, reorganized, and expanded. In the sections describing transport phenomena we have included a number of new topics, such as transport in a superlattice, molecular electronics (and inelastic interactions), and noise calculations. We have added a new chapter, describing the dynamical Franz–Keldysh effect, which follows directly from the field-dependent Green functions, originally introduced to describe high-field transport in semiconductors. In the sections dealing with optical properties we emphasize that the concepts of quantum kinetics have proved to be extremely fruitful for the analysis of new experiments in ultrafast semiconductor spectroscopy. Some highlights included in the new edition are: The femtosecond build-up of screening and of polaron correlations, four-wave mixing studies of the plasma-density dependent dephasing, the femtosecond formation of phonon–plasmon mixed modes, detection of light-induced band gaps, and non-Markovian relaxation in the short femtosecond regime. None of these fascinating new observations can be understood in the framework of a semiclassical Markovian Boltzmann kinetics, but require for their description the theory of quantum kinetics as demonstrated
