Quantum Ring in a Magnetic Field: High Harmonic Generation and NOT Logic Gate

Abstract

The effect of a static magnetic field on the high harmonic generation (HHG) from a quantum ring driven by one laser polarized along the x-axis is studied. The spin polarization (Formula presented.) and the temporal emission of the harmonics are studied by varying the intensity of the magnetic field and it is shown how these results have a significant technological impact in computer technology; in fact a boolean algebra can be implemented by assigning 0 and 1 values to low and high pulse intensities of the emitted harmonics and logic gates like the NOT can be created.
