Dynamics of a Gaussian Exciton Wave Packet in Different Optical Environments
Description
An Exciton is an excited state of an atom that can move between atoms in a lattice, and can be viewed as a quasi-particle. I studied the dynamics of an Exciton wave packet traveling along a line of atoms, and how the medium the wave packet travels in affects said dynamics, via numerical simulation.
