Real-Space Density-Matrix Description of Dynamic Correlations in the Optical Response of Many-Electron Systems

  • Chapter
Nonlinear Optical Materials

Part of the book series: The IMA Volumes in Mathematics and its Applications ((IMA,volume 101))

Abstract

A real-space formulation of the Quantum Bogolyubov-Born-Green-Kirkwood-Yvon (QBBGKY)-hierarchy is worked out in a form particularly suitable for applications to the optical response of many-electron systems. Comparison is made to Coupled-Cluster approaches. A new hierarchy of contraction-free correlation functions is presented, that overcomes the problem of violated trace relation inherent in the truncated QBBGKY-hierarchy.

In this book, the cluster decomposition is used to truncate the hierarchy of equations of motion for a direct semiconductor. In practical application to these systems, the decoupling procedure is usually followed by a series of further simplifying steps finally leading to the so called scattering contributions to the semiconductor Bloch equations (see also [58]).
