A contemporary review on the behavior of driven tunneling in quantum systems is
presented. Diverse phenomena, such as control of tunneling, higher harmonic generation …

A transition between energy levels at an avoided crossing is known as a Landau–Zener
transition. When a two-level system (TLS) is subject to periodic driving with sufficiently large …

We explore the prospects to control by use of time-dependent fields quantum transport
phenomena in nanoscale systems. In particular, we study for driven conductors the electron …

We demonstrate that the transition from a superfluid to a Mott insulator in the Bose-Hubbard
model can be induced by an oscillating force through an effective renormalization of the …

In this review we focus on electronic transport through semiconductor nanostructures which
are driven by ac fields. Along the review we describe the available experimental information …

During recent years we could bear witness to an immense research activity, both in
experimental and theoretical physics, as well as in chemistry, aimed at understanding the …

Activation processes in classical metastable systems in the presence of periodic driving
have recently become subject of growing research activity, stimulated by exciting new …

With the exception of the harmonic oscillator, quantum wave packets usually spread as time
evolves. This is due to the non-linear character of the classical equations of motion which …

Some aspects of quantum tunneling of a particle in a double-well potential periodically
driven by an external force are studied within the two-level approximation. A closed …

We report on a direct visualization of coherent destruction of tunneling (CDT) of light waves
in a double well system which provides an optical analog of quantum CDT as originally …
