摘要

This paper presents an exact Grassmann stochastic Schrodinger equation for the dynamics of an open fermionic quantum system coupled to a reservoir consisting of a finite or infinite number of fermions. We use this stochastic Schrodinger equation as a generic open system tool to derive the exact master equation for an electronic system strongly coupled to fermionic reservoirs. The generality and applicability of this Grassmann stochastic approach are justified and exemplified by several quantum fermionic system problems concerning quantum coherence coupled to vacuum or finite-temperature fermionic reservoirs. Our studies show that the quantum coherence property of a quantum dot system can be profoundly modified by the environmental memory.
