We propose a distribution scheme of polarization states of a single photon over a collective-noise channel. By adding one extra photon with a fixed polarization, we can protect the state against collective noise via a parity-check measurement and postselection. While the scheme succeeds only probabilistically, it is simpler and more flexible than the schemes utilizing decoherence-free subspace. An application to the Bennett-Brassard 1984 protocol through a collective-noise channel, which is robust to the Trojan horse attack, is also given. 相似文献

Probing vacuum birefringence by phase-contrast Fourier imaging under fields of high-intensity lasers
In vacuum high-intensity lasers can cause photon–photon interaction via the process of virtual vacuum polarization which may
be measured by the phase velocity shift of photons across intense fields. In the optical frequency domain, the photon–photon
interaction is polarization-mediated described by the Euler–Heisenberg effective action. This theory predicts the vacuum birefringence
or polarization dependence of the phase velocity shift arising from nonlinear properties in quantum electrodynamics (QED).
We suggest a method to measure the vacuum birefringence under intense optical laser fields based on the absolute phase velocity
shift by phase-contrast Fourier imaging. The method may serve for observing effects even beyond the QED vacuum polarization. 相似文献

We have investigated the polarization entanglement between photon pairs generated from a biexciton in a CuCl single crystal via resonant hyperparametric scattering. The pulses of a high repetition pump are seen to provide improved statistical accuracy and the ability to test Bell's inequality. Our results clearly violate the inequality and thus manifest the quantum entanglement and nonlocality of the photon pairs. We also analyzed the quantum state of our photon pairs using quantum state tomography. 相似文献

Multiphoton entanglement concentration and quantum cryptography 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Multiphoton states from parametric down-conversion can be entangled both in polarization and photon number. Maximal high-dimensional entanglement can be concentrated postselectively from these states via photon counting. This makes them natural candidates for quantum key distribution, where the presence of more than one photon per detection interval has up to now been considered undesirable. We propose a simple multiphoton cryptography protocol for the case of low losses. 相似文献

We propose a new system of the entangled photon generation and recovery using a Gaussian pulse traveling within the nonlinear micro ring resonators, whereas the cloning feasibility of the entangled photon states via an add/drop multiplexer is also proposed. Firstly, the optimum entangled photon visibility is generated by using the Gaussian pulse in the ring resonators, where the second harmonic pulses are generated by filtering the chaotic signals. Secondly, the small amount of the transmission power is coupled by the add/drop device, whereas the entangled photon states, i.e. cloning states, are regenerated by using the polarization control unit. Results obtained have shown that the recovery entangled photon states can be made and confirmed with the initial states, which means that the cloning of entangled photon states of the initial states is plausible. The amplified entangled photon for state recovery is also discussed. 相似文献

An analysis of a new technique for quantum key distribution (QKD) using the entangled photon within a micro ring resonator is presented. The Kerr nonlinear type of light in the micro ring resonator induces the nonlinear behavior known as chaos within the device, where the superposition of the chaotic signals via a four-wave mixing type introduces the clear second-harmonic pulses. The generation of clear second-harmonic pulses is achieved by controlling the appropriate ring parameters. When the polarization control devices are applied into the system, the optimal entangle photon visibility is obtained. The condition for long-distance link is discussed, where the optimal entangled photon visibility in term of Bell's states is described. 相似文献

We propose a new concept of quantum soliton pulses generation using a soliton pulse in the micro ring resonators. Firstly, the chaotic soliton pulses are generated and circulated within the integrated micro ring resonators. Secondly, the specific second harmonic pulses are selected by using the appropriate ring parameters. The superposition of the second harmonic pulses within the micro ring devices introduces the randomly polarized photons within the micro ring device. The entangled photon visibility of the polarized photon is seen after passing the polarization control devices and projecting on the detectors. The optimum entangled photon visibility is obtained. The advantage of such a system is that the quantum repeater unit can be redundant for long distance quantum communication link, whereas the use of the system for multi-entangled photon sources and links is also available. The system degradation via the entangled photon states timing walk-off is also discussed. 相似文献

We investigate photon-number dependent cavity vacuum induced transparency and magneto-optical rotation (MOR) in a cavity quantum electrodynamics system, which consists of two cavities and an ensemble of Λ-type atoms. We demonstrate that the probe photon coupled into one cavity can be transferred to the mode of another cavity via coherent Raman scattering. The transmission, the phase shift, as well as the vacuum Rabi splitting therefore strongly depend upon the probe photon number coupled into the cavity. The photon number dependent cavity vacuum induced transparency can be extended into four-level tripod atoms, leading to photon-number dependent MOR. This can be used to separate the single photon from higher photon number components in the direction of polarization and create a deterministic single photon source. 相似文献

We demonstrate a two-qubit Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm with single photons from a single InP quantum dot. The qubits are implemented via the spatial mode and the polarization of a single photon. Our photon source is operated both under continuous and pulsed excitation, the latter allowing deterministic quantum logic by generating photons on demand with a strong suppression of two-photon events. The computation reached a success probability of up to 79%. We also exploit the concept of decoherence-free subspaces that helps to make our experimental setup robust against sources of phase noise. 相似文献

We calculate the persistent charge and spin polarization current inside a finite-width quantum ring of realistic geometry as a function of the strength of the Rashba or Dresselhaus spin-orbit interaction. The time evolution in the transient regime of the two-dimensional (2D) quantum ring connected to electrically biased semi-infinite leads is governed by a time-convolutionless non-Markovian generalized master equation. The electrons are correlated via Coulomb interaction. In addition, the ring is embedded in a photon cavity with a single mode of linearly polarized photon field, which is polarized either perpendicular or parallel to the charge transport direction. To analyze carefully the physical effects, we compare to the analytical results of the toy model of a one-dimensional (1D) ring of non-interacting electrons with spin-orbit coupling. We find a pronounced charge current dip associated with many-electron level crossings at the Aharonov-Casher phase ΔΦ = π, which can be disguised by linearly polarized light. Qualitative agreement is found for the spin polarization currents of the 1D and 2D ring. Quantitatively, however, the spin polarization currents are weaker in the more realistic 2D ring, especially for weak spin-orbit interaction, but can be considerably enhanced with the aid of a linearly polarized electromagnetic field. Specific spin polarization current symmetries relating the Dresselhaus spin-orbit interaction case to the Rashba one are found to hold for the 2D ring, which is embedded in the photon cavity. 相似文献

Prospects of measuring polarized photons emitted from a quark–gluon plasma (QGP) are discussed. In particular, the detection of a possible quark spin polarization in a QGP using circularly polarized photons emitted from the plasma is studied. Photons leave the QGP without further interaction and thus provide a primary probe for quark polarization within the QGP. We find that photon polarization cannot solely arise due to a possible QGP momentum space anisotropy, but may be enhanced due to it. In particular, for oblate momentum distributions and high photon energies, quark polarization is efficiently transfered to photon polarization. The role of competing sources of polarized photons in heavy-ion collisions is discussed. 相似文献

Polarization properties of single photons emitted by optical pumping from a single quantum dot ( QD) are studied by using a four-level system model. The model is capable of explaining the polarization uncertainty observed in single photon emission experiments. It is found that the dependence of photon emission efficiency and polarization visibility on pump power are opposite in general cases. By employing QDs with small size and strong carrier confinement, the photon polarization visibility under high pump power can be improved. In addition, embedding a QD into a well designed microcavity is also found to be favourable, whereas the trade-off between high polarization visibility and multi-photon emission is noted. 相似文献

This paper solves the problem of the interaction of an electron and positron via the field of soft and hard photons with emission
or absorption of a real photon. The interaction is interpreted as a third-order QED effect in the coordinate representation.
The role of intermediate states with positive and negative frequencies is studied. A general expression is derived for the
matrix elements of the operator of the effective electron-positron interaction energy for different types of quantum transitions.
The expression makes it possible to calculate the probabilities of the corresponding transitions in the nonrelativistic approximation.
Electric dipole transitions in the positronium atom accompanied by emission (absorption) of an optical photon are investigated.
Two-particle wave functions of the positronium atom are used to introduce the concept of polarization fields inside the positronium
atom. It is found that the polarization fields depend on the coordinates and time and on the choice of the pair of states
between which a quantum transition with emission or absorption of a photon takes place.

We propose a new system of a packet of quantum bits generation using a soliton pulse within a microring resonator. A quantum gate can be formed by using a polarization control unit incorporating into the system. The random signal and idler pairs can be formed within the photon correlation bandwidth, which can be generated, and randomly form the packet quantum bits, i.e. quantum packet switching. Each random code (logic) can be performed by combining the signal and idler of each entangled photon pair via the quantum gate. Results obtained have shown that the packet of quantum logic bits can be generated using the entangled photon pairs generated by the proposed system. 相似文献

In this paper, we present a linear optical scheme for optimal
unambiguous discrimination among nonorthogonal quantum states in
terms of the multiple-rail and polarization representation of a
single photon. In our scheme, discriminated quantum states are
expressed by using the spatial degree of freedom of a single photon
while the polarization degree of freedom of the single photon is
used to act as an auxiliary qubit. The optical components used in
our scheme are only passive linear optical elements such as
polarizing beam splitters, wave plates, polarizers, single photon
detectors, and single photon source. 相似文献

A packet of photons interacting with a two-level atom is considered. It is shown that if the atomic dipole momentum transition vector is not parallel to the photon polarization, the linear photon polarization changes into an elliptical one. The upper-bound estimation for the ratio of short and long axes of the ellipse gives 0.2. The phenomenon is of a quantum origin and caused by the action of the atom on the photon packet. 相似文献
