光子晶体微腔中高偏振单偶极模的研究

三角晶格排列的光子晶体微腔中的偶极模式是简并的,通过改变其晶格的对称性可以消除模式简并.晶格的整体形变破坏了晶格对称性从而影响光场的分布,同时还改变了电磁场的偏振分布.晶格整体形变使得简并的偶极模式分离成x极和y极偶极模式.通过计算分析发现分离后的模式具有良好的偏振特性,从而为实现单偏振光子晶体激光器提供了一种很好的途径.文中针对光子晶体薄板结构的微腔,主要计算了偶极模中x极偶极模式在不同拉伸时以及不同填充因子情况下的Q值,并分别计算了x关键词： 光子晶体 偶极模 品质因子 偏振度

基于调制光晶格的中性分子束光学Stark减速与囚禁的理论研究

本文基于分子束光学Stark减速理论,提出采用调制的红失谐光晶格来减速和囚禁任意脉冲超声分子束方案,并予以理论研究.以CH₄超声分子束为例,利用Monte-Carlo方法模拟了调制光晶格中的分子减速与囚禁的动力学过程,给出减速级数、同步分子初始位相角与减速效果的关系.研究结果表明：随着减速级数的增加,被减速的分子波包逐渐从原来的分子速度分布的大波包中分离开来,且减速级数越高,减速后的分子速度越小.在其他条件相同时同步分子初始位相角越大,减速波包内的分子数目越少,同时位相空间被压缩.与未调制的光晶格减速方案相比,本方案中无分子自由飞行过程,在相同的光晶格长度内完成了双倍的减速级数.当光晶格长度取3.71 mm时,模拟结果显示CH₄分子从280 m/s减速至172 m/s,而未调制光晶格只能将CH₄分子从280 m/s减速至232 m/s,减速效果提高了26%.本方案可以集分子的减速、囚禁于一体,是一种新型的分子光学功能器件,在冷分子光学、量子信息、冷化学等前沿研究领域中有潜在的应用.

多色部分相干偏心光束在non-Kolmogorov湍流中的传输

推导了多色部分相干偏心光束在non-Kolmogorov 湍流中传输的总光强、轴上光谱、相干度的解析表达式, 研究了光束偏心参数β 、湍流广义指数α和源光谱带宽Ω对激光传输特性的影响. 研究表明: β越大, 则光束重心偏离传输轴越远, 相干度的不对称性越明显, 但是, β对轴上光谱几乎没有影响; 湍流广义指数α对总光强、 轴上光谱和相干长度的影响是非单调的, 当α=3.1时, 湍流对光束传输特性的影响最大. 值得指出的是: 在某些传输距离处, 不同α对应的轴上光谱位移量相同; 在某些传输距离处, 轴上光谱位移量为零, 且该传输距离与Ω无关, 但湍流使得该传输距离缩短. 所得结论对多色部分相干偏心光束在 湍流大气中传输的相关应用具有重要意义. 关键词： non-Kolmogorov湍流 多色部分相干偏心光束 光谱强度 相干度

采用嵌入原子方法的原子间相互作用势,利用分子动力学模拟,详细研究不同角度入射的载能Ni原子在Pt(111)基体表面的沉积过程.结果表明,随着入射角度θ从0°增加到80°,溅射产额、表面吸附原子产额、空位产额的变化情况均可按入射角度近似地分为θ≤20°,20° < θ < 60°和θ≥60°三个区域.当θ≤20°时,载能沉积对基体表面的影响与垂直入射时的情况类似,表面吸附原子的分布较为集中,入射原子容易达到基体表面第二层及以下,对基体内部晶格产生-定的影响;在20° < θ < 60°的范围内,入射原子的注入深度有所下降,对基体内部晶格的影响减小,表面吸附原子的分布较为均匀,有利于薄膜的均匀成核与层状生长;当θ≥60°时,所有入射原子均直接被基体表面反射,表面吸附原子产额、溅射产额、表面空位产额均接近0,载能沉积作用没有体现.

Evolution of a two-mode squeezed vacuum for amplitude decay via continuous-variable entangled state approach

Extending the recent work completed by Fan et al. [Front. Phys. 9(1), 74 (2014)] to a two-mode case, we investigate how a two-mode squeezed vacuum evolves when it undergoes a two-mode amplitude dissipative channel, with the same decay rate κ, using the continuous-variable entangled state approach. Our analytical results show that the initial pure-squeezed vacuum state evolves into a definite mixed state with entanglement and squeezing, decaying over time as a result of amplitude decay. We also investigate the time evolutions of the photon number distribution, the Wigner function, and the optical tomogram in this channel. Our results indicate that the evolved photon number distribution is related to Jacobi polynomials, the Wigner function has a standard Gaussian distribution (corresponding to the vacuum) at long periods, losing its nonclassicality due to amplitude decay, and a larger squeezing leads to a longer decay time.     

Resource reduction for simultaneous generation of two types of continuous variable nonclassical states

We demonstrate experimentally the simultaneous generation and detection of two types of continuous variable nonclassical states from one type-0 phase-matching optical parametric amplification (OPA) and subsequent two ring filter cavities (RFCs). The output field of the OPA includes the baseband ω₀ and sideband modes ω₀±nω_fsubjects to the cavity resonance condition, which are separated by two cascaded RFCs. The first RFC resonates with half the pump wavelength ω₀ and the transmitted baseband component is a squeezed state. The reflected fields of the first RFC, including the sideband modes ω₀±ω_f, are separated by the second RFC, construct Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen entangled state. All freedoms, including the filter cavities for sideband separation and relative phases for the measurements of these sidebands, are actively stabilized. The noise variance of squeezed states is 10.2 dB below the shot noise limit (SNL), the correlation variances of both quadrature amplitude-sum and quadrature phase-difference for the entanglement state are 10.0 dB below the corresponding SNL.     

用不变本征算符法求晶面吸附原子的振动模

晶体表面的扩散和缺陷对晶体振动模式的影响是表面物理学研究的一个重要和基本的课题.晶格振动的频率对应于系统的能带.由于晶格中原子的振动不是孤立的,并且晶格具有周期性,所以在晶体中形成格波.格波代表晶体中所有原子都参与的频率相同的振动,又常称为一种振动模.本文讨论在表面吸附位势系数β_0与晶体内部原子的周期位势系数β不同的情况下,晶体表面吸附一个质量为m_0(与晶格原子质量m不同)的原子以后晶格的振动模.采用不变本征算符方法,严格地导出此振动模为ω=((2β(1-coshα))/(hm))~(1/2),其中α=ln[-(mβ_0+m_0(-2β+β_0)+(β_0)~(1/2)((-4mm_0β+(m+m_0)~2β_0))~(1/2)/2m_0β].此结果表明,ω不但取决于吸附位势与吸附原子的质量,也与晶格原子的质量与内位势有关.     

内腔多原子直接俘获的强耦合腔量子力学系统的构建

腔内中性原子的长时间控制与俘获一直是腔量子电动力学(QED)中的一个难题,极大地制约了人们相干操控单原子及其与光相互作用的研究.基于传统Fabry-Perot光学腔,设计了一套易于内腔原子操控的强耦合腔QED系统,其典型参数为:腔长3.5 mm精细度约为57000,(g0,κ,γ)=2π×(1.48,0.375,2.61)MHz,临界光子数和原子数分别为1.54和0.89.该系统的特点是:能够在腔内直接实现冷原子磁光阱,并建立腔内光学晶格,实现腔内可控数目的中性原子的长时间俘获.通过合理选择构建光学偶极阱和原子成像系统,可实现对腔内单个原子或原子阵列的操控、探测、成像等.该系统可以克服传统腔QED系统中转移原子的困难,大幅增加腔内原子的寿命,为构建以腔QED系统为基础的量子信息演示平台提供了一种可能.

Entanglement measures of a new type pseudo-pure state in accelerated frames

In this work we analyze the characteristics of quantum entanglement of the Dirac field in noninertial reference frames in the context of a new type pseudo-pure state, which is composed of the Bell states. This will help us to understand the relationship between the relativity and quantum information theory. Some states will be changed from entangled states into separable ones around the critical value F = 1/4, but there is no such a critical value for the variable y related to acceleration a. We find that the negativity N_ABI (ρ^TA_ABI) increases with F but decreases with the variable y, while the variation of the negativity N_BIBII(ρ^TA_ABI) is opposite to that of the negativity N_ABI (ρ^TA_ABI). We also study the von Neumann entropies S(ρ_ABI) and S(ρ_BIBII). We find that the S(ρ_ABI) increases with variable y but S(ρ_BIBII) is independent of it. However, both S(ρ_ABI) and S(ρ_BIBII) first decreases with F and then increases with it. The concurrences C(ρ_ABI) and C(ρ_BIBII) are also discussed. We find that the former decreases with y while the latter increases with y but both of them first increase with F and then decrease with it.     

An all-optical phase detector by amplitude modulation of the local field in a Rydberg atom-based mixer

Recently, a Rydberg atom-based mixer was developed to measure the phase of a radio frequency (RF) field. The phase of the signal RF (SIG RF) field is down-converted directly to the phase of a beat signal created by the presence of a local RF (LO RF) field. In this study, we propose that the Rydberg atom-based mixer can be converted to an all-optical phase detector by amplitude modulation (AM) of the LO RF field; that is, the phase of the SIG RF field is related to both the amplitude and phase of the beat signal. When the AM frequency of the LO RF field is the same as the frequency of the beat signal, the beat signal will further interfere with the AM of the LO RF field inside the atom, and then the amplitude of the beat signal is related to the phase of the SIG RF field. The amplitude of the beat signal and the phase of the SIG RF field show a linear relationship within the range of 0 to π/2 when the phase of the AM is set with a difference π/4 from the phase of the LO RF field. The minimum phase resolution can be as small as 0.6° by optimizing the experimental conditions according to a simple theoretical model. This study will expand and contribute to the development of RF measurement devices based on Rydberg atoms.     

Generation of diffraction-free vectorial elliptic hollow beams with space-varying inhomogeneous polarizations

Diffraction-free vectorial elliptic hollow beams (vEHBs) are generated by an optical system composed of a short elliptic hollow fiber (EHF) and an axicon. Each beam has a closed elliptic annular intensity profile and space-varying polarization states in its diffraction-free distance of more than 1 m. The generated beams have a counter-clockwise or clockwise periodically-rotated inhomogeneous polarization. And the spin angular momentum (SAM) of the vEHBs is 1ħ or -1ħ which is consistent with the type of dual-mode in the EHF and the periodic polarization rotations of the vEHBs. The vEHBs have potential applications in optically trapping and micromanipulating the micro- or nano-particles, quantum information transmission, and Bose-Einstein condensates, etc.     

Quantized rotation of atoms from photons with orbital angular momentum

We demonstrate the coherent transfer of the orbital angular momentum of a photon to an atom in quantized units of variant Planck's over 2pi, using a 2-photon stimulated Raman process with Laguerre-Gaussian beams to generate an atomic vortex state in a Bose-Einstein condensate of sodium atoms. We show that the process is coherent by creating superpositions of different vortex states, where the relative phase between the states is determined by the relative phases of the optical fields. Furthermore, we create vortices of charge 2 by transferring to each atom the orbital angular momentum of two photons.
