Demonstrating an additional law of relativistic velocities based on squeezed light

The special relativity is the foundation for many branches of modern physics, of which the theoretical results are far beyond our daily experience and hard to realized in kinematic experiments. However, its outcomes could be demonstrated by making use of the convenient substitute, i.e., the squeezed light in the present paper. The squeezed light is very important in the field of quantum optics, and the corresponding transformation can be regarded as the coherent state of SU(1,1). In this paper, the connection between the squeezed operator and the Lorentz boost is built under certain conditions. Furthermore, the additional law of relativistic velocities and the angle of the Wigner rotation are deduced as well.     

Squeezing of an atom laser originating from atomic Bose-Einstein condensate interacting with light field

The quadrature squeezing properties of an atom laser originating from atomic Bose-Einstein condensate interacting with light field are studied. We find that the squeezing properties of the atom laser are dependent on the initial light field interacting with the atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. If the initial light field cannot be squeezed, such as number state or coherent state light field, the atom laser as well cannot be squeezed. However, if the initial light field interacting with the atomic Bose-Einstein condensate being in squeezed state, the atom laser can be squeezed periodically, and its squeezing depth is dependent on the intensity of interatoms interaction.     

Squeezing properties of light field in the process preparing Raman atom laser

In this paper, the squeezing properties of the probe light field in the process preparing Raman-type atom laser via stimulated Raman transition of the sodium atom Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) interacting with two light beam of a weaker squeezed coherent probe light and a stronger classical pump light are studied. The results show that the probe light can be periodically squeezed. The squeezing period is related to the mean number of atoms in trap, the strength of interaction between squeezed light and BEC atoms, and the detuning of the light, and the squeezing depth is determined by the initial squeezing factor of the probe light.

Super-sensitivity measurement of tiny Doppler frequency shifts based on parametric amplification and squeezed vacuum state

The precision measurement of Doppler frequency shifts is of great significance for improving the precision of speed measurement. This paper proposes a precision measurement scheme of tiny Doppler shifts by a parametric amplification process and squeezed vacuum state. This scheme takes a parametric amplification process and squeezed vacuum state into a detection system, so that the measurement precision of tiny Doppler shifts can exceed the Cram′er–Rao bound of coherent light. Simultaneously, a simulation study is carried out on the theoretical basis, and the following results are obtained: for the signal light of Gaussian mode, when the amplification factor g = 1 and the squeezed factor r = 0.5, the measurement error of Doppler frequency shifts is 14.4% of the Cramer–Rao bound of the coherent light in our system. At the same time,when the local light mode and squeezed vacuum state mode are optimized, the measurement precision of this scheme can be further improved by ■ times, where n is the mode-order of the signal light.     

对应于铯原子D1线连续可调谐正交压缩态光场的制备

铯原子D₁线的非经典光由于其波长接近于量子点的独特优势,在固态量子信息网络的发展中有着重要的应用前景.在之前的工作中,利用两镜连续简并光学参量振荡器中的参量下转换过程,制备出2.8 d B正交压缩真空态光场.然而,所产生光场的压缩度较低,对于对压缩光具有实用意义的可调谐性能也未做进一步探究.理论分析表明,光学参量振荡器后腔镜对信号光透射率的增加及内腔损耗的减小可以提高压缩度.因此,本文在该研究基础上,通过使用高光洁度腔镜及优化腔镜镀膜参数等方式对光学参量振荡器进行改良,降低了光学参量腔阈值,获得压缩度为3.3 d B的单模正交压缩真空光.当光学参量腔运转为参量反放大状态时,在系统稳定运行的情况下,制备的明亮压缩态光场能够连续调谐80 MHz,为其在量子信息网络中的应用奠定了良好的基础.

Surpassing the standard quantum limit for optical imaging using nonclassical multimode light

Using continuous wave superposition of spatial modes, we demonstrate experimentally displacement measurement of a light beam below the standard quantum limit. Multimode squeezed light is obtained by mixing a vacuum squeezed beam and a coherent beam that are spatially orthogonal. Although the resultant beam is not squeezed, it is shown to have strong internal spatial correlations. We show that the position of such a light beam can be measured using a split detector with an increased precision compared to a classical beam. This method can be used to improve the sensitivity of small displacement measurements.
