相干态统计特性的弱测量结构研究

理论分析相干态位移参数估计在弱测量方法下的放大效应.引入偏振态作为附属态(Ancilla States),分别进行初选择和后选择,中间的相互作用采用了偏振相关的弱位移操作算符.通过最后检测光子数的分布来估计位移参数;在牺牲检测光子强度的情况下可以有效提高放大效应.     

Weak value amplification via second-order correlated technique

We propose a new framework combining weak measurement and second-order correlated technique.The theoretical analysis shows that weak value amplification(WVA) experiment can also be implemented by a second-order correlated system.We then build two-dimensional second-order correlated function patterns for achieving higher amplification factor and discuss the signal-to-noise ratio influence.Several advantages can be obtained by our proposal.For instance,detectors with high resolution are not necessary.Moreover,detectors with low saturation intensity are available in WVA setup.Finally,type-one technical noise can be effectively suppressed.     

群速度色散对于纠缠光场二阶关联函数影响的研究

HBT干涉是量子测量中的一种重要手段, 其通过计算光场的二阶关联函数而得到测量结果. 在长距离测距中, 光场的二阶关联函数会受到光纤中群速度色散的影响而发生展宽和平移, 从而在一定程度上影响测量精度. 本文主要针对二阶关联函数半高宽受群速度色散的影响, 给出了半高宽与测量距离与群速度色散系数的关系.     

Fast implementation of length-adaptive privacy amplification in quantum key distribution

Post-processing is indispensable in quantum key distribution(QKD), which is aimed at sharing secret keys between two distant parties. It mainly consists of key reconciliation and privacy amplification, which is used for sharing the same keys and for distilling unconditional secret keys. In this paper, we focus on speeding up the privacy amplification process by choosing a simple multiplicative universal class of hash functions. By constructing an optimal multiplication algorithm based on four basic multiplication algorithms, we give a fast software implementation of length-adaptive privacy amplification. "Length-adaptive" indicates that the implementation of privacy amplification automatically adapts to different lengths of input blocks. When the lengths of the input blocks are 1 Mbit and 10 Mbit, the speed of privacy amplification can be as fast as 14.86 Mbps and 10.88 Mbps, respectively. Thus, it is practical for GHz or even higher repetition frequency QKD systems.     

Adjustable unbalanced quantum random-number generator

We report an adjustable unbalanced quantum random-number generator based on the polarization of photons,which can produce nondeterministic true random unbalanced numbers. The underlying physical process is inherently quantum mechanical. To prove the quality of the output sequence of the proposed generator, we test the obtained bias-free sequence through the 3-standard-deviation criteria and the National Institutes of Standards and Technology test suite. Another type of nondeterministic unbalanced random-number generator is also studied in this work, to evaluate the quality of the output biased random numbers.
