法拉第旋转镜对旋转光纤磁光性能测量的影响

为了解决随机线性双折射对光纤磁光特性测量的影响,采用旋转光纤（SF）结合法拉第旋转镜（FRM）的测量方法,研究了FRM对旋转光纤磁光特性测量的影响。首先,从理论方面研究旋转光纤与FRM的引入如何减小光纤中的随机线性双折射对磁光特性测量的影响,并搭建基于FRM的旋转光纤磁光特性测试系统。当光源波长为1310 nm时,FRM作用前的旋转光纤费尔德常数都比未旋转光纤的大,且旋转光纤的节距越短,费尔德常数越大。特别是旋转光纤的节距为1.0 mm时,其费尔德常数为0.8304 rad/（T·m）,比未旋转光纤的费尔德常数[0.8029 rad/（T·m）]增大了约3.43%。当测试系统加入FRM后,不同光纤的费尔德常数测量值相较于未使用FRM的光纤费尔德常数测量值都有一定幅度的增大,尤其相比于节距为1.0 mm时的旋转光纤更进一步提高了7.50%,并且在FRM作用前后不同光纤费尔德常数测量值的均方差分别为0.99%和0.61%,说明FRM的引入提高了掺杂光纤费尔德常数的测量精度与稳定性。

单光子量子非破坏测量的实验实现

通常来说,光子的探测过程是一个破坏性的过程.将光信号转化为电信号,通过对电信号探测来得到光场的信息.在此过程中,"消灭”掉了光子,"产生”了光电子,因而无法对同一光子进行重复测量.但量子力学从本质上并没有这样的限制.比如,采用量子非破坏(QNDquantum non-demolition)测量方案,在量子光学领域中,已经实现了光强度的QND测量. 光强度QND测量是通过参考光束得到信号光束信息的.让参考光束与信号光束发生非共振相互作用一这样既保证了相互之间没有能量的交换(即不破坏信号光束),又保证了参考光束能从信号光束中抽出信息,同时信号光束的信息体现在参考光束波函数变化的相位上,用光学干涉仪对此变化观测,就得到信号光束的信息.

High-Capacity Quantum Summation with Single Photons in Both Polarization and Spatial-Mode Degrees of Freedom

In this paper, we employ single photons in both polarization and spatial-mode degrees of freedom to design a quantum summation protocol. We assume that the third party, i.e. TP, is semi-honest in our protocol. That TP is semi-honest means TP executes the protocol loyally, keeps a record of all its intermediate computations and might try to steal the participants’ private inputs from the record, but he cannot be corrupted by the adversary. Participants can independently encode their private inputs on the polarization states and the spatial-mode states of single photons. Thus our protocol doubles the capacity of quantum communication compared with those based on single photons with only one degree of freedom. In addition, our protocol is feasible as the preparation and the measurement of single-photon quantum states in both the polarization and the spatial-mode degrees of freedom are available with current quantum techniques. We also analyze its security in this paper.

High-Capacity Three-Party Quantum Secret Sharing with Single Photons in Both the Polarization and the Spatial-Mode Degrees of Freedom

We present a high-capacity three-party quantum secret sharing (QSS) protocol with a sequence of single photons in both the polarization and the spatial-mode degrees of freedom. By inserting the boss Alice into the middle position between the two agents Bob and Charlie, our QSS protocol is secure in theory. The boss Alice chooses some unitary operations to encode her information on the single photons. It is interesting to point out the fact that Alice does not change the bases of the single photons which are used to carry the useful information about the private key, which improves its success probability for obtaining a private key. Compared with the QSS protocol by Zhou et al. (Chin. Phys. Lett. 24, 2181 (2007)), our QSS protocol has a higher capacity without increasing the difficulty of its implementation in experiment as each correlated photon can carry two bits of useful information. Compared with those QSS protocols based on entangled photon pairs and Bell-state measurements, our QSS protocol is more feasible as it does not require the complete Bell-state analysis which is not easy with linear optics. We give out the setup for the implementation of our QSS protocol with linear optical elements.     

High-Capacity Quantum Secure Direct Communication with Single Photons in Both Polarization and Spatial-Mode Degrees of Freedom

We present a high-capacity quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) protocol with single photons in both the polarization and the spatial-mode degrees of freedom. With a single photon traveling forth and back from the receiver to the sender, it can carry 2 bits of information as the sender can encode his message on both the polarization states and the spatial-mode states of single photons independently. Moreover, our QSDC protocol is feasible as the preparation and the measurement of a single-photon quantum state in both the polarization and the spatial-mode degrees of freedom is not difficult with current technology.     

Three-party Quantum Secure Direct Communication with Single Photons in both Polarization and Spatial-mode Degrees of Freedom

We present an efficient three-party quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) protocol with single photos in both polarization and spatial-mode degrees of freedom. The three legal parties’ messages can be encoded on the polarization and the spatial-mode states of single photons independently with desired unitary operations. A party can obtain the other two parties’ messages simultaneously through a quantum channel. Because no extra public information is transmitted in the classical channels, the drawback of information leakage or classical correlation does not exist in the proposed scheme. Moreover, the comprehensive security analysis shows that the presented QSDC network protocol can defend the outsider eavesdropper’s several sorts of attacks. Compared with the single photons with only one degree of freedom, our protocol based on the single photons in two degrees of freedom has higher capacity. Since the preparation and the measurement of single photon quantum states in both the polarization and the spatial-mode degrees of freedom are available with current quantum techniques, the proposed protocol is practical.     

Dynamic Multi-Party Quantum Private Comparison Protocol with Single Photons in Both Polarization and Spatial-Mode Degrees of Freedom

A dynamic quantum private comparison protocol based on the single photons in both polarization and spatial-mode degrees of freedom is proposed. In this protocol, any two parties of n(n ≥ 4) parties can compare their private information with the help of others n ? 2 parties. And any party can join in the protocol to take part in the comparison of n parties. Correctness analysis shows that the proposed protocol can be used to compare their information correctly. Security analysis shows that the proposed protocol can resist the general active attacks from an outside eavesdropper. And it can overcomes the problem of information leakage.
