Implementation of a Controlled-NOT Gate Using Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices

A scheme is proposed for implementing a controlled-NOT gate via superconducting quantum interference device （SQUID） in cavity-QED. The controlled-NOT gate can be achieved by coupling the SQUID to a single-mode microwave cavity field or classical microwave pluses. The scheme may be experimentally realizable.     

Engineering three-dimensional maximally entangled states for two modes in a bimodal cavity

An alternative scheme is proposed for engineering three-dimensional maximally entangled states for two modes of a superconducting microwave cavity. In this scheme, an appropriately prepared four-level atom is sent through a bimodal cavity. During its passing through the cavity, the atom is coupled resonantly with two cavity modes simultaneously and addressed by a classical microwave pulse tuned to the required transition. Then the atomic states are detected to collapse two modes onto a three-dimensional maximally entangled state. The scheme is different from the previous one in which two nonlocal cavities are used. A comparison between them is also made.

Generation of Superpositions of Coherent States Along a Straight Line via Raman Interaction

We present an alternative scheme for preparing the superpositions of coherent states along a straight line of a cavity field using degenerate atom-cavity field Raman interaction. In the scheme, a collection of A-type three-level atoms is orderly sent through the cavity to interact with the cavity field adjusted by a microwave source connected to it, followed by state-selective measurements. In this way, we can prepare the superpositions of several coherent states along a straight line with arbitrary weighting factors for the cavity field. In the scheme, the coherence of the atom-cavity system may be maintained and the second microwave field is unnecessary, which is prior to the previous scheme.

Enhancement of nonlinear susceptibility in a four-level tripod scheme

We propose a scheme for the enhancement of nonlinear susceptibility in a four-level tripod-type atomic system in the presence of a microwave field. With a microwave field, nonlinear susceptibility can be enhanced. Nonlinearity can also be ulteriorly enhanced by controlling the coupling field under the optimal intensity of the microwave field. The physical mechanism of the obtained giant nonlinear susceptibility is mainly based on interactions between microwave field and coupling fields. We present a physical understanding of our numerical results using a dressed-state approach and an analytical explanation.     

Real-time Thermal Imaging of Microwave Accelerated Metal-Enhanced Fluorescence (MAMEF) Based Assays on Sapphire Plates

In this paper, we describe an optical geometry that facilitates our further characterization of the temperature changes above silver island films (SiFs) on sapphire plates, when exposed to microwave radiation. Since sapphire transmits IR, we designed an optical scheme to capture real-time temperature images of a thin water film on sapphire plates with and without SiFs during the application of a short microwave pulse. Using this optical scheme, we can accurately determine the temperature profile of solvents in proximity to metal structures when exposed to microwave irradiation. We believe that this optical scheme will provide us with a basis for further studies in designing metal structures to further improve plasmonic-fluorescence clinical sensing applications, such as those used in microwave accelerated metal-enhanced fluorescence (MAMEF).

Microwave transport systems that use semiconductor laser as radio-frequency amplifier

This investigation experimentally demonstrates the effectiveness of microwave transport systems in which a semiconductor laser is used as a radio-frequency (RF) amplifier. This scheme improves the sensitivity of the receiver in a microwave transport system by using a semiconductor laser to amplify the RF signal. The experimental results indicate that the developed architecture has great potential for use in long-distance microwave transport systems. Finally, an optical link monitoring system in the proposed architecture is experimentally demonstrated.     

Phase-dependent inversionless gain in a four-level atomic system with a closed interaction loop

A four-level atomic system with a closed interaction loop connected by two coherent driving fields and a microwave field is investigated. The results show that inversionless gain can be achieved on a higher frequency transition outside the closed interaction loop, and the gain behaviour can be modulated by the phase of the closed loop as well as the amplitude of the microwave field. The phase sensitivity property in such a scheme is similar to that in an analogous configuration with spontaneously generated coherence, but it is beyond the rigorous condition of near-degenerate levels with non-orthogonal dipole moments. Therefore this scheme is much more convenient in experimental realization.

随着无线通信的速率提升和微蜂窝趋势,光载微波技术已经成为重要的发展趋势,而光生多载波系统是光载微波的最重要的技术之一.本文提出了一种基于双环混频光电振荡器（OEO）的可调谐光载微波频率梳产生方案,可同时实现多频段微波信号产生,从而高效低成本地为无线节点提供光生微波载波.方案采用混频双环OEO系统,通过工作在增益开关状态的直调激光器,利用其非线性动态特性产生多频率光载微波频率梳信号,并采用双路微波滤波器分别滤出两个相邻频率的微波信号,并利用二者的差频反馈注入直调激光器构成光电谐振.利用偏振双环结构抑制长谐振腔引起的边模问题,提高了输出信号的噪声特性.经过实验分析,得到了低相噪的多路微波信号,并最终实现了间隔797.4 MHz的稳定的微波频率梳信号,一阶载波相位噪声低于-101.7 dBc/Hz@10 kHz,-115.2 dBc/Hz@50 kHz.因此该方案产生的光载微波频率梳信号具有低噪声的优点,适用于光载微波通信系统.     

Microwave photonic filter with negative coefficients based on counter-phase modulation using a single electro-optic phase modulator

A simple photonic approach is proposed for the implementation of a reconfigurable multi-tap microwave filter with negative coefficients. In this scheme, a dual-optical-input intensity modulation module which can perform counter-phase modulation is constructed using a single electro-optic phase modulator. Two inter-complementary microwave signals are experimentally obtained for verification of the function of counter-phase modulation. A reconfigurable four-tap microwave filter with two negative coefficients is implemented by experiment.     

Implementing Two-Qubit SWAP Gate with SQUID Qubits in a Microwave Cavity via Adiabatic Passage Evolution

We presented a scheme to implement SWAP gate in a microwave cavity. In our scheme, two superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) qubits are coupled to a single-mode microwave cavity field by adiabatic passage method for their manipulation. This process of implementing SWAP gate is in the range of present experiments. The scheme can be easily obtained only by three steps, which does not require perform any operation. In the scheme, the operations only involve three lowest flux states of the SQUIDs, and the excited states would not be excited; therefore, the decoherence due to spontaneous emission of the SQUIDs’ levels would not affect the operations. In addition, during the whole procedure the cavity field is not necessary to be excited because it does not require transfer quantum information between the SQUID’s and the cavity field. Thus, the cavity decay is suppressed. Therefore our scheme may be realized in superconducting systems.     

Simultaneous modulation and transmission of 10-Gb/s baseband and 60-GHz microwave signals in a radio-over-fiber system

A novel radio-over-fiber (ROF) scheme simultaneously to modulate and transmit 10-Gb/s baseband and 60-GHz microwave signals on a single wavelength using single-sideband (SSB) modulation technique is proposed and verified by simulation. The scheme is based on a Dual-Parallel Mach-Zehnder Modulator (DPMZM). The scheme can carry the microwave signals on either the upper sideband (USB) or the lower sideband (LSB) only and the baseband signals on the other sideband. The optical 60-GHz millimeter wave (mm-wave) carrier is generated by means of subcarrier-multiplexing (SCM) technique to carry 155-Mb/s baseband signals while 10-Gb/s baseband signals are imposed on the original optical carrier via SSB modulation. The signals with dual services are successfully transmitted over 50-km single-mode fiber.
