Single-photon all-optical switching using waveguide-cavity quantum electrodynamics
This paper demonstrates switching of a single signal photon by a single gating photon of a different frequency, via a cross-phase-modulation. This effect is mediated by materials exhibiting electromagnetically induced transparency EIT , which are embedded in photonic crystals PhCs . An analytical model based on waveguide-cavity QED is constructed for our system, which consists of a PhC waveguid...
متن کاملHeralded single-magnon quantum memory for photon polarization States.
We demonstrate a heralded quantum memory where a photon announces the mapping of a light polarization state onto a single collective-spin excitation (magnon) shared between two atomic ensembles. The magnon can be converted at a later time into a single polarized photon with polarization fidelity over 90(2)% for all fiducial input states, well above the classical limit of 2/3. The process can be...
متن کاملQuantum communication with continuum single-photon, two-photon and coherent states
In this work, we analyze the behavior of continuum single-photon, two-photon and coherent states in some quantum communication schemes. In particular, we consider the single-photon in a Mach-Zenhder interferometer, the Hong-Ou-Mandel interference, the quantum bit commitment protocol and a new protocol for secure transmission of sampled analog signals. Furthermore, it is shown an equation for es...
متن کاملQuantum state reconstruction of the single-photon Fock state.
We have reconstructed the quantum state of optical pulses containing single photons using the method of phase-randomized pulsed optical homodyne tomography. The single-photon Fock state 1> was prepared using conditional measurements on photon pairs born in the process of parametric down-conversion. A probability distribution of the phase-averaged electric field amplitudes with a strongly non-Ga...
متن کاملQuantum homodyne tomography of a two-photon Fock state.
We present a continuous-variable experimental analysis of a two-photon Fock state of free-propagating light. This state is obtained from a pulsed nondegenerate parametric amplifier, which produces two intensity-correlated twin beams. Counting two photons in one beam projects the other beam in the desired two-photon Fock state, which is analyzed by using a pulsed homodyne detection. The Wigner f...
