利用弱交叉科尔效应实现多光子任意高维空间纠缠态的确定性制备

提出两种实现多光子高维空间纠缠态的制备方案.首先给出一种基于后验选择技术的实现方案,此方案以一定的概率实现.然后以基于弱交叉科尔效应的控制路径(C-path)门为基础,给出任意双光子任意维度的空间纠缠态的制备方案,并将此方案推广到任意多光子任意维度的空间纠缠态的制备.这一制备方案的最大优点在于可以确定性的得到纠缠态,并且不需要复杂的后验选择技术,可以很方便的应用于量子信息过程,同时该方案在目前的实验条件下是可行的.     

基于腔QED制备W纠缠态（英文）

本文基于腔QED提出了一种制备双光子四粒子体系W纠缠态的新方案.该方案通过双光子过程,利用一个三能级原子与四个腔场发生非共振相互作用制备出具有最大保真度的W纠缠态.要求四个腔场最初处于真空态,原子最初处于激发态,通过合适选择原子与腔场之间的相互作用时间可以获得该态的最大保真度以及成功几率.并且通过讨论表明该方案具有一定的实验可行性.     

基于低品质腔的多光子纠缠纯化方案

基于低品质腔,我们提出了一个光子系统的多体纠缠纯化方案(multipartite entanglement purification protocol,简称MEPP).在这个方案中,通过执行比特反转纠错和相位反转纠错这两个步骤,多光子缠态就能够被纯化.而且可以重复这两步,来得到一个高保真度的纠缠光子态.通过光子在低品质腔中的输入输出过程,光子极化态的宇称能被非破坏性的探测.不同于其他的MEPP,这个方案在目前的实验条件下是非破坏性的而且是可行的.     

关于电路量子电动力学系统中光子自由度的消除方案

基于超导传输线和超导量子比特相互耦合的电路量子电动力学(quantum Electrodynamics, QED)系统, 是目前固态量子信息领域的一个倍受关注的物理系统, 也是研究量子测量和量子控制的理想实验平台. 由于其中涉及的驱动场和超导传输线谐振腔支持的光子频率都在微波区, 在量子测量和量子控制研究中往往遇到 大量光子数引起的状态空间维数过大带来的数值模拟方面的困难. 为了避免这个困难, 往往采取"消除"光子自由度的办法, 建立一个只保留量子比特状态自由度的有效描述方案. 本文通过对单比特的量子测量动力学的数值模拟, 检验了 "绝热消除"和"极化子变换"两种方案的适用条件. 结果表明, 在量子非破坏(quantum non-demolition, QND) 测量情况下, 极化子变换精确适用于 任意驱动强度和任意(光子)泄漏速率微腔; 但在非QND测量情况下, 极化子变换相对通常的绝热消除方案, 并无优势. 在强泄漏微腔和弱耦合情况下, 两种消除光子自由度的方法都可以较好地描述 测量动力学; 但如果微腔光子泄漏速率不是很大或量子比特与微腔耦合较强, 则需要纳入光子自由度做完整模拟, 此时的量子测量属性是一个尚待研究的课题.

光子晶体波导对垂直腔面发射激光器光束远场形貌的调控

研究了光子晶体波导对垂直腔面发射激光器(VCSEL)光束远场形貌的调控.采用三层对称平板波导模型分析了影响光子晶体VCSEL(PC-VCSEL)远场发散角的参数.研究表明,PC-VCSEL中光子晶体的填充比(空气孔直径和光子晶体周期的比值)以及空气孔的刻蚀深度控制了光束的发散角,低填充比和浅刻蚀的PC-VCSEL有利于获得低发散角的光束.设计并制作了两种不同结构参数的PC-VCSEL,这两种器件中光子晶体的填充比和空气孔的刻蚀深度不同.实验结果表明,低填充比和浅刻蚀的PC-VCSEL的发散角更低,与理论分析符合得很好.     

“ 延迟选择”没有延迟

延迟实验是惠勒提出的一个实验, 它所展示的物理结论与人们之前的得到的物理规则格格不入: 观测 行为决定了观测之前发生的事情, 时间上从古至今是一个整体. 该实验充分彰显了量子力学中哥本哈根学派的思 想, 不仅引发一个科学问题还引发了一个哲学问题. “ 延迟选择”实验中, 人们可以在事后以延迟的方式选择光子两 条传播路径中的某一条, 这和因果律相违背. 但是如果能继续以量子力学的基本假设去分析每个实验结果而不是用 “ 定域实在论”去人为确定粒子的路径, 就不会出现难以理解的“ 延迟选择”和“ 因果颠倒”

Random delayed-choice quantum eraser via two-photon imaging

We report on a delayed-choice quantum eraser experiment based on a two-photon imaging scheme using entangled photon pairs. After the detection of a photon which passed through a double-slit, a random delayed choice is made to erase or not erase the which-path information by the measurement of its distant entangled twin; the particle-like and wave-like behavior of the photon are then recorded simultaneously and respectively by only one set of joint detection devices. The present eraser takes advantage of two-photon imaging. The complete which-path information of a photon is transferred to its distant entangled twin through a “ghost" image. The choice is made on the Fourier transform plane of the ghost image between reading “complete information" or “partial information" of the double-path.     

A proposal to implement a quantum delayed choice experiment assisted by cavity QED

We propose a scheme with current technology to implement a quantum delayed-choice experiment in the realm of cavity QED. Our scheme uses two-level atoms interacting on and off resonantly with a single mode of a high Q cavity. At the end of the protocol, the state of the cavity returns to its ground state, allowing new sequential operations. The particle and wave behavior, which are verified in a single experimental setup, are postselected after the atomic states are selectively detected.     

A wave-particle delayed-choice experiment with a single-photon state

We perform a new wave-particle delayed-choice experiment which uses photon pairs produced by parametric fluorescence. One of the photons of a pair serves as a trigger photon, the other one traverses a Mach-Zehnder ring interferometer. The trigger photon switches the interferometer between registration of either pathway information or phase information for the second photon. The result turns out to be independent of whether the switching process takes place before or after the photon passes the first beamsplitter of the interferometer.     

Are therespontaneous objectifications of the wave-particle properties of a single photon?

We investigate by delayed-choice experiments whether there arespontaneous objectifications of the wave-like or particle-like properties of a single photon, when the photon passes a beamsplitter. We do not find such an objectification. The observed behavior is in full agreement with the predictions of quantum optics.     

A scheme for realizing n-qubit controlled-phase gates with atoms in cavity QED

We present a new scheme for realizing a n-qubit controlled-phase gate with atoms in cavity QED. The present scheme operates essentially by exchanging a single photon between the control atoms and the cavity mode before and after a phase shift performed on the target atom. It is interesting to note that the gate can be implemented in a very simple way and by employing resonant interaction with one cavity only.     

Entangling Mesoscopic Squeezed Vacuum States and Mesoscopic Coherent States in Dissipative Cavity QED System

A scheme has been proposed for generating the macroscopic entanglement between the mesoscopic squeezed vacuum states and mesoscopic coherent states by considering both the two-photon interaction and the single photon interaction of N two-level atoms in cavities with high quality factor assisted by a strong driving field. Moreover, we derive the dissipative interaction models for single photon interaction and two-photon interaction, respectively. The corresponding analytical expressions of the fidelities can be given. Our scheme can be realized in the current techniques on the cavity QED.     

Scheme for the teleportation of bipartite entangled state of the two cavity modes

In this paper, we propose a scheme for the teleportation of general two-partite entangled state of zero and one photon state from one bimodal cavity to another. The scheme can be realized by using cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED).     

Cavity QED based tuneable,delayed-choice quantum eraser

We propose an experimentally feasible idea for the delayed-choice quantum eraser, having adjustable path distinguishability/fringe visibility. The schematics are based on resonant, dispersive and Ramsey interactions of atoms under cavity QED scenario. The option for tuneability of the fringes in a delayed-choice setup stringently marks the conception of the time in the quantum theory, operational meanings of the state vector reduction and raises questions about Ψ$\Psi$-ontic models while helping to shed out the controversies surrounding the quantum eraser theme. The proposal can be efficiently executed experimentally within the prevailing cavity QED experimental research scenario with good overall success probability and fidelity.     

Quantum state transfer between distant atoms via selectivity photon emission and absorption progresses

We proposed a simple scheme to deterministically generate three-dimensional (3D) quantum state transfer (QST) between two spatially atoms based on the selectivity photon emission and absorption progresses. In the present scheme, two M-type five-level atoms are trapped into two cavities connected by a fiber. By quantitatively discussing the evolution of system, we show that the effects of atom's spontaneous decay and photon leakage out of fiber can be suppressed in our scheme due to the presence of virtual excited processes in atom and fiber modes. Moreover, we also show that the present scheme can be extended to realize QST between distant nodes in a coupled array of optical cavity, which is very useful for the progress of the quantum information network.
