利用量子频率上转换消除可分辨性

Erasing Distinguishability Using Quantum Frequency Up-Conversion

Hiroki Takesue

摘要:

利用单光子频率上转换,成功地消除了两个单光子的频率可分辨性。利用色散位移光纤中自发四波混频产生的频率非简并光子对,模拟了两个处于相同时间模式但不同频率模式的通信波段单光子。这些光子的频率被转换为相同的频率,通过使用和频率产生过程中的周期性极化的锂离子酸盐波导,同时保持其时间的不可分辨性。结果,在Hong-Ou-Mandel量子干涉实验中,两个转换光子呈现出非经典的凹陷。本方案将为使用各种波长的光子的联网量子信息系统增加灵活性。

英文摘要:

The frequency distinguishability of two single photons was successfully erased using single photon frequency up-conversion. A frequency non-degenerate photon pair generated via spontaneous four-wave mixing in a dispersion shifted fiber was used to emulate two telecom-band single photons that were in the same temporal mode but in different frequency modes. The frequencies of these photons were converted to the same frequency by using the sum frequency generation process in periodically poled lithium niobate waveguides, while maintaining their temporal indistinguishability. As a result, the two converted photons exhibited a non-classical dip in a Hong-Ou-Mandel quantum interference experiment. The present scheme will add flexibility to networking quantum information systems that use photons with various wavelengths.
