Optical implementation of quantum random walks using weak cross-Kerr media

Yan Li

Weak cross-Kerr media provides additional degrees of freedom of qubits in quantum information processing.In this paper,by exploiting weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity,we propose an optical implementation scheme of one-dimensional quantum random walks. The random walks are described by the interaction of single photons with cross-Kerr media.The proposed scheme can also be used to implement one-dimensional quantum random walks on an infinite line.

Partial Nonlinear Reciprocity Breaking through Ultrafast Dynamics in a Random Photonic Medium

Otto L. Muskens, Paul Venn, Timmo van der Beek +1 more

We demonstrate that ultrafast nonlinear dynamics gives rise to reciprocity breaking in a random photonic medium. Reciprocity breaking is observed via the suppression of coherent backscattering, a manifestation of weak localization of light. The effect is observed in a pump-probe configuration where the pump induces an ultrafast step change of the refractive index during the dwell time of the probe light in the material. The dynamical suppression of coherent backscattering is reproduced well by a multiple scattering Monte Carlo simulation. Ultrafast reciprocity breaking provides a distinct mechanism in nonlinear optical media, which opens up avenues for the active manipulation of mesoscopic transport, random lasers, and photon localization.
