Robustness of Generated Geometric Phase of Quantum Wells in Two Open Waveguide-Coupled Optical Cavities

Abdel‐Baset A. Mohamed, Ahmed Farouk, Abdel Haleem Abdel Aty +1 more

In this article, we study the geometric phase in a system formed by two spatially separated cavities interacting with the environment. Each cavity is filled by a linear optical medium and contains a quantum well. For different initial states, the robustness of the generated geometric phase is analyzed under the effects of the optical susceptibility, the dissipation of the cavities, the exciton-cavity and fiber-cavity couplings. Our results show that the geometric phase is extremely sensitive to the effects of the cavity-exciton and the fiber-cavity couplings as well as to the optical susceptibility. This opens new routes to understand the storage and manipulation of quantum data in a quantum network.

Geometric representation and the adiabatic geometric phase in four-wave mixing processes

Yongyao Li, Jiantao Lü, Shenhe Fu +1 more

The application of the adiabatic geometric phase (AGP) to nonlinear frequency conversion may help to develop new types of all-optical devices, which leads to all-optical modulation of the phase front of one wave by the intensity of other waves. In this paper, we develop the canonical Hamilton equation and a corresponding geometric representation for two schemes of four-wave mixing (FWM) processes (ω1 + ω2 = ω3 + ω4 and ω1 + ω2 + ω3 = ω4), which can precisely describe and calculate the AGP controlled by the quasi-phase matching technique. The AGPs of the idler (ω1) and signal (ω4) waves for these two schemes of FWM are studied systematically when the two pump waves (ω2 and ω3) are in either the undepleted or in the depleted pump cases, respectively. The analysis reveals that the proposed methods for calculating the AGP are universal in both cases. We expect that the analysis of AGP in FWM processes can be applied to all-optically shaping or encoding of ultrafast light pulse.

Polarization Structure of Quantum Light Fields: A New Insight. 2: Generalized Coherent States, Squeezing and Geometric Phases

V. P. Karassiov

Within the new description of the polarization structure of quantum light (given in Part I) some types of generalized coherent states related to the polarization SU(2) group are examined. With their help we give a quasiclassical description of polarization properties of light fields and discuss the concept of squeezing and uncertainty relations for multimode light in the polarization quantum optics. As a consequence, a new classification of polarization states of quantum light is obtained. We also derive geometric phases acquired by different quantum light beams transmitted through "polarization rotators".
