Study of Nonpolaritons in a Kerr Nonlinear Optical Resonator

Abstract

We find that in a Kerr nonlinear optical resonator, the photon system possesses a new kind of quasiparticle, the nonpolariton. The existence of nonpolaritons should be testified by observing the energy density dependence of the velocity and squeezing of nonpolaritons. As we have investigated, the transition energy density of a Kerr nonlinear optical resonator is larger than that of a normal state.

Squeezed thermal radiation state

Ze Cheng

We find that the photon system in the black body filled in its interior by a Kerr-nonlinear crystal is in a squeezed thermal radiation state, in which the photon system possesses a new kind of quasiparticles - nonpolaritons. The existence of nonpolaritons should be manifested by observing the predicted temperature dependence of the velocity and squeezing of nonpolaritons. The propagation velocity and noise properties of nonpolaritons constitute potentially novel and significant effects in solid-state quantum optics and hence these effects should have extensive application to fields of science and technology.

Condensation state of photons in a Kerr nonlinear blackbody

Ze Cheng

Within the framework of quantum field theory, we show that the photon system in a blackbody whose interior is filled by a Kerr nonlinear crystal is in a condensation state. In the condensation state, bare photons with opposite wave vectors and helicities are bound into pairs and unpaired bare photons are transformed into a new kind of quasiparticle, the nonpolariton. The photon-pair system is a condensate and the nonpolariton system is a boson gas. At zero temperature the condensate possesses a largest persistent energy density. The persistent energy density of the condensate is a monotonically decreasing function of temperature and Kerr nonlinear coefficient. The $Q$ function of a Kerr nonlinear blackbody at any temperature is derived analytically. In the transition from the normal to the condensation state, the phase symmetry of the photon system is spontaneously broken.

Quantum effects of thermal radiation in a Kerr nonlinear blackbody

Ze Cheng

A photon blackbody field in Kerr nonlinear crystal is a squeezed thermal radiation state in which there is a new kind of quasi particle, the nonpolariton. A nonpolariton is a condensate of virtual nonpolar phonons, with a bare photon acting as the nucleus of condensation. The propagation velocity of nonpolaritons is a monotonically increasing function of temperature, and the noise of one quadrature phase in the squeezed thermal radiation state can be below the noise level in the vacuum state. The photon system undergoes a second-order phase transition from the normal to the squeezed thermal radiation state.

Amplitude-Squared Squeezing in a Kerr-Nonlinear Blackbody

Zixia Wu, Ze Cheng, Zhang Yan-Min +1 more

We find that amplitude-squared squeezing of the photon field is present in a new blackbody, namely, a Kerr-nonlinear blackbody. The squeezing effect decreases as temperature T increases. The amount of the amplitude-squared squeezing in a Kerr-nonlinear blackbody is much larger than the corresponding squeezing in normal blackbody, and the degree of amplitude-squared squeezing is much larger than the amplitude squeezing for the same range of parameters in a Kerr-nonlinear blackbody.

Role of the higher optical Kerr nonlinearities in self-squeezing of light

R. Tanaś, S. Kielich

The part played by higher-order optical nonlinearities in self-squeezing of intense light propagating in a nonlinear Kerr medium is discussed. An analytical formula for the normally ordered variances of the field is derived under the assumption that the nonlinearity parameters of the medium are small and the number of photons is very great. The saddle-point approach is used to evaluate the sums over large numbers of photons. The analytical formula is illustrated graphically for several sets of nonlinearity coefficients. It is shown that, for large numbers of photons, the higher-order contributions are substantial and can modify the magnitude of squeezing as well as the range of the parameters over which squeezing can be observed.
