Universal Tool for Single-Photon Circuits: Quantum Router Design

A. Sh. Sultanov, Yakov Greenberg, E. Mutsenik +2 more

We demonstrate that the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian approach can be used as a universal tool to design and describe a performance of single photon quantum electrodynamical circuits (cQED). As an example of the validity of this method, we calculate a novel six port quantum router, constructed from four qubits and three open waveguides. We have obtained analytical expressions, which describe the transmission and reflection coefficients of a single photon in general form taking into account the spread qubit's parameters. We show that, due to naturally derived interferences, in situ tuning the probability of photon detection in desired ports.

High-efficiency single-photon router in a network with multiple outports based on chiral waveguide–emitter couplings

Xin Wang, Zhen Yu Wu, Ling Li +2 more

Abstract We propose a potentially practical scheme for constructing a quantum network based on a system where three waveguides are coupled to two two-level atoms. In the case of chiral couplings between the waveguides and atoms, we realize a directed single-photon router and the efficiency of single-photon routing reaches 100%. In addition, in this network, the photon input from one port of the channel can be fully routed to any outport of the other two channels by modulating the coupling strength of the waveguides and atoms and the frequency of the incident photon. Thus, a quantum network can be constructed based on our scheme. The influence of the ratio of chiral coupling strength on the properties of the single-photon router is also shown. We also show how the efficiency of routing is affected by system dissipation.
