Abstract

It is proposed to continue the experimental study of the Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect in order to identify the nonlocal properties of the memory of quantum systems.

Second-order superposition operations via Hong-Ou-Mandel interference

Su-Yong Lee, Hyunchul Nha

We propose an experimental scheme to implement a second-order nonlocal superposition operation ${\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{a}}^{\ifmmode\dagger\else\textdagger\fi{}2}+{e}^{i\ensuremath{\varphi}}{\stackrel{\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}{b}}^{\ifmmode\dagger\else\textdagger\fi{}2}$ and its variants by way of Hong-Ou-Mandel interference. The second-order coherent operations enable us to generate a NOON state with high particle number in a heralded fashion and also can be used to enhance the entanglement properties of continuous variable states. We discuss the feasibility of our proposed scheme considering realistic experimental conditions such as on-off photodetectors with nonideal efficiency and imperfect single-photon sources.

On the Physical Nature of Hanbury-Brown-Twiss and Hong-ou-Mandel Effects.

V. A. Kuz’menko

The physical nature of the nonrandom quantum phenomena of bunching-antibunching of photons in a beam splitter is discussed. The physical explanation is based on the fact that the forward and reverse processes are not equivalent in quantum physics. The possibility and necessity of an experimental study of the nonlocality of memory of quantum systems is also discussed.

Turbulence and the Hong-Ou-Mandel effect

Shashi Prabhakar, Chemist M. Mabena, Thomas Konrad +1 more

The effect of a decoherence channel, such as a turbulent atmosphere, on the second-order quantum interference in the Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect is investigated. The investigation includes both theoretical analyses and an experimental implementation of the process. In our experiment, entangled input states are prepared with spontaneous parametric down-conversion. The atmospheric turbulence is modeled as a single-phase screen and simulated with spatial light modulators according to the theory of Kolmogorov. We find both theoretically and experimentally that the HOM dip is unaffected when only one of the photons passes through turbulence. When both photons pass through turbulence, the HOM interference is only slightly affected by the scintillation. The reasons behind these findings and their consequences for HOM-based teleportation are discussed.
