Abstract

The problem of the two-photon coherent generation of entanglement photon pairs in Quantum Optics has been intensively studied for the last years. It is important to note that the two-quantum cooperative effects play a main role in other fields of physics as well. The collective processes in Condensed Matter have many analogical proprieties with cooperative radiation effects in Quantum Optics. Recently the two-quantum generation of entanglement photons and its applications in information technology and communication has been intensively studied. The new cooperative emission phenomenon for dipole-forbidden transitions of inverted system of radiators can be observed in the processes of the two-photon spontaneous emission.

Cooperative effects between three subsystems in two-photon and Raman resonances

N. A. Enaki, Tudor Roşca

The two-photon and scattering resonances between the spontaneous emissions of the two- and single- photon transitions of the three-level inverted radiators in the Ξ, V configurations and the system of two-level radiators D, inverted relatively the dipole forbidden transition are revised. This approach opens the new possibilities in the manipulation of the decay process and generation of the entangled photon pairs. The correlation between the V and Ξ cascade three-level subsystems on the two-photon transitions of dipole forbidden radiators is studied, taking into consideration the cooperative scattering and two photon resonances through the vacuum field. One of them corresponds to the situation when the total energy of emitted photons by three level dipole-active radiator in the cascade configuration enters into the two-photon resonance with the dipole-forbidden transitions of second atom. Another effect corresponds to the scattering situation, when the difference of the excited energies of the two dipole-active transitions of V three level radiator are in the resonance with the dipole-forbidden transitions of the second one. These effects are accompanied with the interferences between single- and two-quantum collective transitions of the inverted radiators from the ensemble. The two particle collective decay rate is defined in the description of the atomic correlation functions.

Mutual Interaction Induced Multi-particle Physics in QED Systems – Cooperative Spontaneous Emission and Photonic Dimer Enhanced Two-photon Excitation

Zhou, Yao

In recent years, the study of quantum electrodynamics (QED) in light-matter interactions has discovered various interesting phenomenons that orient many applications. However, due to the ambient entanglement among photons and atoms, few-particle dynamics remains challenging to analyze precisely and limits the progress in several fields. In few-particle systems, different number of atoms interacting with the light field generates drastically different results, even when there is only a single photon involved in the system. The interference between individual atom’s spontaneous emission wavefunctions can cooperatively alter the effective atom-light coupling strength. Depending on the spatial distance between individual of atoms and the involved cavities in the interaction progresses, the collective spontaneous emission rate can alter drastically from superradiance, where the emission rate is enhanced to a high value proportional to the atom number, to subradiance, where the excited atom ensemble stays in a dark state with the light trapped forever. Superradiance provides a promising mechanism to create an ultra-strong light-matter coupling environment, which is an important ingredient for the design of ultra-fast optical devices, frequency comb generation and quantum mirrors. The dark state of subradiance, on the other hand, is essential for the quantum memory implementation. Also, nontrivial phenomenons also occur when multiple photons interacting with a single atom simultaneously. When a finite number of photons incidents on an atom, their scattering through an atom is highly nonlinear, and one special eigenstate component of such nonlinear process, namely photonic bound states, exhibits many interesting properties in nonlinear quantum optical systems. The photons in such state are strongly bunched with each other, as if a virtual attractive force is in effect. Also, the frequency of photons are anti-correlated so that their total frequency remains a constant value, no matter how arbitrary the frequency of any individual is. Thesefeatures benefit certain nonlinear quantum processes for quantum computing and quantum imaging. Specially for two-photon excitation imaging, the same-parity two-level fluorophore molecules suffers from extremely low excitation efficiencies due to the far off-resonant intermediate states. However, by replacing the current commonly used ultrashort laser pulse illuminations with two photon bound state photon pairs, namely photonic dimers, the efficiency can be enhanced to orders of magnitude higher. Such exceptionally high excitation efficiency can potentially bring the current in vivo deep brain imaging depth from millimeter level to several centimeters. To obtain a stable source of such photonic dimers, it is found that a laser structure with gain medium of two-photon emission materials is capable of generating the coherent state of photonic dimer and can serve as a promising light source for nonlinear quantum optical devices.

Manipulation of three particle cooperative emission in single- and two-photon interaction through the vacuum field

N. A. Enaki

The resonances between the spontaneous and induced emissions by two- and single photon transitions of three inverted radiators from the ensemble proposed in paper45 open the new possibilities in the manipulation of the decay rate of the entangled photon pairs generated by the system relative the dipole-forbidden transition. The influence of the bath temperature to such process is studied. One of them corresponds to the situation when the total energy of emitted photons by two dipole-active radiators enter the two-photon resonance with the dipoleforbidden transitions of third atom. Second effect corresponds to the scattering situation, when the difference of the excited energies of two dipole-active radiators are in the resonance with the dipole-forbidden transitions of third atom. These effects are accompanied with the interferences between single- and two-quantum collective transitions of three inverted radiators from the ensemble.

It is proposed novel two-photon entangled sources which take into account the coherence and collective phenomena between the photon pairs. The quantum propriety of realistic sources of powerful coherent biphoton radiation (coherent entanglement photon pairs) is analysed. The possibility of experimental applications of coherence between the entangled photons obtained in super-radiance and lasing effects in quantum communications and cryptography is proposed.

Cooperative Resonance Interaction Between One-and Two-Photon Super-fluorescences Trough the Vacuum Field

N. A. Enaki

The theoretical approach takes in consideration the cooperative phenomena which appear between three particle in two-photon resonance in the process of single- and two- photon decay. This type of single- and two-quanta cooperative effect between three subsystems of radiators are described by master equation which takes into account three-particle cooperative resonance in the system. The resonance between the spontaneous emissions by two- and single photon transitions of three inverted radiators from the ensemble is proposed in order to accelerate the collective decay rate of the entangled photon pairs generated by the system. This effect is accompanied with the interferences between one-photon and two-quantum collective transitions of three inverted radiators from the ensemble. The three particle collective decay rate is defined in the description of three atomic correlation functions.

Semiconductor devices for entangled photon pair generation: a review

Adeline Orieux, Marijn A. M. Versteegh, Klaus D. Jöns +1 more

Entanglement is one of the most fascinating properties of quantum mechanical systems; when two particles are entangled the measurement of the properties of one of the two allows the properties of the other to be instantaneously known, whatever the distance separating them. In parallel with fundamental research on the foundations of quantum mechanics performed on complex experimental set-ups, we assist today with bourgeoning of quantum information technologies bound to exploit entanglement for a large variety of applications such as secure communications, metrology and computation. Among the different physical systems under investigation, those involving photonic components are likely to play a central role and in this context semiconductor materials exhibit a huge potential in terms of integration of several quantum components in miniature chips. In this article we review the recent progress in the development of semiconductor devices emitting entangled photons. We will present the physical processes allowing the generation of entanglement and the tools to characterize it; we will give an overview of major recent results of the last few years and highlight perspectives for future developments.
