Applied Optics
|January 16, 2019
Summary
We investigated quantum entanglement in a laser system. Higher initial non-classicality boosts entanglement, while purity has no effect. Driving field intensity and phase control the entanglement dynamics.
Area of Science:
- Quantum Optics
- Quantum Information Theory
Background:
- Quantum entanglement is a fundamental resource in quantum information processing.
- Understanding entanglement dynamics in driven open quantum systems is crucial for quantum technologies.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze the entanglement dynamics of two-mode Gaussian states (TMGS) in a quantum beat laser.
- To investigate the influence of non-classicality, purity, and relative phase of cavity modes on entanglement.
- To explore the role of cavity decay rates and driving field parameters.
Main Methods:
- Utilized Simon's criterion for quantifying quantum state separability.
- Modeled a quantum beat laser driven by two classical fields in a Raman configuration.
- Analyzed the effects of initial state properties and system parameters on entanglement evolution.
Main Results:
- Higher initial non-classicality leads to greater inseparability in the evolved TMGS.
- Entanglement inseparability is independent of the initial purity of the cavity modes.
- Cavity decay rates enhance entanglement with increasing non-classicality.
- Driving field intensity extends the entanglement time scale, while relative phase induces entanglement switching.
Conclusions:
- Non-classicality is a key driver for entanglement in this laser system.
- Entanglement dynamics are sensitive to driving field parameters and initial state properties.
- The study provides insights into controlling and sustaining quantum entanglement in open quantum systems.

The de Broglie Wavelength
In the macroscopic world, objects that are large enough to be seen by the naked eye follow the rules of classical physics. A billiard ball moving on a table will behave like a particle; it will continue traveling in a straight line unless it collides with another ball, or it is acted on by some other force, such as friction. The ball has a well-defined position and velocity or well-defined momentum, p = mv, which is defined by mass m and velocity v at any given moment. This is the typical...
Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)
Two NMR-active nuclei bonded to a central atom can be involved in geminal or two-bond coupling. Geminal coupling is commonly seen between diastereotopic protons in chiral molecules and unsymmetrical alkenes, among others.
The central atom need not be NMR-active because its electrons are affected by the electron polarization of the spin-active atoms. However, spin information is transmitted less effectively than in one-bond coupling, and 2J values are usually weaker than 1J values. The energy of...

Equilibrium Conditions for a Particle
When an object is in equilibrium, it is either at rest or moving with a constant velocity. There are two types of equilibrium: static and dynamic. Static equilibrium occurs when an object is at rest, while dynamic equilibrium occurs when an object is moving with a constant velocity. In both cases, there must be a balance of forces acting on the object.
To understand the concept of equilibrium, let us first consider the forces acting on an object. When different forces act on an object, they can...

Stability of Equilibrium Configuration
Understanding the stability of equilibrium configurations is a fundamental part of mechanical engineering. In any system, there are three distinct types of equilibrium: stable, neutral, and unstable.
A stable equilibrium occurs when a system tends to return to its original position when given a small displacement, and the potential energy is at its minimum. An example of a stable equilibrium is when a cantilever beam is fixed at one end and a weight is attached to the other end. If the weight...

Raman Spectroscopy: Overview
The underlying principle of Raman spectroscopy is based on the interaction between light and matter, specifically molecules' inelastic scattering of photons. When a monochromatic beam of light, typically from a laser source, interacts with a sample, most scattered light has the same frequency as the incident light. This is known as Rayleigh scattering.
However, a small fraction of the scattered light exhibits a frequency shift due to the exchange of energy between the incident photons and the...

Raman Spectroscopy Instrumentation: Overview
A conventional Raman spectrophotometer includes a laser source, a sample holding system, a wavelength selector, and a detector.
The monochromatic laser source, typically using visible or near-infrared radiation, generates a highly focused beam of light. This light interacts with the molecules of the sample, scattering some of the light. Liquid and gaseous samples are usually tested in ordinary glass capillaries, while solids can be analyzed as powders packed in capillaries or as potassium...
