James Clerk Maxwell formulated a single theory combining all the electric and magnetic effects scientists knew during that time, calling the phenomena his theory predicted “Electromagnetic waves”. He brought together all the work that had been done by brilliant physicists such as Oersted, Coulomb, Gauss, and Faraday and added his own insights to develop the overarching theory of electromagnetism. Maxwell’s equations, combined with the Lorentz force law, encompass all the laws...

Energy Carried By Electromagnetic Waves

3.3K
Anyone who has used a microwave oven knows there is energy in electromagnetic waves. Sometimes, this energy is obvious, such as in the summer sun's warmth. At other times, it is subtle, such as the unfelt energy of gamma rays, which can destroy living cells. Electromagnetic waves bring energy into a system through their electric and magnetic fields. These fields can exert forces and move charges in the system and, thus, do work on them. However, there is energy in an electromagnetic wave,...

The energy transport per unit area per unit time, or the Poynting vector, gives the energy flux of an electromagnetic wave at any specific time. For a plane electromagnetic wave with E0 and B0 as the peak electric and magnetic fields and traveling along the x-axis, the time-varying energy flux can be given by the following equation:

Generating Electromagnetic Radiations

4.7K
The German physicist Heinrich Hertz (1857–1894) was the first to generate and detect certain types of electromagnetic waves in the laboratory. Starting in 1887, he performed a series of experiments that confirmed the existence of electromagnetic waves and verified that they travel at the speed of light. Hertz used an alternating-current RLC (resistor-inductor-capacitor) circuit that resonated at a known frequency and connected it to a loop of wire. High voltages induced across the gap in...

¹³C NMR: Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer (DEPT)

1.2K
When proton-coupled carbon-13 spectra are simplified by a broadband proton decoupling technique, structural information about the coupled protons is lost. Distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT) is a technique that provides information on the number of hydrogens attached to each carbon in a molecule. While the DEPT experiment utilizes complex pulse sequences, the pulse delay and flip angle are specifically manipulated. The resulting signals have different phases depending on...

    Area of Science:

    • Quantum Information Science
    • Quantum Communication
    • Optics and Photonics

    Background:

    • Subcarrier wave encoding is a method for quantum key distribution (QKD).
    • Plug&Play configurations are common in QKD but susceptible to noise like Rayleigh back-scattering and chromatic dispersion.
    • Existing protocols face limitations in performance and robustness.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the performance of subcarrier wave encoding in a Plug&Play QKD system.
    • To propose and demonstrate a novel deep modulation regime for enhanced QKD.
    • To improve the secret key generation rate and robustness of QKD.

    Main Methods:

    • Experimental implementation of quantum key distribution using subcarrier wave encoding in a Plug&Play setup.
    • Analysis of subcarrier encoding performance under realistic noise conditions (Rayleigh back-scattering, chromatic dispersion).
    • Development and testing of a novel deep modulation regime enabling simultaneous detection of two logical states.

    Main Results:

    • The deep modulation regime demonstrates reliable quantum communication with losses up to 20 dB.
    • This new regime maintains the robustness and simplicity of the original subcarrier wave protocol.
    • A twofold increase in secret key generation rate was achieved compared to the original protocol.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed deep modulation regime significantly enhances subcarrier wave QKD performance.
    • This approach offers a practical solution for high-speed, robust quantum communication.
    • The findings pave the way for more efficient and secure quantum key distribution systems.
