Coherent perfect absorption of quantum light

چکیده
Coherent perfect absorption (CPA) was introduced as a classical optics phenomenon of standing-wave by subwavelength film. In this paper, we develop theory CPA quantized standing waves taking account thickness the absorber. This approach allows us to merge all known quantum effects under single and introduce other regimes including NOON states with arbitrary number entangled photons, orthogonally squeezed vacuum states, continuous variable Schr\"odinger cat states. Detailed analysis regime sheds light on fundamental aspects dissipation its practical implementation in information.

Perfect coupling of light to surface plasmons by coherent absorption.
We show theoretically that coherent light can be completely absorbed and transferred to surface plasmons in a two- or three-dimensional metallic nanostructure by exciting it with the time-reversed mode of the corresponding surface plasmon laser ("spaser"). The narrow-band perfect absorption is a generalization and application of the concept of critical coupling to a nanocavity with surface plas...
متن کاملCoherent perfect absorption and reflection in slow-light waveguides.
We identify a family of unusual slow-light modes occurring in lossy multimode grating waveguides, for which either the forward or backward mode components, or both, are degenerate. In the fully degenerate case, the response can be modulated between coherent perfect absorption (zero reflection) and perfect reflection by varying the wave amplitudes in a uniform input waveguide. The perfectly abso...
متن کاملQuantum modeling of light absorption in graphene based photo-transistors
Graphene based optical devices are highly recommended and interested for integrated optical circuits. As a main component of an optical link, a photodetector based on graphene nano-ribbons is proposed and studied. A quantum transport model is presented for simulation of a graphene nano-ribbon (GNR) -based photo-transistor based on non-equilibrium Green’s function method. In the proposed model a...
متن کاملGate-tunable coherent perfect absorption of terahertz radiation in graphene
Perfect absorption of radiation in a graphene sheet may play a pivotal role in the realization of technologically relevant optoelectronic devices. In particular, perfect absorption of radiation in the terahertz (THz) spectral range would tremendously boost the utility of graphene in this difficult range of photon energies, which still lacks cheap and robust devices operating at room temperature...
متن کاملCoherent perfect absorption of path entangled single photons.
We examine the question of coherent perfect absorption (CPA) of single photons, and more generally, of the quantum fields by a macroscopic medium. We show the CPA of path entangled single photons in a Fabry-Perot interferometer containing an absorptive medium. The frequency of perfect absorption can be controlled by changing the interferometer parameters like the reflectivity and the complex di...
