Quantum Information Processing with Non-classical Light
Quantum information processing (QIP) is a field concerned with technological applications of quantum mechanical phenonomena. In many cases, photons are an ideal quantum system for such applications. Photons exhibit superb coherence properties, are robust to environmental noise, and can be transmitted over long distances. One of the main difficulties of photon based quantum information processin...
متن کاملPhase measurement of light absorption and scatter in human tissue
Analog and digital technologies are presented for precise measurement of propagation delay of photons from source and detector placed on portions of the human body. The goal of the apparatus design is to quantify absorption (ma) and scattering (ms8) induced by biological pigments and biological structures, respectively. Body tissues are highly scattering with a mean distance between scatterers ...
متن کاملSub-shot-noise phase quadrature measurement of intense light beams.
We present a setup for performing sub-shot-noise measurements of the phase quadrature of intense pulsed light without the use of a separate local oscillator. A Mach-Zehnder interferometer with an unbalanced arm length is used to detect the fluctuations of the phase quadrature at a single sideband frequency. With this setup, the nonseparability of a pair of quadrature-entangled beams is demonstr...
متن کاملBerry Phase with Environment: Classical versus Quantum
We discuss the concept of the Berry phase in a dissipative system. We show that one can identify a Berry phase in a weakly-dissipative system and find the respective correction to this quantity, induced by the environment. This correction is expressed in terms of the symmetrized noise power and is therefore insensitive to the nature of the noise representing the environment, namely whether it i...
متن کاملGhost ellipsometry using classical light
This thesis presents a new interferometric technique for the measurement of ellipsometric information by the means of classical ghost imaging. The technique relies on the use of light from a classical, spatially incoherent source with Gaussian statistics. The standard ghost-imaging configuration is modified for reflection measurements and polarizers are added to control the state of polarizatio...
