Time-dependent electric field fluctuations at the subphoton level
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report studies of a third-order correlation function that records the conditional time evolution of the field of a fraction of a photon. We present results in the strong-coupling regime of cavity QED, where the detection of a photon from the cavity prepares a state with a well-defined phase that evolves back to equilibrium via a damped vacuum Rabi oscillation. We perform a homodyne measurement conditioned on the photon detection to observe the regression of the field amplitude. The measured field-photon correlation is nonclassical and can be used to determine the spectrum of squeezing in an efficiency independent way.

Study of leaky dielectric droplet behavior under an electric field: effect of viscosity and electric conductivity ratios
In this research, hydrodynamic behavior of a leaky dielectric droplet under an electric field is simulated. The level set method is used for interface tracking and the ghost fluid method is used for modeling discontinuous quantities at interface. Using Taylor’s leaky dielectric model, electric field and electric force at the interface is calculated. Simulation results show the droplet deformati...
متن کاملProposal for an optomechanical microwave sensor at the subphoton level.
Because of their low energy content, microwave signals at the single-photon level are extremely challenging to measure. Guided by recent progress in single-photon optomechanics and hybrid optomechanical systems, we propose a multimode optomechanical transducer that can detect intensities significantly below the single-photon level via adiabatic transfer of the microwave signal to the optical fr...

Time-dependent creep analysis is crucial for the performance and reliability of piezoactuators used for high-precision positioning and load-bearing applications. In this study history of stresses, deformations and electric potential of hollow rotating cylinders made of functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM), e.g., PZT_7A have been investigated using Mendelson’s method of successive e...

We study the flux-flow Hall effect and thermomagnetic transport near the upper critical field Hc2 in extreme type-II superconductors starting from a suitable generalization of the time dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations. We explicitly incorporate the effects of backflow into the calculations of the local electric field and current, leading to a current which is properly divergenceless. The Hal...
متن کاملProbing electric and magnetic vacuum fluctuations with quantum dots.
The electromagnetic-vacuum-field fluctuations are intimately linked to the process of spontaneous emission of light. Atomic emitters cannot probe electric- and magnetic-field fluctuations simultaneously because electric and magnetic transitions correspond to different selection rules. In this Letter we show that semiconductor quantum dots are fundamentally different and are capable of mediating...
