Zero-transmission law for multiport beam splitters.

چکیده
The Hong-Ou-Mandel effect is generalized to a configuration of n bosons prepared in the n input ports of a Bell multiport beam splitter. We derive a strict suppression law for most possible output events, consistent with a generic bosonic behavior after suitable coarse graining.

Input-output relations for multiport ring cavities
Multiport ring cavities represent the natural generalization of two-port Fabry-Perot interferometers [1] to several modes of the radiation field. They find application in advanced interferometry, division multiplexing and optical cross connect. Recently, a three-port fiber ring laser was suggested and demonstrated to improve sensing resolution [2], whereas multiport optical circulators have bee...
متن کاملBeam Splitter Realizations of Totally Symmetric Mode Couplers
We discuss the symmetric multiport and show in a constructive way how it can be decomposed into a set of beam splitters. Based on the decomposition we estimate the number of beam splitters needed. It is shown, that for more than three input ports the number of beam splitters needed is less than the number indicated by the standard decomposition scheme. y Also with the Academy of Finland.
متن کامل9 v 1 9 N ov 1 99 9 Greenberger - Horne - Zeilinger paradoxes for multiport beam splitters
In a gedankenexperiment N particles in a generalised GHZ-type beam entangled state (each particle can be in one of M beams) are fed into N symmetric 2M-port beam splitters (spatially separated). Correlation functions for such a process (using the Bell numbers value assignment approach) reveal a remarkable symmetry. For N = M + 1 ≥ 4 a series of GHZ paradoxes are shown.
متن کاملDesign of switches and beam splitters by use of chaotic cavities.
We propose the construction of electromagnetic (or electronic) switches and beam splitters by use of chaotic two-dimensional multiport waveguides. A prototype two-port waveguide is locally deformed to produce a ternary incomplete horseshoe characteristic of mixed phase space (chaotic regions surrounding islands of stability where motion is regular). Owing to tunneling to the phase-space stabili...
متن کاملMo/Si multilayer-coated amplitude-division beam splitters for XUV radiation sources
Amplitude-division beam splitters for XUV radiation sources have been developed and extensively characterized. Mo/Si multilayer coatings were deposited on 50 nm-thick SiN membranes. By changing the multilayer structure (periodicity, number of bilayers, etc.) the intensity of the reflected and transmitted beams were optimized for selected incident radiation parameters (wavelength, incident angle...
