Polarization squeezing by optical faraday rotation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that it is possible to generate continuous-wave fields and pulses of polarization squeezed light by sending classical, linearly polarized laser light twice through an atomic sample which causes an optical Faraday rotation of the field polarization. We characterize the performance of the process and we show that an appreciable degree of squeezing can be obtained under realistic physical assumptions.

Optical manipulation of collective spin correlations in semiconductors with a squeezed vacuum of polarized photons
We calculate the transfer rate of correlations from polarization entangled photons to the collective spin of a many-electron state in a two-band system. It is shown that when a semiconductor absorbs pairs of photons from a two-mode squeezed vacuum, certain fourth-order electron-photon processes correlate the spins of the excited electron pairs of different quasimomenta. Different distributions ...
متن کاملPolarization from magnetized accretion discs: II. The effects of absorption opacity on Faraday rotation
Equipartition magnetic fields can dramatically affect the polarization of radiation emerging from accretion disk atmospheres in active galactic nuclei. We extend our previous work on this subject by exploring the interaction between Faraday rotation and absorption opacity in local, plane-parallel atmospheres with parameters appropriate for accretion discs. Faraday rotation in pure scattering at...
متن کاملCoherent perfect rotation
Two classes of conservative, linear, optical rotary effects (optical activity andFaraday rotation) are distinguished by their behavior under time reversal. Faraday rotation, but not optical activity, is capable of coherent perfect rotation, by which wemean the complete transfer of counterpropagating coherent light fields into their orthogonal polarization. Unlike coherent perfect absorption, ho...
متن کاملStudy on Polarization Effects Based on Fiber-Optic Vibration Sensor
An analysis based on the Jones matrix theoretical analysis is presented in this paper, which is based on the distributed optical fiber vibration sensor to study the polarization effect. A new improved distributed optical fiber structured is designed by using a Faraday rotation mirror ,the system remove the linear birefringence and the orientation birefringence, and it is insensitive to the chan...
متن کاملPolarimetric Calibration Using Polarization Orientation Angles of Built-up Areas
A new polarimetric calibration method using polarization orientation angle shifts at built-up areas and standard calibrators is studied. Calibration matrices were derived from datasets of the Gifu and the JAXA Tomakomai calibration sites, which are almost the same as those by JAXA. Faraday rotation angels in observed datasets can be estimated. Two estimated Faraday rotation angles were reasonable.
