    摘要: When considered as orthogonal bases in distinct vector spaces, the unit vectors of polarization directions and the Laguerre-Gaussian modes of polarization amplitude are inseparable, constituting a so-called classical entangled light beam. Equating this classical entanglement to quantum entanglement necessary for computing purpose, we show that the parallelism featured in Shor's factoring algorithm is equivalent to the concurrent light-path propagation of an entangled beam or pulse train. A gedanken experiment is proposed for executing the key algorithmic steps of modular exponentiation and Fourier transform on a target integer $N$ using only classical manipulations on the amplitudes and polarization directions. The multiplicative order associated with the sought-after integer factors is identified through a four-hole diffraction interference from sources obtained from the entangled beam profile. The unique mapping from the fringe patterns to the computed order is demonstrated through simulations for the case $N=15$.

    摘要: Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) is a remarkable technology to support both the data and the energy transfer in the era of Internet of Things (IoT). In this paper, we proposed a long-range optical wireless information and power transfer system utilizing retro-reflectors, a gain medium, a telescope internal modulator to form the resonant beam, achieving high-power and high-rate SWIPT. We adopt the transfer matrix, which can depict the beam modulated, resonator stability, transmission loss, and beam distribution. Then, we provide a model for energy harvesting and data receiving, which can evaluate the SWIPT performance. Numerical results illustrate that the proposed system can simultaneously supply 0$\sim$9 W electrical power and 18 bit/s/Hz spectral efficiency over 20 m distance.

  • Arbitrary synthetic dimensions via multi-boson dynamics on a one-dimensional lattice

    摘要: The synthetic dimension, a research topic of both fundamental significance and practical applications, is attracting increasing attention in recent years. In this paper, we propose a theoretical framework to construct arbitrary synthetic dimensions, or N-boson synthetic lattices, using multiple bosons on one-dimensional lattices. We show that a one-dimensional lattice hosting N indistinguishable bosons can be mapped to a single boson on a N-dimensional lattice with high symmetry. Band structure analyses on this N-dimensional lattice can then be mathematically performed to predict the existence of exotic eigenstates and the motion of N-boson wavepackets. As illustrative examples, we demonstrate the edge states in two-boson Su-Schrieffer-Heeger synthetic lattices without interactions, interface states in two-boson Su-Schrieffer-Heeger synthetic lattices with interactions, and weakly-bound triplon states in three-boson tight-binding synthetic lattices with interactions. The interface states and weakly-bound triplon states have not been thoroughly understood in previous literatures. Our proposed theoretical framework hence provides a novel perspective to explore the multi-boson dynamics on lattices with boson-boson interactions, and opens up a future avenue in the fields of multi-boson manipulation in quantum engineering.

  • Simulating graphene dynamics in one-dimensional modulated ring array with synthetic dimension

    摘要: A dynamically-modulated ring system with frequency as a synthetic dimension has been shown to be a powerful platform to do quantum simulation and explore novel optical phenomena. Here we propose synthetic honeycomb lattice in a one-dimensional ring array under dynamic modulations, with the extra dimension being the frequency of light. Such system is highly re-configurable with modulation. Various physical phenomena associated with graphene including Klein tunneling, valley-dependent edge states, effective magnetic field, as well as valley-dependent Lorentz force can be simulated in this lattice, which exhibits important potentials for manipulating photons in different ways. Our work unveils a new platform for constructing the honeycomb lattice in a synthetic space, which holds complex functionalities and could be important for optical signal processing as well as quantum computing.

  • Floquet superradiance lattices in thermal atoms

    摘要: Floquet modulation has been widely used in optical lattices for coherent control of quantum gases, in particular for synthesizing artificial gauge fields and simulating topological matters. However, such modulation induces heating which can overwhelm the signal of quantum dynamics in ultracold atoms. Here we report that the thermal motion, instead of being a noise source, provides a new control knob in Floquet-modulated superradiance lattices, which are momentum-space tight-binding lattices of collectively excited states of atoms. The Doppler shifts combined with Floquet modulation provide effective forces along arbitrary directions in a lattice in frequency and momentum dimensions. Dynamic localization, dynamic delocalization and chiral edge currents can be simultaneously observed from a single transport spectrum of superradiance lattices in thermal atoms. Our work paves a way for simulating Floquet topological matters in room-temperature atoms and facilitates their applications in photonic devices.
