论文摘要
在过去的几十年中,对最有趣的量子特征之一进行了深入的研究,对Hong-Ou-Mandel(HOM)效应的两光强度相关性进行了深入研究。根据量子力学的粒子性质,在光束分离器上相互作用的无法区分的光子特性是光子束现象的先决条件。在这里,基于光子的波性质的连贯方法用于根据纠缠光子对解释HOM效应。结果,HOM效应的完整解决方案是从确定性方式的不区分的光子特征的相干方法中得出的,而不会违反量子力学。因此,现在将HOM效应完全理解为干涉系统中配对光子之间的相对相位关系,在该系统中,没有干扰条纹的HOM倾角是由于所有相互作用的光子对的集合分解性引起的。
Two-photon intensity correlation of the Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect has been intensively studied over the last several decades for one of the most interesting quantum features. According to the particle nature of quantum mechanics, indistinguishable photon characteristics interacting on a beam splitter are the prerequisite of the photon bunching phenomenon. Here, a coherence approach based on the wave nature of a photon is used to interpret HOM effect based on entangled photon pairs. As a result, a complete solution of the HOM effect is derived from the coherence approach for the indistinguishable photon characteristics in a deterministic way without violation of quantum mechanics. Thus, HOM effect is now perfectly understood as a relative phase relation between paired photons in an interferometric system, where the HOM dip with no interference fringe is due to ensemble decoherence of all interacting photon pairs.
