Embodiment Construction

[0025] A method for realizing a bidirectional optical diode, comprising the following steps: (a), acting on two beams of oppositely incident coupling fields with a certain frequency detuning in a hot alkali metal atomic medium, so that the atomic medium is opposite to the The refractive index of light is periodically modulated, forming a detuned standing wave model; (b), two probe fields with the same frequency are passed through the thermal atomic medium, and the frequency of the probe field is near the two-photon resonance center. When the forward incident probe field can pass through the hot atomic medium, the backward incident probe field is just completely absorbed by the hot atomic medium, and vice versa, so that the transmission characteristics of the bidirectionally incident probe light can be effectively controlled, and a unique Bidirectional optical diode functions with a certain frequency interval and frequency width; the frequency interval depends on the difference ...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and device for realizing a bidirectional optical diode. The invention scheme is as follows: two oppositely incident coupling fields with a certain frequency detuning act on the hot alkali metal atom vapor chamber, so that the atomic medium periodically modulates the refractive index of the probe light, so that the two-way incident probe The transmission characteristics of light are effectively manipulated, realizing the function of a bidirectional optical diode with a certain frequency interval and frequency width. Doppler effect. Simultaneously introducing a pair of coherent pump fields can effectively improve the bidirectional transmission efficiency of the optical diode without affecting its isolation ratio. The device involved in the invention is easy to miniaturize and integrate, and forms a practical optical quantum device, which is widely used in multi-channel quantum state storage, quantum information storage such as tunable all-optical control optical switches, optical mirrors, and quantum relay networks. field.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of quantum optics and the interaction between light and matter. Specifically, two coupled laser beams with the same polarization and fixed frequency detuning act on the alkali metal atom vapor chamber to make the atomic medium opposite to the incident probe. The refractive index of light produces periodic absorption modulation, so that the transmission characteristics of light incident on the probe can be effectively controlled, thereby realizing the method and device for the function of a bidirectional optical diode. Background technique [0002] Optical diode is a passive device with unidirectional conductivity, that is, it only allows light in one direction to pass through without affecting its transmission characteristics. It is widely used in optical isolation technology and all-optical control in the field of laser technology and quantum optics. process. At present, there are two main ways to realize ...
