Abstract

The invention relates to a measurement method of a coherent-vortex topological charge based on two-photon association. The measurement method of the coherent-vortex topological charge based on two-photon association comprises the following steps of generating a noncoherent entanglement photon pair; dividing the entanglement photon pair into an i photon and an s photon through a beam splitter; controlling a computer and making the s photon passing through a spatial light modulator acquire a vortex phase, then coupling an optical signal to a single mode fiber and using an avalanche diode to carry out single point measurement; controlling the computer and making the i photon passing through the spatial light modulator acquire a specific amplitude and a phase, then coupling the optical signalto the single mode fiber and using the avalanche diode to carry out single point measurement; associating and calculating the two paths of measured optical signals and using the computer to record; and through changing a transmission coefficient of the spatial light modulator of an optical path where the i photon is located, searching a maximum value of an output association value, wherein an i photon transmission coefficient corresponding to the maximum value is a vortex topological charge value of the s photon. In the invention, the noncoherent entanglement photon pair is taken as a light source; on a single photon level, a topological charge of a coherent vortex is measured; and advantages of an accurate measurement result and a large measurement range are possessed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for measuring coherent vortex topological charge based on two-photon correlation, which belongs to the field of quantum sensing. technical background [0002] The vortex beam is a special light field with a spiral phase wavefront, the phase distribution function of the light field is exp(ilθ), and each photon of this light field carries a specific orbital angular momentum where l is called the topological charge and θ is the azimuth angle. For partially coherent light with poor coherence, generally there is no optical vortex with zero intensity, but there is a coherent vortex with zero spectral coherence or mutual coherence function. The topological charge of coherent vortex has important application prospects in optical tweezers, laser communication and quantum cryptography. The orbital angular momentum state |l> of photons has completeness, orthogonality and infinite dimensions, and it has been demonstrated that i...
