Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of quantum entangled light source characteristic analysis, and specifically relates to an entangled two-photon source wavelength measurement and feedback method based on wavelength-time mapping. Background Art

[0002] Quantum entangled two-photon sources are important resources in quantum optical systems and play an indispensable role in the development of quantum information technology. Among them, energy-time entangled two-photons have attracted more and more attention due to their unique non-local strong time correlation characteristics. After long-distance optical fiber transmission, they can achieve the robustness of two-photon sources to link loss and decoherence effects through the non-local dispersion elimination characteristics. Energy-time entangled two-photon sources in the optical communication band have been applied to a variety of optical fiber-based quantum communications and precision metrology experiments.

[0003] The spontaneous parametric down-conversion process is the most common method for generating entangled two-photon sources. Since nonlinear waveguides have higher nonlinear conversion efficiency than nonlinear crystals and can be well matched with standard single-mode fiber modes to facilitate photon collection, the use of continuous laser pumping of periodically polarized nonlinear waveguides, such as periodically polarized lithium niobate (PPLN) waveguides, to generate energy-time entangled two-photon source pairs has been widely developed and studied. This method uses a temperature controller to adjust the quasi-phase matching. The device is simple and easy to operate, so that the wavelength of the entangled two-photon source can be adjusted. However, due to the process defects in the processing of nonlinear waveguides, different waveguides have different heat treatment residual stresses, which is manifested as long-term irregular drift of the phase matching wavelength of different waveguides even under the above temperature control conditions, which has an adverse effect on the performance of many quantum experimental systems based on energy-time entangled two-photon sources. For example, in quantum time synchronization systems, the stability of the photon wavelength of the entangled source is crucial to the synchronization accuracy. Taking a bidirectional quantum time synchronization system connected by a 100km single-mode optical fiber as an example, if the central wavelengths of the signal photons of the two entangled sources at both ends of the optical fiber link drift by 0.1nm, a synchronization uncertainty of about 170ps will be introduced. At the same time, due to the increase in the asymmetry of the bidirectional link caused by wavelength drift, the time synchronization stability will also deteriorate significantly. In order to obtain higher synchronization stability and accuracy, a screening method is currently generally adopted to select a small number of devices with good wavelength stability from multiple nonlinear waveguides for experiments, resulting in a significant increase in the hardware cost of the system. To overcome this problem, it is crucial to achieve accurate real-time monitoring of the wavelength of the entangled two-photon source and then perform dynamic feedback stabilization through the measured value of the wavelength change.

[0004] In order to measure the wavelength of a single photon of an entangled two-photon source, all the previously proposed methods require a tunable filter to be connected to the optical path of the photon to be measured, and the spectrum intensity distribution of the photon is measured by scanning the wavelength of the filter. This type of frequency domain measurement method is easy to operate and has a wide range of uses, but it requires a long scanning time to obtain complete spectral information, so it cannot meet the above-mentioned application requirements of accurate real-time monitoring of the wavelength of the entangled two-photon source and stable dynamic feedback.
