Abstract

The position-representation wave function for multiphoton states and its equation of motion are introduced. A major strength of the theory is that it describes the complete evolution (including polarization and entanglement) of multiphoton states propagating through inhomogeneous media. As a demonstration of the two-photon wave function's use, we show how two photons in an orbital-angular-momentum entangled state decohere upon propagation through a turbulent atmosphere.

  • Investigations of nonclassical states of light through complex media have yet to realize the full potential of quantum walks, which require the ability to prepare arbitrary input states of the walkers.

    “Whereas the propagation of nonclassical states of light through such media has been explored theoretically and experimentally (23–27), these investigations have yet to realize the full potential of quantum walks, which require the ability to prepare arbitrary input states of the walkers.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
