4 Quantum information and future quantum devices Quantum information Quantum coherent devices Based on whole wave function rather than state density only: Phase effect dominated Emergent quantum phenomena in artificial structures and meta-materials

5 From electronic to single electron transistor (SET) based on current and voltage from the density of electrons rather than phases of the states Controlling quantum state at the level of single electron

6 Optical switch to single photon transistor (SPT) All optical device in quantum level: Controlling one photon by one photon

7 Why controlling photon by photon is difficult? No direct inter-photon interaction and direct coupling to external E.M field according to QED Photon self interaction must be mediated by some massive particles in higher order processes

8 Single photon based devices Single-photon source Photonic-crystal cavity An ideal triggered source of single photon emits one and only one photon in each pulse Our proposal based on superconducting artificial atoms ( PRB 75, ) distributed-braggreflector (DBR) cavity Single-photon detection Toshiba setup single photon detector

9 Signature of single photon by its statistics g (2) ( τ ) = : I( t) I( t + τ ) : I( t) Δ n> n, g (0)>1, superpoissonian, classical 2 2. Δ n= n, g ( )=1, Poissonian, classical τ Δ n< n, g (0)<g ( )<1, subpoissonian, quantum 1. τ 0 τ A regulated sequence of optical pulses that contain one-and-only-one photon

10 Single photon transistor (SPT) proposal D. E. Chang et al, Nature Physics, 3,807(2007) With electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) mechanism Model : Linear waveguide coupled to a local two-level system The setup was based on the theory by a series papers in S.H. Fan, et. al (Stanford), e.g., J. T. Shen and S. Fan, Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, (2005); 98, (2007); ibid. 98, (2007);Opt. Lett. 30, 2001 (2005)

11 Our questions about this SPT Setup One shot control : one photon by one photon? No, nly strong light controls the EIT Wide band or narrow band? Narrow one due to the single resonate point Localize photon for quantum memory? No, this localization need bound state of Photon! The linear dispersion that could not trap photon Dirac Type particle,klein paradox

52 How to have more controllable parameters for photon According quantum electrodynamics (QED), no direct interaction exist between two photons, thus magnetic or electric fields could not control the photon straightforwardly. In this sense, photon is very different from electron Motivated by AB effect, we use the non-trivial spatial topology to induced an equivalent field for photon
