Operator for Describing Polarization States of a Photon | | Hong-Yi Fan

8 Dec 1998 | | Journal: | Eur.Phys.J. D8 (2000) 399-402 | | Subject: | quant-ph | | Affiliation: | USTC, HeFei) and Q.Y. Liu (ICTP, Trieste | | Abstract: | Based on the quantized electromagnetic field described by the Riemann-Silberstein complex vector $F$, we construct the eigenvector set of $% F$, which makes up an orthonormal and complete representation. In terms of $% F $ we then introduce a new operator which can describe the relative ratio of the left-handed and right-handed polarization states of a polarized photon .In $F^{prime}s$ eigenvector basis the operator manifestly exhibits a behaviour which is similar to a phase difference between two orientations of polarization of a light beam in classical optics. | | Source: | arXiv, quant-ph/9901015 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
