  • 研究了双轴各向异性负折射率材料光纤中光传播特性及光子波函数几何相位的特殊性质. 为体现其拓扑与整体效应,光子几何相位必依赖于螺旋光纤中光子波函数演化路径所张开的立体角. 本研究证明,在双轴各向异性负折射率材料光纤中,因在光的传播过程中正负折射率对于光波几何相位的贡献可以相互抵消,因此光子几何相位将与光子波函数演化路径所张锥角无关. 还讨论了源于量子涨落效应的真空水平光子几何相位的物理性质以及在实验上探测这一真空效应的可能性.

     

    The novel optical properties of wave propagation and the special feature of phot on geometric phases inside a noncoplanarly curved fiber made of biaxially anisot ropic left_handed media are considered in this paper. In general, the photon geo metric phases is inevitably dependent on the solid angle subtended by the curve along which the photon moves, which presents the topological and global property of time evolution of photon wavefunctions. It is, however, shown that inside a biaxially anisotropic left_handed fiber the photon geometric phases will be inde pendent of the cone angle, since the contributions of negative and positive refr active indices to the geometric phases of circularly polarized photons have been cancelled each other. In addition, we discuss briefly the properties of the qua ntum_vacuum geometric phases resulting from the quantum vacuum fluctuation, and the probability of the detection of such a vacuum effect in experiments.
