Quantum transport of strongly interacting photons in a one-dimensional nonlinear waveguide
Quantum transport of strongly interacting photons in a one-dimensional nonlinear waveguide
We present a theoretical technique for solving the quantum transport problem of a few photons through a one-dimensional, strongly nonlinear waveguide. We specifically consider the situation where the evolution of the optical field is governed by the quantum nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLSE). Although this kind of nonlinearity is quite general, …
