• Abstract: Nonlocal quantum correlation has been the main issue of quantum mechanics over the last century. The Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect relates to the two-photon intensity correlation on a beam splitter, resulting in a nonclassical photon-bunching phenomenon. The HOM effect has been used to verify the quantum feature via Bell measurements for quantum technologies such as quantum repeaters and photonics quantum computing. Here, a coherence version of the HOM effect is proposed and analyzed to understand the fundamental physics of the anticorrelation and entanglement. For this, frequency-correlated coherent photon pairs are prepared in an independent set of Mach-Zhender interferometers (MZI) using a synchronized pair of modulators from an attenuated laser. For the HOM effect, the phase relation between frequency-correlated photons plays an essential role. For the product-basis randomness, the symmetrically modulated two independent MZIs are combined together incoherently. A classical intensity product between two independent photodetectors is also discussed for the same HOM effect in a selective macroscopic measurement scheme.

  We study a model of amplification of quantum transfer and making it directed which we call the quantum ratchet model. The ratchet effect is achieved in the quantum control model with dissipation and sink, where the Hamiltonian depends on vibrations in the energy difference synchronized with transitions between energy levels. Amplitude and frequency of the oscillating vibron together with the dephasing rate are the parameters of the quantum ratchet which determine its efficiency.

  Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect can lead to a perfect suppression of two-particle coincidences between the output ports of a balanced beam splitter. In this work, we demonstrate experimentally that the two-particle coincidence statistics of two bosons can instead be seamlessly tuned to substantial enhancement. Our findings reveal a new approach to harnessing non-Hermitian settings for the manipulation of multi-particle quantum states.
