    A Study on Entangled Photon Pairs in Graded-Index Optical Fibers
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2021) Ekici, Çağın; Dinleyici, Mehmet Salih
    Quantum optics offer new possibilities, new approaches, and potentially groundbreaking new technologies whose backbone is based on creation, manipulation, and detection of special quantum states of light. The main objective of the thesis is to present a study of spontaneously arisen heralded entangled photon-pairs which play crucial role in emerging quantum enhanced technologies. We have mainly investigated discrete transverse-spatial-mode entangled photon-pairs in waveguide, because it intrinsically offers infinite dimension. Entangled states of higher dimensional systems enable realization of quantum information schemes that can offer higher information density coding and show more error resilience than can be achieved with lower dimensional systems. In this context, we have exploited a graded-index optical fiber as photon-pair-generation platform via nonlinear intermodal-four-wave mixing (FWM), since the fiber may allow different FWM processes to overlap in spectral domain, resulting in an entangled pair of spatial qubits. We have also probed joint spectral properties of the generated photons to show capability of hyperentanglement in frequency and transverse mode. We have discussed spatial Wigner function and its realization to characterize spatial properties of the quantum state. We have shown that entanglement can be verified through a violation of the Clauser - Horne - Shimony - Holt (CHSH) inequality based on spatial Wigner function and coupled-mode theory. This thesis also includes basic analysis of transverse-mode entangled photon-pair distribution in a lossy-dispersive medium. Finally, the ways to follow and the quantities to measure are touched upon. Thus, we have explained the generation and four different detection schemes, relying on a combination of photon-number statistics, joint spectral properties, and spatial entanglement measurements.

    A Practical Approach for Optical Characterization of a Film Coated on the Optical Fiber
    (Academic Press Inc., 2017) Ekici, Çağın; Dinleyici, Mehmet Salih
    Phase Diffraction (PD) Phase Diffraction. which is a result of the interaction of light waves with a transparent object, is exploited to characterize precisely optical properties of dielectric films coated on the optical fiber without harming any feature of the sample. Typical fiber sensor applications require films coated on the side surface of the optical fiber and optical properties of that curved films are crucial for design purposes. In this study, three Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) films are prepared, their thicknesses are estimated based on the phase diffraction method by fitting experimental results with a mathematical model within 2.3% error. The outcomes of this practical method show good agreement with findings of the destructive Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) measurements. The method has the potential to allow real time monitoring abrupt changes of surrounding medium's properties and to examine coating quality (i.e. thickness uniformity) of the film.

    Graded-Index Optical Fiber Transverse-Spatial Entanglement
    (American Physical Society, 2020) Ekici, Çağın; Dinleyici, Mehmet Salih
    We present a study of spontaneously arisen spatially entangled photon pairs via intermodal four-wave mixing in a graded-index multimode optical fiber. Unique dispersive features of the fiber allow spectral indistinguishability of two different phase-matched processes, producing entangled pairs of spatial qubits. The bases are realized as superpositions of orthogonal transverse fiber modes having opposite parities. In particular, we take into consideration the spectral properties of the processes by examining their joint spectral amplitudes. It is shown that illuminating graded-index optical fiber with different pump wavelengths has an impact upon efficiency parameters accordingly the degree of spatial entanglement and gives rise to photon pairs with various spectral purities. Photons with higher spectral purity enable desired single-photon based interactions to take place, whereas photons with lower spectral purity exhibit hybrid entanglement in frequency and transverse mode. We also discuss Wigner function formalism and parity-displacement-based realization to characterize spatial properties of the states, as well as to verify quantum entanglement through a violation of Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality.

    Kırınım Yöntemi Kullanılarak Zeytinyağındaki Tağşişin Belirlenmesi
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Ekici, Çağın; Dinleyici, Mehmet Salih
    Bu çalışmada, faz kırınım yöntemi kullanılarak gıda sanayisindeki büyük sorunlardan biri olan zeytinyağındaki tağşişin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Örnek sıvı içerisine ideal geometriye sahip fiber optik batırılarak lazer ışığının kırınımı incelenmiştir. Kırınım alanının matematiksel ifadesi Fresnel kırınım teorisine göre nümerik olarak hesaplanmıştır. Matematiksel modelleme, deneyler sonucunda elde edilen normalleştirilmiş kırınım deseniyle karşılaştırılıp, sıvının kırıcılık indisi tahmin edilmiştir. Kırınım yönteminin sıvının kırıcılık indisi tahminindeki yüksek hassasiyetli rolü (10−5 mertebesindeki) zeytinyağındaki tağşişin belirlenmesine imkan sağlamıştır.

    Optical Characterization of Dielectric Films on Curved Surfaces Using Diffraction Method
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2016) Ekici, Çağın; Dinleyici, Mehmet Salih
    In this thesis, we aim to characterize optical properties of thin dielectric films coated on curved surfaces. Indeed, optical thin films attract a great deal of attention especially the ones coated on silica based optical waveguides used as sensor system. Therefore, the step index optical fiber is used in the thesis as a substrate due to the fact that the sensor technology tends towards to fiber optic based platforms. In the thesis, a step index optical fiber is coated with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), then its thickness is mathematically estimated exploiting Fresnel scalar diffraction method. Phase front of the laser light wave comes across with a phase object (fiber optic), transmits through of it and diffracts. Whole process is modeled by using numerical analysis methods and compared to experimental results to obtain desired parameters in MATLAB. The conventional least-squares method is used for comparison purpose. Although the emphasis is on optical thin film characterization, we demonstrate the application area of diffraction from fiber optic as sensor. It is used to detect adulteration of olive oil that is big concern for the food industry. The refractive index of various mixture of olive oil and sunflower oil is measured with intend to detect adulteration. This feature makes it a good candidate for fiber optic based refractive index sensor and it may bring practicability and precision to the sensing process. This dissertation gives detailed information about diffraction from fiber optic both theoretically and experimentally. The experiments were realized by using 632.8 nm continuous wave laser. Both of the experimental results demonstrate that phase diffraction method is a powerful technique to characterize optical thin films and to sense refractive index of the surrounding medium.
