Nonlinear and quantum optics
A quantum interpretation of light scattering near the boundary between transparent media with Kerr nonlinearity
A. V. Belinsky Faculty of Physics, Moscow State University, Moscow, 119991, Russia
Abstract:
The transformation of light by a nonlinear beamsplitter is considered. The beamsplitter is formed by a plane interface between two transparent dielectrics, at least one of which has a Kerr nonlinearity; i.e., its refractive index depends on the intensity of the penetrating radiation. It is shown that the interpretation of the result of calculation of quantum fields at the outputs from such a beamsplitter indicates a violation of the principle of causality in the sense that a subsequent event affects the previous one.
