However, under the assumption that the theory of Lewis-Riesenfeld invariants is applicable in quantum optics, it is shown in the present work that this widely accepted notion is valid only for light described by a time-independent Hamiltonian, i.e., for light in media satisfying the conditions, ε(t) = ε(0), u(t) = u(0), and σ(t) = 0 simultaneously. The use of the Lewis Riesenfeld invariant operator method in quantum optics leads to a marvelous result: the energy of a single photon propagating through time-varying linear media exhibits nontrivial time dependence without a change of frequency.展开更多

The general algebraic form of the polarization vectors for the electric field and their one-dimensional projection operators is discussed without the degenerate cases of optic axis for which they become two-dimensional projection operators. Group velocity and diffraction coefficients in an approximate equation for the slowly varying amplitudes of beam solutions are calculated. As special case a polariton permittivity for isotropic media with frequency dispersion but without losses is discussed for the usual passive case and for the active case (occupation inversion of two energy levels that goes in direction of laser theory) and the group velocity is calculated. For this active case, regions of frequency and wave vector with group velocities greater than that of light in vacuum were found. This is not fully understood and due to large diffraction is likely only to realize in guided resonator form. The notion of “negative refraction” is shortly discussed but we did not find agreement with its assessment in the original paper.展开更多
