Abstract: An optical device having an optical microsphere. Resonant electromagnetic radiation is trapped in the microsphere and manipulated with externally applied electric and magnetic fields to control polarization components of the excited energy within the microsphere. The optical microsphere can be used as a signal inverter. In the single photon regime, the optical microsphere can be used as a mechanism for entangling qubit states coded by the polarization states of whispering gallery modes excited in the microsphere. Furthermore, the device can be used as a switch for the absorption or reflection of photons in response to control photons.

Abstract: An optical transformer having an optical microsphere is disclosed. Resonant electromagnetic radiation can be trapped in the microsphere and can be manipulated with externally applied electric and magnetic fields to manipulate polarization components of the excited energy. In some embodiments, the resonant modes of the microsphere can be excited from optical fibers. Transitions between modes of the electromagnetic radiation trapped in the microsphere can be accomplished, providing mechanisms for manipulating excited energy in the microsphere. In the single photon regime, the disclosed optical transformer can be used as a quantum bit for application of quantum algorithms.
