Geometric phase and helicity inversion of photons propagating inside a noncoplanarly curved optical fiber
2003
Physics Letters A
The Letter presents an exact expression for the non-adiabatic non-cyclic geometric phase of photons propagating inside a noncoplanarly curved optical fiber by using the Lewis-Riesenfeld invariant theory. It is shown that the helicity inversion of photons arises in the curved fiber. Since we have exactly solved the time-dependent Schrödinger equation that governs the propagation of photons in a curved fiber and, moreover, the chronological product is not involved in this exact solution, our
