As the optical precursor and main wave packet traveled through a second group of rubidium atoms, the scientists took measurements on the speed of the two photon components.
随着光前驱和主波包通过第二组铷原子,科学家就可以对这两个光子成分的速度进行测量。
But this study is the first to experimentally show that optical precursors exist at the single-photon level, and that they are the fastest part of the single-photon wave packet.
而这次的研究则是第一次用实验证明,在单个光子层次上也存在着光前驱,而且它们也是单个光子的波包中最快的部分。
The atoms had an effect called electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT), which enabled the scientists to separate the single-photon precursors from the main wave packet.
这些铷原子可以产生一种称为“电磁感应光透明”(EIT)的效应,可以帮助科学家从主波包中分离出单个光子前驱。
A photon is a quantum of light, or the smallest possible packet of light at a given wavelength.
光子就是光量子,或者以特定波长可能存在的最小的光信息体。
