Description

Background
Quantum communication is a subject for researching information transmission and processing by using a quantum means, and provides a novel communication mode which is absolutely safe in principle. By using quantum communication technology, a secret key system which cannot be decoded can be established, and secret communication in the true sense is realized.
In 2016, 8 months, successful emission of the first quantum scientific experimental satellite 'ink number' in the world lays the leading position of China in the field of remote free space quantum communication, lays a solid foundation for the practicability of quantum communication, and further research work is being carried out on the business quantum satellite.
In the distribution of the polarization-encoded free-space quantum key, after key photons are emitted from a quantum light source and encoded, the key photons pass through a free-space channel and an optical-mechanical system and are finally received by a single-photon detector. When the optical element is used under a certain working angle, the introduced extra polarization sensitivity and phase difference can cause the distortion of quantum coding photons, thereby causing the increase of the error rate of quantum communication, simultaneously, due to the nonideal of an atmospheric channel and the imperfection of an optical machine system, the distortion of parameters such as the efficiency, the polarization state and the like of a quantum key signal in the distribution process of the quantum key can be caused, and external noises such as a secret mark number and the like can be introduced, thereby causing the reduction of the code rate of the quantum key distribution system, and even causing the failure of the quantum communication in serious cases.
The method is applied to the spectroscope of quantum satellite polarization coding, can realize the separation of beacon light and quantum light, and also can give consideration to the characteristics of S, P light efficiency consistency and phase difference regulation. Polarization maintenance of the beam splitter between the quantum light and the beacon light is crucial to the system error rate.

The specific implementation mode is as follows:
the following describes embodiments of the present patent with reference to examples.
Example 1: the spectroscope works at a near infrared band of 850nm, the incident angle is 45 degrees, the reflectivity is 50 percent, the difference of the S light and the P light reflectivity is less than 2 percent, and the phase difference is less than +/-1 percent. Choosing quartz as the substrate, Ta2O5Being a high refractive index material, SiO2The material is low in refractive index, and the Ag is a metal film layer material.
The induced transmission film aH bA aH was first designed, where a, b represent the thickness coefficient (in nm) of the film layer. The thickness of a determines the range of the working waveband, and the thickness of b determines the reflectivity of the waveband. During design, the multilayer medium phase control film has certain influence on the reflectivity of a working waveband, so that the reflectivity of the induced transmission film is initially within +/-5% of the index reflectivity. Taking the reflectivity of 50% as an example, the reflectivity value of the initial design needs to reach 50% +/-5%. The preliminary design film for induced transmission is: 63.6H 23.7A 63.6H.
Secondly, optimizing the multi-layer medium phase control film system cH dL eH fL hH by means of Filmwizard optical film design software, wherein c, d, e, f and g represent the thickness (unit nm) of each film layer. The optimization process sets reasonable optimization goals as key steps of the optimization process. The thicknesses a and b of the film layers of the induced transmission film system are fixed in the optimization process. Finally, a 7-layer film system structure is obtained, which specifically comprises the following steps: 63.6H 23.7A 96H 150.9L 93.8H 187.4L.
Example 2: the spectroscope works in near infrared band 850nmThe incident angle is 45 degrees, the reflectivity is 70 percent, the difference of the S light and the P light reflectivity is less than 2 percent, and the phase difference is less than +/-1 degree. Choosing quartz as the substrate, Ta2O5Being a high refractive index material, SiO2The material is low in refractive index, and the Ag is a metal film layer material.
Other criteria required constant and varied reflectance compared to example 1. Therefore, the coefficient of a in the induced transmission film system aH bA aH can be kept unchanged, and the thickness of b is changed, so that the reflectivity of the spectroscope is regulated and controlled. According to the design results of example 1, the silver film thickness can be increased to increase the reflectance of the film system to 70% ± 5%. The primary design film system structure for inducing transmission is as follows: 63.6H 30.4A 63.6H.
Next, the optimization target was the same as that of example 1, and the thickness of each film layer in the multi-layer medium phase control film system cH dL eH fL gH was optimized. Finally, a 7-layer film system structure is obtained, which specifically comprises the following steps: 63.6H 30.4A 99.1H 150.9L 93.6H 184.7L.
In the actual design process, the optimization result will also change due to the change of the optimization target and the optimization method, but the thickness of the film layer should fully consider the possibility of process implementation and the firmness of the film layer. In short, the specific design and optimization can be adjusted according to the actual situation, and the design of the membrane system using the design idea of this patent all belongs to the protection scope of this patent.
