Abstract
A first photon in single-photon state is created when one of two photons created by parametric down conversion of a pump light is detected at a first detector. The first photon is divided into two components by a polarization beam splitter, and the first component is sent to a sender while the second component is sent to a receiver, with information that one of the two photons is detected. The sender selects whether he measures the first component or not according to the signal that he wants to transmit to the receiver. The second component of the first photon and a probe light enter into the second nonlinear optical medium. The receiver detects the phase modulation of the probe light caused by the interaction with the second component using homodyne detection during a first span after he receives the information from the first detector.
