Quantum-Optical Efficiency Index (QOEI)

PHOTON-Q introduces the first physics-informed AI framework for quantitative characterization and prediction of quantum-optical coherence in high-noise photonic environments — the Quantum-Optical Efficiency Index (QOEI). Built on three mathematically rigorous constructs spanning Neural Helmholtz Prediction, Phase Coherence Tensor tracking, and adaptive Phase-Locking Algorithm.

The Three PHOTON-Q Constructs

NHP
Neural Helmholtz Predictor · Learned Permittivity ε_r(r,θ)
∇²E(r) + k₀²·ε_r(r,θ)·E(r) = F_AI(r, ∇E, θ) — Non-linear wave propagation with SIREN-4L architecture
PCT
Phase Coherence Tensor · Hermitian State-Tracking
C(t) = Σᵢⱼ αᵢ*·αⱼ·exp(-Γ_θ·|i-j|·Δt) — Multi-mode phase relationship tracking
QOEI
Quantum-Optical Efficiency Index · Unified Metric
η_Q = [I(ρ_in; ρ_out) - S(ρ_out||ρ_in)] / I_max — Bridging wave optics and quantum information

Quantum-Optical Efficiency Index (QOEI) Formula

η_Q = [I(ρ_in; ρ_out) - S(ρ_out||ρ_in)] / I_max ∈ [0, 1]
I(ρ_in; ρ_out): Quantum mutual information
S(ρ_out||ρ_in): Von Neumann relative entropy
I_max: Channel capacity (Holevo bound)

Python Interface

from photon_q import PhotonQ
from photon_q.environments import PhotonicCrystalEnvironment

pq = PhotonQ.load_pretrained("photon_q_v1.0.0")

env = PhotonicCrystalEnvironment(
    cavity_mode="TE_00",
    q_factor=1.2e6,
    temperature_k=4.2
)

result = pq.compute_qoei(
    optical_input="cavity_sweep.h5",
    environment=env
)

print(f"η_Q = {result.qoei:.4f} [{result.status}]")

Physics-Informed Neural Network + Neural ODE

# PINN penalty layer constraints (from paper)
# • Helmholtz compliance: ∇²E + k₀²·ε_r·E = F_AI
# • Energy conservation: ∮|E(r)|² dS ≤ P_incident
# • Density matrix validity: Tr(ρ)=1, ρ=ρ†, ρ ≥ 0

# Python implementation
from photon_q import PhotonQPredictor
predictor = PhotonQPredictor()
result = predictor.predict(optical_spectrum, current_params)
