We studied quantum evolution of a photon wavepacket using numerical simulation. We devised a Hilbert space with sinusoidal basis functions and computed vector elements of the photon wavepacket in the Hilbert space through Fourier transform. We also formed the associated Hamiltonian in the matrix form and derived equations for time evolution of the wavepacket from standard Schrodinger equation. Finally,we performed simulation of the quantum evolution of the wavepacket through repeated application of the Hamiltonian on it. Simulation results showed efficacy of the approach. 2014-05-18T01:47:31Z 2014-05-18T01:47:31Z 2013 Article World Applied Sciences Journal, vol. 21(5), 2013, pages 696-699 1818-4952 http://www.idosi.org/wasj/wasj21(5)13/7.pdf http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/34492 en IDOSI Publications
