Cooperative oscillation of nondegenerate transverse modes in an optical system: multimode operation in parametric oscillators.
We show experimentally that parametric interaction can induce a cooperative oscillation of non-simultaneously resonant transverse modes in an optical parametric oscillator. More generally, this effect is expected to occur in any spatially extended system subjected to boundary conditions where nonlinear wave mixing of two nonresonant spatial modes can generate a resonant oscillation.
متن کاملStable nondegenerate optical parametric oscillation at degenerate frequencies in Na:KTP
We report the realization of a light source specifically designed for the generation of bright continuousvariable entangled beams and for Heisenberg-limited inteferometry. The source is a nondegenerate, singlemode, continuous-wave optical parametric oscillator in Na:KTP, operated at frequency degeneracy and just above threshold, which is also of interest for the study of critical fluctuations a...
متن کاملQuantum limits for cascaded nondegenerate optical parametric oscillators
The continuous variable multicolor entangled state of optical modes is one of the essential quantum resources for constructing quantum information networks composed of many nodes and channels. It has been well proved that the cascaded nondegenerate optical parametric oscillators (CNOPOs) are the most successful devices to produce bright entangled optical beams with different wavelengths. Here, ...
متن کاملTransition from single-mode to multimode operation of an injection-seeded pulsed optical parametric oscillator.
Optical-heterodyne measurements are made on ~842-nm signal output of an injection-seeded optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on periodically poled KTiOPO4 pumped at 532 nm by long (~27-ns) pulses from a Nd:YAG laser. At low pump energies (</= 2.5 times the free-running threshold), the narrowband tunable OPO output is single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) and frequency chirp can be <10 MHz, much ...
متن کاملDegenerate and nondegenerate Josephson parametric oscillators for quantum information applications
Parametric oscillations are well studied phenomena, with applications in amplification, quantum optics, and quantum information processing. They can occur as a parameter of a system, such as the resonant frequency, is being modulated or “pumped” by an external field. A nonlinearity of the system can then transfer power from the pumping frequency to two frequencies called signal and idler. When ...
