Generation of polarization-entangled photon pairs with arbitrary joint spectrum
We present a scheme for generating polarization-entangled photons pairs with arbitrary joint spectrum. Specifically, we describe a technique for spontaneous parametric down-conversion in which both the center frequencies and the bandwidths of the down-converted photons may be controlled by appropriate manipulation of the pump pulse. The spectral control offered by this technique permits one to ...
متن کاملCompact source of polarization-entangled photon pairs.
We present a compact source of polarization-entangled photon pairs at a wavelength of 805 nm using a violet single-mode laser diode as the pump source of type-II spontaneous parametric down-conversion. The source exhibits entanglement and pair-rate comparable to conventional systems utilizing large frame ion lasers thus significantly increases the practicality of novel quantum information or qu...
متن کاملOptimal generation of pulsed entangled photon pairs
We experimentally investigate a double-pass parametric down-conversion scheme for producing pulsed, polarization-entangled photon pairs with high visibility. The amplitudes for creating photon pairs on each pass interfere to compensate for distinguishing characteristics that normally degrade two-photon visibility. The result is a high-flux source of polarization-entangled photon pulses that doe...
متن کاملPlasmonic nanoantennas for efficient control of polarization-entangled photon pairs
We suggest a source of polarization-entangled photon pairs based on a cross-shaped plasmonic nanoantenna driven by a single quantumdot. The integration of the nanoantennawith ametalmirror overcomes the fundamental tradeoff between the spontaneous emission (SE) enhancement and the extraction efficiency typical ofmicrocavityand nanowire-based architectures.With a very high extraction efficiency o...
متن کاملThree-color Sagnac source of polarization-entangled photon pairs.
We demonstrate a compact and stable source of polarization-entangled pairs of photons, one at 810 nm wavelength for high detection efficiency and the other at 1550 nm for long-distance fiber communication networks. Due to a novel Sagnac-based design of the interferometer no active stabilization is needed. Using only one 30 mm ppKTP bulk crystal the source produces photons with a spectral bright...
