Noiseless phase quadrature amplification via electro-optic feed-forward
The transmission of small optical signals carried by coherent light is fraught with difficulty. Attenuation of the optical power causes degradation of the signal-to-noise ratio as the signal recedes into the quantum noise of the beam. A simple method to rectify this problem would be to amplify the signal. However this is not a trivial exercise as phase insensitive amplifiers, such as laser ampl...
متن کاملNoiseless Image Ampliication by a Phase-sensitive Parametric Ampliier
Spatially-broadband optical parametric ampliier is used for image ampliication. Noise performance better than the quantum limit for a phase-insensitive ampliier is observed. Image pre-ampliication before loss is shown to improve the signal-to-noise ratio.
متن کاملNoiseless Optical Amplification of Images
We used a spatially broadband optical parametric amplifier for image amplification. In the phasesensitive configuration of the amplifier, we observed noiseless amplification of input images. For a gain of 2.5, we measured noise-figure values of (0.2 6 0.6) and (0.4 6 0.5) dB, respectively, for two amplifiers of different lengths. These experimental values agree with theory (for an ideal noisele...
متن کاملPhase-Sensitive Amplification in Optical Fibers
We describe the progress in fiber-based phase-sensitive parametric amplifiers in both frequency-degenerate and frequency-nondegenerate configurations. We discuss their applications for phase regeneration, as well as for lumped and distributed noiseless amplification. 2005 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (060.2320) Fiber optics amplifiers and oscillators; (190.4410) Nonlinear optics, par...
متن کاملContinuous - wave phase - sensitive parametric image amplification
(Received 00 Month 200x; In final form 00 Month 200x) We study experimentally parametric amplification in the continuous regime using a transverse-degenerate type-II Optical Parametric Oscillator operated below threshold. We demonstrate that this device is able to amplify either in the phase insensitive or phase sensitive way first a single mode beam, then a multimode image. Furthermore the tot...
