Optical Second Harmonic Generation in a Whispering Gallery Mode Resonator
We are developing high quality factor whispering gallery mode resonator (WGMR) disks for use in quantum information experiments. Our polished lithium niobate disks achieved a quality factor on the order of 10. We report the use of Type-I noncritical phase matching in a lithium niobate whispering gallery mode resonator disk to produce optical second harmonic generation at λ = 532nm. This process...
متن کاملBrillouin lasing with a CaF2 whispering gallery mode resonator.
Stimulated Brillouin scattering with both pump and Stokes beams in resonance with whispering gallery modes of an ultrahigh Q calcium fluoride resonator is demonstrated for the first time. The resonator is pumped with 1064 nm light and has 3 muW Brillouin lasing threshold. The scattering is observed due to the unique morphology of the resonator reducing the phase mismatch between the optical mod...
متن کاملQuantum light from a whispering-gallery-mode disk resonator.
Optical parametric down-conversion has proven to be a valuable source of nonclassical light. The process is inherently able to produce twin-beam correlations along with individual intensity squeezing of either parametric beam, when pumped far above threshold. Here, we present for the first time the direct observation of intensity squeezing of -1.2 dB of each of the individual parametric beams ...

متن کاملBright squeezed light via second harmonic generation in a whispering-gallery mode resonator
We investigate the conditions necessary for bright squeezed light generation through second harmonic generation inside a crystalline whispering-gallery mode resonator. We show that the variance of a coherent mode can be reduced by a factor of 9 due to low loss through a nonlinear medium. This results in a one-step process that can generate efficient bright squeeze light at a desired wavelength.
