Squeezed-light source for superresolving microscopy.
We propose a source of multimode squeezed light that can be used for superresolving microscopy. This source is an optical parametric amplifier with a properly chosen diaphragm on its output and a Fourier lens. We demonstrate that such an arrangement produces squeezed prolate spheroidal waves that are the eigenmodes of the optical imaging scheme used in microscopy and discuss the conditions of t...
متن کاملQuantum Fluctuations in Superresolving Microscopy with Squeezed Light
We numerically investigate the role of quantum fluctuations in superresolution of optical objects. First, we confirm that when quantum fluctuations are not taken into account, one can easily improve the resolution by one order of magnitude beyond the diffraction limit. Then we investigate the standard quantum limit of superresolution which is achieved for illumination of an object by a light wa...
متن کاملA squeezed light source operated under high vacuum.
Non-classical squeezed states of light are becoming increasingly important to a range of metrology and other quantum optics applications in cryptography, quantum computation and biophysics. Applications such as improving the sensitivity of advanced gravitational wave detectors and the development of space-based metrology and quantum networks will require robust deployable vacuum-compatible sour...
متن کاملQuantum memory for squeezed light.
We produce a 600-ns pulse of 1.86-dB squeezed vacuum at 795 nm in an optical parametric amplifier and store it in a rubidium vapor cell for 1 mus using electromagnetically induced transparency. The recovered pulse, analyzed using time-domain homodyne tomography, exhibits up to 0.21+/-0.04 dB of squeezing. We identify the factors leading to the degradation of squeezing and investigate the phase ...
متن کاملSqueezed light from spin-squeezed atoms.
We propose to transfer quantum correlations from atoms to light by Raman scattering of a strong laser pulse on a spin-squeezed atomic sample. We prove that the emission is restricted to a single field mode which perfectly inherits the quantum correlations of the atomic system.
