Nondegenerate Parametric Amplification in Superlattices and the Limits of Strong and Weak Dissipation
نویسنده
چکیده
We develop a semiclassical theory of the nondegenerate parametric amplification in a single miniband of superlattice. We present the formulas describing absorption and gain of signal and idler fields in superlattice and analyze the limiting cases of strong and weak dissipation. We show how the well-known Manley-Rowe relations arise in the tight-binding lattice in the weak dissipation limit. Our results can be applied to an amplification of THz signals in semiconductor superlattices and a control of nonlinear transport of cold atoms in optical lattices.

Raman-noise induced quantum limits for χ nondegenerate phase-sensitive amplification and quadrature squeezing
We present a quantum theory of nondegenerate phase-sensitive parametric amplification in a χ nonlinear medium. The non-zero response time of the Kerr (χ) nonlinearity determines the quantum-limited noise figure of χ parametric amplification, as well as the limit on quadrature squeezing. This non-zero response time of the nonlinearity requires coupling of the parametric process to a molecular-vi...
متن کاملHölder continuity of solution maps to a parametric weak vector equilibrium problem
In this paper, by using a new concept of strong convexity, we obtain sufficient conditions for Holder continuity of the solution mapping for a parametric weak vector equilibrium problem in the case where the solution mapping is a general set-valued one. Without strong monotonicity assumptions, the Holder continuity for solution maps to parametric weak vector optimization problems is discussed.
متن کاملQuantum-limited amplification and parametric instability in the reversed dissipation regime of cavity optomechanics.
Cavity optomechanical phenomena, such as cooling, amplification, or optomechanically induced transparency, emerge due to a strong imbalance in the dissipation rates of the parametrically coupled electromagnetic and mechanical resonators. Here we analyze the reversed dissipation regime where the mechanical energy relaxation rate exceeds the energy decay rate of the electromagnetic cavity. We dem...

The Feshbach shape resonances in the interband pairing in superconducting superlattices of quantum wells or quantum stripes is shown to provide the mechanism for high Tc superconductivity. This mechanism provides the Tc amplification driven by the architecture of material: superlattices of quantum wells (intercalated graphite or diborides) and superlattices of quantum stripes (doped high Tc c...
متن کاملCoherent collisions between Bose-Einstein condensates.
We study the nondegenerate parametric amplifier for matter waves, implemented by colliding two Bose-Einstein condensates. The coherence of the amplified waves is shown by observing high contrast interference with a reference wave and by reversing the amplification process. Since our experiments also place limits on all known sources of decoherence, we infer that relative number squeezing is mos...
