Stable nondegenerate optical parametric oscillation at degenerate frequencies in Na:KTP

چکیده
We report the realization of a light source specifically designed for the generation of bright continuousvariable entangled beams and for Heisenberg-limited inteferometry. The source is a nondegenerate, singlemode, continuous-wave optical parametric oscillator in Na:KTP, operated at frequency degeneracy and just above threshold, which is also of interest for the study of critical fluctuations at the transition point. The residual frequency-difference jitter is ± 150 kHz for a 3 MHz cold cavity half-width at half maximum. We observe 4 dB of photon-number-difference squeezing at 200 kHz. The Na:KTP crystal is noncritically phase-matched for a 532 nm pump and polarization crosstalk is therefore practically nonexistent.

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 کاملCooperative oscillation of nondegenerate transverse modes in an optical system: multimode operation in parametric oscillators.
We show experimentally that parametric interaction can induce a cooperative oscillation of non-simultaneously resonant transverse modes in an optical parametric oscillator. More generally, this effect is expected to occur in any spatially extended system subjected to boundary conditions where nonlinear wave mixing of two nonresonant spatial modes can generate a resonant oscillation.
متن کاملPolarization-mixing optical parametric oscillator.
We report the experimental realization of a new type of optical parametric oscillator in which oscillation is achieved by polarization rotation in a linear retarder, followed by nonlinear polarization mixing. The mixing is performed by a type II degenerate parametric downconversion in a periodically poled KTP crystal pumped by a 1064 nm pulsed Nd:YAG pump. A single, linearly polarized beam, pre...
متن کاملNonlocal Nondegenerate Optical Parametric Amplifier Based on Genuine Multipartite Entanglement
We propose a new scheme for realizing nonlocal nondegenerate optical parametric amplifier by means of genuine four-mode entanglement. The nondegenerate optical parametric amplifier is regarded as a unitary transformation from two input fields to two outputs. Two inputs and two outputs are located at the remote stations respectively. Employing off-line four-mode entanglement, homodyne detection,...
