Quantum reconstruction of an intense polarization squeezed optical state.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We perform a reconstruction of the polarization sector of the density matrix of an intense polarization squeezed beam starting from a complete set of Stokes measurements. By using an appropriate quasidistribution, we map this onto the Poincaré space, providing a full quantum mechanical characterization of the measured polarization state.

Quantum Squeezed Light Propagation in an Optical Parity-Time (PT)-Symmetric Structure
We investigate the medium effect of a parity-time (PT)-symmetric bilayer on the quantum optical properties of an incident squeezed light at zero temperature (T=0 K). To do so, we use the canonical quantization approach and describe the amplification and dissipation properties of the constituent layers of the bilayer structure by Lorentz model to analyze the quadrature squeezing of the outgoing ...

We investigate quantum correlations in continuous wave polarization squeezed laser light generated from one and two optical parametric amplifiers, respectively. A general expression of how Stokes operator variances decompose into two mode quadrature operator variances is given. Stokes parameter variance spectra for four different polarization squeezed states have been measured and compared with...
متن کاملQuantum-enhanced Optical Magnetometer Using Squeezed Light in Atomic Vapor
We have built an optical magnetometer based on the nonlinear Faraday effect in hot Rb vapor and probe this device with both coherent light and polarization-squeezed light. We generate the squeezed light states using the polarization self-rotation effect in Rb vapor, optimized for the highest noise suppression, giving us a system which is allatomic. By probing with polarization-squeezed states o...
متن کاملAll-atomic source of squeezed vacuum with full pulse-shape control
We report on the generation of pulses of a low-frequency squeezed vacuum with noise suppression >2 dB below the standard quantum limit in a hot resonant 87Rb vapour with polarization self-rotation. We demonstrate the possibility of precisely controlling the temporal profile of the squeezed noise quadrature by applying a calibrated longitudinal magnetic field, without degrading the maximum amoun...
متن کاملOptical manipulation of collective spin correlations in semiconductors with a squeezed vacuum of polarized photons
We calculate the transfer rate of correlations from polarization entangled photons to the collective spin of a many-electron state in a two-band system. It is shown that when a semiconductor absorbs pairs of photons from a two-mode squeezed vacuum, certain fourth-order electron-photon processes correlate the spins of the excited electron pairs of different quasimomenta. Different distributions ...
