Squeezing at 946nm with periodically poled KTiOPO(4).
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report generation of squeezed vacuum in sideband modes of continuous-wave light at 946nm using a periodically poled KTiOPO (4) crystal in an optical parametric oscillator. At the pump power of 250mW, we observe the squeezing level of -5.6+/- 0.1dB and the anti-squeezing level of +12.7+/- 0.1dB. The pump power dependence of the observed squeezing/anti-squeezing levels agrees with theoretically calculated values when phase fluctuation of locking is taken into account.

Squeezed light for bandwidth limited atom optics experiments at the Rubidium D 1 line
We report on the generation of more than 5 dB of vacuum squeezed light at the Rubidium D1 line (795 nm) using periodically poled KTiOPO 4 (PPKTP) in an optical parametric oscillator. We demonstrate squeezing at low sideband frequencies, making this source of non-classical light compatible with bandwidth limited atom optics experiments. When PPKTP is operated as a parametric amplifier, we show a...
متن کاملFemtosecond optical parametric oscillator based on periodically poled KTiOPO(4).
We report a femtosecond optical parametric oscillator based on a periodically poled KTiOPO(4) crystal for which quasi-phase matching is achieved with a 24-microm poling period. The singly resonant parametric oscillator, synchronously pumped by a Ti:sapphire laser at a wavelength of 758 nm, generates a signal at 1200 nm and an idler at 2060 nm. The maximum signal power conversion efficiency of t...
متن کاملGeneration of squeezed light with a monolithic optical parametric oscillator: simultaneous achievement of phase matching and cavity resonance by temperature control.
We generate squeezed state of light at 860 nm with a monolithic optical parametric oscillator. The optical parametric oscillator consists of a periodically poled KTiOPO(4) crystal, both ends of which are spherically polished and mirror-coated. We achieve both phase matching and cavity resonance by controlling only the temperature of the crystal. We observe up to -8.0±0.2 dB of squeezing with th...
متن کاملQuasi-phase-matched concurrent nonlinearities in periodically poled KTiOPO(4) for quantum computing over the optical frequency comb.
We report the successful design and experimental implementation of three coincident nonlinear interactions, namely ZZZ (type 0), ZYY (type I), and YYZ/YZY (type II) second-harmonic generation of 780 nm light from a 1560 nm pump beam in a single, multigrating, periodically poled KTiOPO(4) crystal. The resulting nonlinear medium is the key component for making a scalable quantum computer over the...

Tunable mid-infrared radiation (3.45-3.75 microm) with a power level of 0.14 microW is generated by quasi-phase-matched difference-frequency mixing of a Nd:YAG laser and a tunable-diode laser (near 1.5 microm) in multigrating periodically poled KTiOAsO(4) . The wavelength and temperature bandwidths are approximately 65 nm cm and approximately 62 degrees C, respectively. The temperature-tuning s...
