چکیده
The quantum entanglement of amplitude and phase quadratures between two intense optical beams with a total intensity of 22 mW and a frequency difference of 1 nm, which are produced from an optical parametric oscillator operating above threshold, is experimentally demonstrated with two sets of unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometers. The measured quantum correlations of intensity and phase are in reasonable agreement with the results calculated based on a semiclassical analysis of the noise characteristics given by Fabre et al. [J. Phys. (France) 50, 1209 (1989)].

Quantum interference of ultrastable twin optical beams.
We report the first measurement of the quantum phase-difference noise of an ultrastable nondegenerate optical parametric oscillator that emits twin beams classically phase locked at exact frequency degeneracy. The measurement illustrates the property of a lossless balanced beam splitter to convert number-difference squeezing into phase-difference squeezing, and thus provides indirect evidence f...
متن کاملExperimental demonstration of unconditional entanglement swapping for continuous variables.
The unconditional entanglement swapping for continuous variables is experimentally demonstrated. Two initial entangled states are produced from two nondegenerate optical parametric amplifiers operating at de-amplification. Through implementing the direct measurement of the Bell-state between two optical beams from each amplifier the remaining two optical beams, which have never directly interac...
متن کاملApplication of an all-solid-state, frequency-doubled Nd:YAP laser to the generation of twin beams at 1080 nm.
A laser-diode-pumped intracavity frequency-doubled Nd:YAP/KTP laser is presented. Over 110 mw of TEM00 single-frequency output power at 540-nm wavelength was obtained. The output green laser was employed to pump a semimonolithic nondegenerate optical parametric oscillator to produce intensity quantum correlated twin beams at 1080 nm, and the maximum quantum noise squeezing of 74% (5.9dB) on the...
متن کاملQuantum limits for cascaded nondegenerate optical parametric oscillators
The continuous variable multicolor entangled state of optical modes is one of the essential quantum resources for constructing quantum information networks composed of many nodes and channels. It has been well proved that the cascaded nondegenerate optical parametric oscillators (CNOPOs) are the most successful devices to produce bright entangled optical beams with different wavelengths. Here, ...
متن کاملExperimental generation of 6 dB continuous variable entanglement from a nondegenerate optical parametric amplifier.
We experimentally demonstrated that the quantum correlations of amplitude and phase quadratures between signal and idler beams produced from a non-degenerate optical parametric amplifier (NOPA) can be significantly improved by using a mode cleaner in the pump field and reducing the phase fluctuations in phase locking systems. Based on the two technical improvements the quantum entanglement meas...
