Creating high dimensional time-bin entanglement using mode-locked lasers

چکیده
We present a new scheme to generate high dimensional entanglement between two photonic systems. The idea is based on parametric down conversion with a sequence of pump pulses generated by a mode-locked laser. We prove experimentally the feasibility of this scheme by performing a Fransontype Bell test using a 2-way interferometer with path-length difference equal to the distance between 2 pump pulses. With this experiment, we can demonstrate entanglement for a two-photon state of at least dimension D=11. Finally, we propose a feasible experiment to show a Fabry-Perot like effect for a high dimensional two-photon state.

Hybrid Mode Locked Fiber Ring Laser
Mode locked pulse generation has been reported using both active and passive mode locking schemes. Active mode locking technique has been proven to be an effective way to generate high-repetition-rate pulses by incorporating a modulator inside the laser cavity. Compared to actively mode locked lasers, passively mode locked lasers can generate pulse train at ultrashort pulse width but with relat...
متن کاملImpact of pulse dynamics on timing jitter in mode-locked fiber lasers.
We investigate the high-frequency timing jitter spectral density of mode-locked fiber lasers in different mode-locked regimes. Quantum-noise-limited timing jitter spectra of mode-locked-regime-switchable Yb fiber lasers are measured up to the Nyquist frequency with sub-100-as resolution. The integrated rms timing jitter of soliton, stretched-pulse, and self-similar Yb fiber lasers is measured t...
متن کاملSpectral line-by-line pulse shaping for optical arbitrary pulse-train generation
ulse-shaping techniques, in which user-specified ulrashort pulse fields are synthesized via parallel manipuation of optical Fourier components, are now widely dopted [1]. Among the almost arbitrary waveforms enbled by pulse shaping, one subset with particular appeal nvolves generation and manipulation of optical pulse rains. Discrete pulse train packets (or bursts) have been enerated by both Fo...
متن کاملHighly efficient femtosecond pulse stretching by tailoring cavity dispersion in erbium fiber lasers with an intracavity short-pass edge filter.
We demonstrate highly efficient pulse stretching in Er(3+)-doped femtosecond mode-locked fiber lasers by tailoring cavity dispersion using an intracavity short-pass edge filter. The cavity dispersion is preset at around zero to obtain the shortest pulsewidth. When the cutoff wavelength of the short-pass edge filter is thermo-optically tuned to overlap the constituting spectral components of mod...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional material-based saturable absorbers: towards compact visible-wavelength all-fiber pulsed lasers.
Passive Q-switching or mode-locking by placing a saturable absorber inside the laser cavity is one of the most effective and popular techniques for pulse generation. However, most of the current saturable absorbers cannot work well in the visible spectral region, which seriously impedes the progress of passively Q-switched/mode-locked visible pulsed fibre lasers. Here, we report a kind of visib...
