Superradiance in Parametric Fluorescence

Abstract

We show that the pair generation rate in spontaneous four-wave-mixing in a sequence of N resonators can scale quadratically with N as a result of a quantum interference in analogy with Dickie superradiant spontaneous emission.

Super spontaneous four-wave mixing

Marco Liscidini, Tatsuhiro Onodera, L. G. Helt +1 more

Using a fully quantum formalism we show that the probability of photon pair production via spontaneous four-wave-mixing in a sequence of N resonators can scale quadratically with N. This is the result of quantum interference in analogy with Dicke superradiance, in which the spontaneous emission rate scales quadratically with the number of atoms.

We demonstrate cooperative spontaneous four wave mixing in an array of silicon resonators, in which the photon pair generation rate is enhanced with respect to the incoherent sum of the rates of the individual emitters.

Parametric fluorescence in a sequence of resonators: An analogy with Dicke superradiance

Tatsuhiro Onodera, Marco Liscidini, John E. Sipe +1 more

We investigate spontaneous four-wave mixing (SFWM) in a single-channel side-coupled integrated spaced sequence of resonators (SCISSOR). Analytic expressions for the number of photon pairs generated, as well as the biphoton wave function (joint spectral amplitude) describing the pairs, are derived and numerically computed for different pump pulse durations and numbers of ring resonators. In the limit of a long input pump pulse, we show a strong analogy between super-linear scaling of generation efficiency with respect to the number of rings in the structure and Dicke superradiance. More generally, we discuss in detail the factors that influence the shape of the biphoton wave function, as well as the conditions for observing super-SFWM.

We report on the first observation of quantum interference in the spectrum of biphotons emitted via spontaneous parametric down-conversion from [110]-GaAs metasur-faces, enabled by an order of magnitude enhanced photon-pair generation rate.

We have investigated the photon statistics as well as the spectrum of the output emission from an atom-cavity system made of a small number of phase-correlated atoms undergoing superradiant lasing in a high-Q cavity.
