Abstract

We have used four-wave mixing in hot atomic vapors to generate multi-spatial-mode entangled optical fields. I will review and discuss our recent progress in the construction of phase-sensitive and phase-insensitive amplifiers with this technique.

Squeezed Light and Entangled Images from Four-Wave-Mixing in Hot Rubidium Vapor

Raphael C. Pooser, Vincent Boyer, Alberto M. Marino +1 more

Entangled multi-spatial-mode fields have interesting applications in quantum information, such as parallel quantum information protocols, quantum computing, and quantum imaging. We study the use of a nondegenerate four-wave mixing process in rubidium vapor at 795 nm to demonstrate generation of quantum-entangled images. Owing to the lack of an optical resonator cavity, the four-wave mixing scheme generates inherently multi-spatialmode output fields. We have verified the presence of entanglement between the multi-mode beams by analyzing the amplitude difference and the phase sum noise using a dual homodyne detection scheme, measuring more than 4 dB of squeezing in both cases. This paper will discuss the quantum properties of amplifiers based on four-wave-mixing, along with the multi mode properties of such devices.
