Abstract

We calculate the properties of a novel biphoton source based on resonant backward wave spontaneous parametric down-conversion. We show that the biphotons are generated in a single longitudinal mode having a subnatural linewidth and a correlation time exceeding 65 ns.

A miniature ultrabright source of temporally long, narrowband biphotons

Chih‐Sung Chuu, G. Y. Yin, Stephen E. Harris

We demonstrate a miniature source of long biphotons utilizing the cluster effect and double-pass pumping in a monolithic doubly resonant parametric down-converter. We obtain a biphoton correlation time of 17.1 ns with a generation rate of 1.10×105 biphotons/(s mW) and an estimated linewidth of 8.3 MHz.

We describe the generation of time-energy entangled bipotons with a subnatural linewidth and a correlation time of about 100 ns. We use electromagnetically-induced transparency in a 85Rb two-dimensional magneto-optical trap.

We report on the first-time generation of biphotons via spontaneous parametric down-conversion driven by Mie-type resonances in subwavelength metasurfaces. The measured biphoton spectrum reveals that emission predominantly occurs at the resonant wavelength of the metasurface.
