Abstract

We describe the direct generation of tripartite three-color entanglement from a single optical parametric oscillator. The robustness of bipartite and tripartite entanglement against losses is also experimentally investigated.

We generated bright entangled beams in an optical parametric oscillator, operating above threshold. Tripartite pump-signal-idler entanglement, all with different frequencies, was also predicted and three-color quantum correlations already measured.

The possibility to generate multipartite entanglement in the laboratory allows further investigations of the structure of quantum correlations among many parties. We employ the optical parametric oscillator to directly produce three entangled bright beams of light and study their properties. In this tripartite continuous system, we observe a mixture of behaviours common to discrete systems pertaining to both the GHZ and the W classes of tripartite entangled states.

We measured triple quantum correlations between the bright beams in an optical parametric oscillator, operating above threshold. Owing to extra noise in the system, still unaccounted for, tripartite entanglement is yet to be demonstrated.

We experimentally investigate quantum entanglement among three beams of light produced by the optical parametric oscillator. We aim to understand how entanglement is distributed among the light beams and associated optical sideband field modes.

Bright tripartite entanglement in triply concurrent parametric oscillation

Ashton S. Bradley, M. K. Olsen, Olivier Pfister +1 more

We show that an optical parametric oscillator based on three concurrent ${\ensuremath{\chi}}^{(2)}$ nonlinearities can produce, above threshold, bright output beams of macroscopic intensities which exhibit strong tripartite continuous-variable entanglement. We also show that there are two ways that the system can exhibit a three-mode form of the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox, and calculate the extracavity fluctuation spectra that may be measured to verify our predictions.
