Tailoring the Spatio-temporal Bandwidth of Biphotons via the Non-factorable Structure of Entanglement

Lucia Caspani, E. Brambilla, Luigi A. Lugiato +1 more

We investigate the spatio-temporal structure of the biphoton entanglement in Parametric Down Conversion (PDC). In particular we study the biphoton amplitude at the output face of the nonlinear crystal (near-field) and we demonstrate its X-shaped geometry in the space-time dimensions, i.e. the non-factorability of the state with respect to spatial and temporal variables. Our analysis provides a precise and quantitative characterization of this structure in various regimes and types of phase matching of PDC. The key elements of novelty emerging from our analysis are the non-factorability of the state with respect to spatial and temporal variables, and the extreme relative localization of the entangled photons, both in space (few microns) and time (few femtoseconds). This extreme localization is connected to our ability to resolve the photon positions in the source near-field. The non factorability opens the possibility of tailoring the temporal entanglement by acting on the spatial degrees of freedom of twin photons.

We investigate the spatio-temporal structure of the bi-photon entanglement in parametric down-conversion (PDC) and we demonstrate its non-factorable X-shaped geometry. Such a structure gives access to the ultra-broad bandwidth of PDC, and can be exploited to achieve a bi-photon temporal localization in the femtosecond range. This extreme localization is connected to our ability to resolve the photon positions in the source near-field. The non factorability opens the possibility of tailoring the temporal entanglement by acting on the spatial degrees of freedom of twin photons.
