Abstract

On coupling two phase-coherent frequency-conjugate laser pulses into a microstructure fiber, we observe phase-sensitive photon generation via four-wave mixing, and suppression of Raman emission at the middle frequency.

We propose and experimentally demonstrate the generation of cross-polarized photon pairs via four-wave mixing with cross-polarized frequency-conjugate laser pump pulses. This method can be used for various quantum information applications such as the preparation of Bell-states.

A microstructure fiber two photon source with conjugate laser pumps

Jingyun Fan, Alan L. Migdall, L. J. Lang

We present a systematic experimental study of generating correlated photon pairs using a reversed degenerate four-wave mixing process. By overlapping a pair of parallel- (or cross-) polarized laser pump pulses at conjugate frequencies in a microstructure fiber, parallel- or (cross-) polarized correlated photon pairs are generated at the middle frequency. The generation rate of correlated photons by four-wave mixing with parallel-polarized laser pumps in a 1.8 meter microstructure fiber is comparable or higher than that of a parametric down conversion process in a bulk-crystal at similar pump power levels.

Generation of correlated photon pairs in a microstructure fiber

Jingyun Fan, Aristide C. Dogariu, L. J. Wang

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a new method of generating correlated photons in a microstructure fiber by means of a reversed degenerate four-wave-mixing process. Here one photon is annihilated from each of the bichromatic pump pulses to generate a pair of photons at the mean frequency. For a microstructure fiber as short as 1.5 m the measured coincidence counting rate is approximately eight times that of the accidental coincidences with a peak pump power of 0.25 W.
