Observing the Transition from Classical to Quantum Photon Correlation in Four Wave Mixing

Abstract

We demonstrate two-photon interference with bi-photons produced by FWM. We explore the quantum / classical nature of the light by observing the loss dependence of the interference contrast at various intensities across the quantum-to-classical transition.

Classical-to-Quantum Transition with Broadband Four-Wave Mixing

Rafi Z. Vered, Yaakov Shaked, Yelena Ben-Or +2 more

A key question of quantum optics is how nonclassical biphoton correlations at low power evolve into classical coherence at high power. Direct observation of the crossover from quantum to classical behavior is desirable, but difficult due to the lack of adequate experimental techniques that cover the ultrawide dynamic range in photon flux from the single photon regime to the classical level. We investigate biphoton correlations within the spectrum of light generated by broadband four-wave mixing over a large dynamic range of ∼80 dB in photon flux across the classical-to-quantum transition using a two-photon interference effect that distinguishes between classical and quantum behavior. We explore the quantum-classical nature of the light by observing the interference contrast dependence on internal loss and demonstrate quantum collapse and revival of the interference when the four-wave mixing gain in the fiber becomes imaginary.

Four-Wave Mixing and Two-Photon Interference in a Three-Level Atomic Ensemble

Shengwang Du, Eun Oh, Jianming Wen +1 more

Interference of degenerate four-wave mixing in a three-level atomic ensemble is studied in both classical and quantum regimes. Biphoton interference shows photon anti-bunching or bunching effect under different situations.
