Balanced homodyne detection with high common mode rejection ratio based on parameter compensation of two arbitrary photodiodes

Xiaoli Jin, Jing Su, Yaohui Zheng +3 more

A balanced homodyne detector, with a maximum common mode rejection ratio and clearance of 75.2 dB and 37 dB, is experimentally obtained with two arbitrary photodiodes of the same model. On the basis of self-subtraction photodetector scheme, we divide the influence of photodiodes on the common mode rejection ratio into two parts, including magnitude and phase of output signal. The discrepancy of quantum efficiency and dark current affects magnitude of output signal of photodiodes, which is compensated by adjusting the splitter ratio. The difference of the equivalent capacitance and resistance affects the phase of output signal of photodiodes, which is compensated by the differential fine tuning circuit and adjustable bias voltage circuit. With these designs, the developed homodyne detector can be used for measuring accurately the squeezed state.

Die-Level Balanced Homodyne Receiver for Squeezed Light Detection in the GHz Regime

Emmily Zaiser, Alessandro Trenti, Dinka Milovančev +3 more

Quantum receiver scalability and cost-effectiveness are crucial in the evolving quantum landscape. Application based on squeezed light (e.g. high-precision measurements and quantum communication), can profit especially from integrated and low-noise detectors. The presented die-level receiver is shown in figure 1 a) and combines a novel custom transimpedance amplifier (TIA) with commercial photodiodes (PDs) [1]. This offers a more scalable solution than bulk balanced homodyne detectors (BHDs) while being low-cost compared to fully customized receivers. This design targets a high bandwidth operation while maintaining low-noise properties for the detection of weak quantum signals. To characterize this receiver, we evaluate its performance through measurements of clearance, and common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR). Based on these parameters, a simulation for its performance in the squeezed light detection measurement is presented.

Detection of 10 dB vacuum noise squeezing at 1064 nm by balanced homodyne detectors with a common mode rejection ratio more than 80 dB

Chien-Ming Wu, Shu-Rong Wu, Yi-Ru Chen +2 more

We report our implementation of a squeezer, by generating squeezed vacuum state at 1064 nm through a bow-tie optical parametric oscillator cavity operated below the threshold. With the help of our home-made balanced homodyne detector (BHD), characterized with a Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) more than 80 dB, a noise reduction up to 10 dB is observed.
