Control of quantized photon states with cascade phase conjugators by modulation pumping

Tsuyoshi Fukuo, Tetsuo Ogawa

Squeezing properties of a quantized photon field interacting with cascade four-wave-mixing materials (phase conjugators) are investigated theoretically by the transfer-matrix method. The controllability of the quantum fluctuation of the photon field is improved with the use of modulation pumping, in which phases of pumping beams of the phase conjugators are individually controlled even when their optical nonlinearity and/or the pumping power are fixed. By choosing appropriate numbers of phase conjugators and phase differences of the pump beams, incident coherent light is transformed to quadrature-phase-amplitude (QPA) squeezed states and photon-number-squeezed states. Optimal squeezing of both the QPA and photon number can be realized with this cascade system by modulation pumping. Partial (normal) reflection of light at surfaces of the phase conjugators is shown quantitatively to suppress the squeezing. Comparison with an ordinary method using a single-phase conjugator is also made.

Analysis of squeezed light source in band of alkali atom transitions based on cascaded optical parametric amplifiers

Yashuai Han, Xiao Zhang, Zhao Zhang +2 more

The squeezed light field in the band of alkali metal atomic transitions is an important quantum resource in the field of quantum information and precision measurement. The wavelengths of atomic transition lines (760–860 nm) are relatively short. Limited by the gray-tracking effect of nonlinear crystals, the squeezing degree of the squeezed light in this band generated by the optical parametric amplifiers is low. Now, the squeezing is about 3–5 dB. Considering the problems in the experimental generation of the squeezed light at the wavelengths of atomic transitions, the variation law of quantum noise of the light field output from the single optical parametric amplifier with its physical parameters is studied theoretically, and the optimal physical parameters are obtained. To further improve the squeezing in the band of alkali metal atomic transitions, the cascaded optical parametric amplifiers are considered. Based on the basic theory of the optical parametric amplifiers, the theoretical model of the cascaded optical parametric amplifiers is constructed, in which the optical loss and phase noise of the cascaded optical loops are considered. Based on this, the quantum noise characteristics of the light field output from the cascaded system versus the optical loss and phase noise are analyzed at the frequencies of 2 MHz and 100 kHz, respectively. It is found that for the squeezing at 2 MHz, cascading 2 to 3 optical parametric amplifiers can significantly improve the squeezing under the premise of the low optical path loss and phase noise; for the squeezing in the low-frequency band, the enhancement of the squeezing for the cascaded system is quite weak. Under the current experimental parameters, the squeezing at 2 MHz of the squeezed light on rubidium resonance can be improved from –5 dB to –7 dB by cascading another DOPA. For the squeezing at low frequency band, the cascaded system proves to be useless, and the efforts should be made to reduce the technique noise in the low frequency band. Furthermore, the quantum limit and spectral characteristics of the squeezed light field output from the cascaded system are further explored. This study can provide reference and guidance for the improvement in the squeezing degree of the band of atomic transitions.

Generation of broadband two-mode squeezed light in cascaded double-cavity optomechanical systems

Zhen Li, Sheng-li Ma, Fuli Li

The generation of two-mode broadband squeezed light is investigated in cascading double-cavity optomechanical systems. The cavities are driven by amplitude-modulated lasers with two frequency tones, one of which is red detuning and other blue detuning from the cavity fields. It is shown that a two-mode squeezed field can be generated in a single double-cavity system via dissipation of the mechanical resonator. To generate broadband and strong squeezing of the cavity fields, many identical double-cavity optomechanical systems are connected together in a cascading way. The vacuum noise fed into the cavities and the thermal noise coupled to the mechanical resonator can be greatly depressed in the cascading system. As a result, the very strong and constant squeezing can be achieved in a large frequency range when the number of cascaded optomechanical systems becomes large.
