Abstract

Here we introduce a new quantum-optical tool for dispersion management. This technique allows for simultaneous observation of quantum cancellation of odd-order and even-order dispersion using frequency-anticorrelated entangled photons.

The even-order dispersion cancellation effect based on the frequency anti-correlated photon pairs has attracted much attention in the research of quantum dispersion cancellation in two-photon systems.In this letter, we demonstrate a four-photon quantum interferometry in which we can not only observe the even-order dispersion cancellation effect but also the odd-order cancellation.Importantly, the four-photon scheme can get a much better resolution than the two-photon case and help us get a better understanding of the interference phenomenon in a four-photon interferometry.

Odd- and Even-Order Dispersion Cancellation in Quantum Interferometry

Olga V. Minaeva, Cristian Bonato, Bahaa E. A. Saleh +2 more

We describe a novel effect involving odd-order dispersion cancellation. We demonstrate that odd- and even-order dispersion cancellation may be obtained in different regions of a single quantum interferogram using frequency-anticorrelated entangled photons and a new type of quantum interferometer. This offers new opportunities for quantum communication and metrology in dispersive media.

Quantum dispersion cancellation in frequency and in space

We describe our theoretical and experimental results demonstrating two new techniques for manipulating dispersion in quantum interferometry using spectral and spatial properties of optical entanglement. First, we present a novel interferometer design allowing to demonstrate a new effect of simultaneous even- and odd-order spectral dispersion cancellation in a single experiment using entangled photons with frequency anti-correlated spectrum. Second, we for the first time demonstrate a spatial counterpart of the known quantum dispersion cancellation that leads to the removal of a detrimental effect of spatial aberrations. We discuss potential applications of novel technologies in high-resolution optical measurement and for designing aberration-free imaging schemes.
