We describe the full characterization of BiB3O6 as a polarization entangled photon source using non-collinear type-II parametric down-conversion and experimentally demonstrate entanglement generation with up to 2.5 times higher rates compared to β-BaB2O4.

High resolution time-to-space imaging of ultra-short pulses at 1.55μm by non-degenerate SFG in PPLN crystal

Dror Shayovitz, Dan M. Marom, Harald Herrmann +3 more

We demonstrate high resolution and increased efficiency background-free time-to-space conversion using spectrally resolved non-degenerate and collinear SFG in a bulk PPLN crystal. A serial-to-parallel resolution factor of 95 and a time window of 42 ps were achieved. A 60-fold increase in conversion efficiency slope compared with our previous work using a BBO crystal [5] was recorded. Finally the measured 40 GHz narrow linewidth of the output SFG signal implies the possibility to extract phase information by employing coherent detection techniques.

On the measurement of two-photon single-mode coupling efficiency in parametric down-conversion photon sources

Stefania Castelletto, Ivo Pietro Degiovanni, Alan L. Migdall +1 more

Photon-based quantum information schemes have increased the need for light sources that produce individual photons, with many such schemes relying on optical parametric down-conversion (PDC). Practical realizations of this technology require that the PDC light be collected into a single spatial mode defined by an optical fibre. We present two possible models to describe single-mode fibres coupling with PDC light fields in a non-collinear configuration, that lead to two different results. These approaches include factors such as crystal length and walk-off, non-collinear phase-matching and transverse pump field distribution. We propose an experimental test to distinguish between the two. The goal is to help clarify open issues, such as how to extend the theory beyond the simplest experimental arrangements and, more importantly, to suggest ways to improve the collection efficiency.
