Squeezed states of light and photon-noise-free control of light wavefront

I. V. Sokolov

This paper provides a simple physical consideration of a new type of squeezed state of light: space-time squeezed state. As it was shown recently, spatial-multimode broadband squeezed light can generate (by homodyne detection) photon counting statistics that are regular not only in time, but also in the plane of observation. A possible advantage of application of space-time squeezed light in a number of areas of quantum optics (i.e., low-noise generation, detection of optical images, Fourier optics, and holography) is discussed from an elementary point of view.

Experimental study on the imaging of the squeezed state light at 1064 nm

L. Chen, Shulei Bi, Bao zhu Lu

Stable, low noise, infrared squeezed state tight at 1064 nm is generated by utilizing optical parametric down-conversion (OPDC) technique based on periodically poled KTiOPO 4 in a optical parametric amplifier (OPA) resonator. A non-classical noise reduction of 2.58 dB below the shot noise is observed through balanced homodyne detection. The squeezed state light is used to set up an imaging system for high-resolution imaging, and it is found that the resolution of image based on the amplitude-squeezed light is 1.26 times larger than that of infrared coherent light under the same intensity. The experimental results indicate that squeezed light is an important non-classical light, which can overcome the coherent laser shot-noise, the classical diffraction limit and limit of quantum noise.

Spatial behavior of nonclassic light

Mikhail I. Kolobov

Summary form only given.It has previously been shown that a traveling-wave optical parametric amplifier can generate multimode squeezed states of light. Homodyne detection of multimode squeezed light, under certain physical conditions, results in sub-Poissonian statistics of photons not only in time but also in the transverse plane of the light beam. Of particular relevance to applications is a situation when the cross section of the light beam contains several nonoverlapping areas with sub-Poissonian statistics of photons within each of them. Under photodetection of such a beam of light, several sub-shot-noise photocurrents can be produced according to the number of independent areas with sub-Poissonian statistics. This is in drastic contrast to the case of a single-mode sub-Poissonian light beam, where any attempt to collect light only from a part of the beam deteriorates the degree of shot-noise reduction. This property of multimode squeezed light opens a range of new interesting applications in optical imaging, optical parallel processing of information, parallel computing, and many other phenomena where it is desirable to have the regular statistics of photons across the transverse plane of the electromagnetic wave. We describe the application of multimode squeezed light in sub-shot-noise microscopy, noiseless amplifications of optical images, and optical imaging. We also consider the possibility of improving the resolution in optical imaging and microscopy beyond the Rayleigh limit via multimode squeezed light.
