Abstract

We employ electro-optic frequency mixing to achieve precision measurement of temporal delay between dispersive fiber-optic links by taking advantage of high-dimensional frequency-bin entanglement in a nonlocal sensing geometry.

Biphoton spectral quantum interference for information processing and delay metrology

Suparna Seshadri, Hsuan‐Hao Lu, Joseph M. Lukens +1 more

Broadband time-energy entangled photons feature strong temporal correlations with potential for precision delay metrology, but previous work has leveraged only time-of-flight information ultimately limited by the detection jitter and resolution of the time-tagging electronics. Firstly, our work pushes the entanglement-based nonlocal delay metrology from the conventional time-of-flight measurement to a new direction—two-photon interferometry with subpicosecond sensitivity independent of detection resolution. Next, we show the selective sensitivity of frequency-bin encoded Bell states to the sum and difference of biphoton-delays by using a novel reconfigurable setup capable of switching between the Bell states by successively employing single and dual spectral-line pumps.

Nonlocal cancellation of multi-frequency-channel dispersion

Xiaolong Hu, Tian Zhong, Franco N. C. Wong +6 more

We present an investigation of the temporal correlation of time-energy entangled photon pairs propagating through multi-frequency-channel dispersive media, in which photon spectra spread over multiple discrete frequency channels with dispersions. We have observed more complex coincidence structures including double coincidence envelopes and dependence on frequency detuning that are absent in the single-channel case. Our results on the correlation of the time-energy photonic entanglement in dispersive media with channel divisions would impact the fields of quantum metrology and communication.
