Experimental characterization of quantum correlated triple beams generated by cascaded four-wave mixing processes

Zhongzhong Qin, Leiming Cao, Jietai Jing

Quantum correlations and entanglement shared among multiple modes are fundamental ingredients of most continuous-variable quantum technologies. Recently, a method used to generate multiple quantum correlated beams using cascaded four-wave mixing (FWM) processes was theoretically proposed and experimentally realized by our group [Z. Qin et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 113, 023602 (2014)]. Our study of triple-beam quantum correlation paves the way to showing the tripartite entanglement in our system. Our system also promises to find applications in quantum information and precision measurement such as the controlled quantum communications, the generation of multiple quantum correlated images, and the realization of a multiport nonlinear interferometer. For its applications, the degree of quantum correlation is a crucial figure of merit. In this letter, we experimentally study how various parameters, such as the cell temperatures, one-photon, and two-photon detunings, influence the degree of quantum correlation between the triple beams generated from the cascaded two-FWM configuration.

Experimental characterization of pairwise correlations from quadruple quantum correlated beams generated by cascaded four-wave mixing processes

Leiming Cao, Wei Wang, Yanbo Lou +2 more

We theoretically calculate and experimentally investigate the performance of the pairwise correlations from quadruple quantum correlated beams based on the cascaded four-wave mixing (FWM) processes. The experimental results have similar trends to their theoretical predictions. By properly changing the intensity gains of the cascaded FWM processes, we can gradually convert some pairs of classical correlated beams into quantum correlated beams. Our results may find potential applications in the manipulation of quantum correlated beams generated from the cascaded FWM processes.

Experimental characterization of pairwise correlations from triple quantum correlated beams generated by cascaded four-wave mixing processes

Wei Wang, Leiming Cao, Yanbo Lou +2 more

We theoretically and experimentally characterize the performance of the pairwise correlations from triple quantum correlated beams based on the cascaded four-wave mixing (FWM) processes. The pairwise correlations between any two of the beams are theoretically calculated and experimentally measured. The experimental and theoretical results are in good agreement. We find that two of the three pairwise correlations can be in the quantum regime. The other pairwise correlation is always in the classical regime. In addition, we also measure the triple-beam correlation which is always in the quantum regime. Such unbalanced and controllable pairwise correlation structures may be taken as advantages in practical quantum communications, for example, hierarchical quantum secret sharing. Our results also open the way for the classification and application of quantum states generated from the cascaded FWM processes.

Enhancement of entanglement using cascaded four-wave mixing processes

Jun Xin, Jian Feng Qi, Jietai Jing

A maximal joint quadrature squeezing of -6.8±0.4 dB is experimentally obtained by a scheme of cascaded four-wave mixing (FWM) processes, which gives strong proof about the inseparability or entanglement between output of the twin beams from the system. Here joint quadrature is the difference between the two quadratures of the twin beam output from the cascaded FWM processes. This result is enhanced by about 3.1 dB, compared with the one of the single FWM process. We also study the gain dependence of the entanglement enhancement in this cascaded system. Theoretical predictions with the considerations of the losses in the experiment are also studied, and a similar trend in the low-gain regime can be found between the experimental results and the theoretical predictions. The scheme of cascaded FWM processes, which can be used to improve or even manipulate the degree of the entanglement between the output fields from the single FWM process, may find its applications in the continuous-variable quantum communication protocols.
