Analytic Solution to the Nonlinear Generation of Squeezed States in a Thermal Bath

Abstract

We model squeezed state generation in a lossy optical cavity in the presence of a thermal bath. We show that the exact solution is a squeezed thermal state, where thermal photons arise both from loss and the thermal bath. We model squeezing for a continuous wave pump below and above the critical pumping threshold.

Analytic solution to the nonlinear generation of squeezed states in a thermal bath

Paul R. B. Hughes, Marc M. Dignam

We model squeezed state generation in a lossy optical cavity in the presence of a thermal bath using the Lindblad master equation. We show that in the undepleted-pump approximation, the exact solution is a squeezed thermal state, where thermal photons arise both from loss and from the thermal bath. We derive a closed-form solution for the evolution of the quadrature uncertainty arising from pulsed degenerate spontaneous parametric down conversion in the cavity under the parametric oscillation threshold. We apply this solution under different pump conditions and show in detail how the thermal environment reduces quadrature squeezing as well as the second-order coherence function.

The properties of squeezed optical states created in lossy cavities

Hossein Seifoory, Sean Doutre, Marc M. Dignam +1 more

We investigate theoretically the properties of squeezed states generated using degenerate parametric down conversion in lossy cavities. We show that the Lindblad master equation, which governs the evolution of this system, has as its solution a squeezed thermal state with an effective temperature and squeezing parameter that depends on time. We derive analytical solutions for the time-evolution of quadrature noise, thermal photon number, squeezing parameter, and total photon number under different pumping regimes. We also find the steady state limits of the quadrature noises and discuss the $ g^{(2)} $ factor of the generated light inside the cavity in the steady state.

We theoretically investigate the properties and temporal evolution of squeezed states generated using degenerate parametric down conversion in lossy cavities. We show that the Lindblad master equation, which governs the evolution of this system, has, as its solution, a squeezed thermal state with an effective temperature and squeezing parameter that depends on time. We derive analytical solutions for the time evolution of quadrature noise, thermal photon number, squeezing parameter, and total photon number under different pumping regimes. We also find the steady state limits of the quadrature noises and discuss the g(2) factor of the generated light inside the cavity in the steady state.

Continuous-variable entanglement in a two-mode lossy cavity: An analytic solution

Colin Vendromin, Marc M. Dignam

Continuous-variable (CV) entanglement is a valuable resource in the field of quantum information. One source of CV entanglement is the correlations between the position and momentum of photons in a two-mode squeezed state of light. In this paper, we theoretically study the generation of squeezed states, via spontaneous parametric down conversion, inside a two-mode lossy cavity that is pumped with a classical optical pulse. The dynamics of the density operator in the cavity is modeled using the Lindblad master equation, and we show that the solution to this model is the density operator for a two-mode squeezed thermal state, with a time-dependent squeezing amplitude and average thermal photon number for each mode. We derive an expression for the minimum correlation variance inside the cavity that depends crucially on the difference in the losses between the two modes. We apply our analytic solution to the important example of a microring resonator that is pumped with a Gaussian pulse. The expressions that we derive will help researchers optimize CV entanglement in lossy cavities.

Simulation of thermal fragility of vacuum squeezing in two photon lossy cavity

M Sadeghi, Ahmadi, S

In this research, squeezing fragility due to thermal bath, in quantum squeezed state generation, is simulated. For this purpose, single mode dissipative cavity with non-zero second-order susceptibility is used. Cavity nonlinear medium is driving by laser pump with known frequency, and pairs of identical photons are created, with one-half frequency of driving pump. This process known as degenerate parametric down conversion. In the absence of any dissipation, simulation shows linear time dependent squeezing parameter, which is in agreement with theoretical results. In two photon loss of cavity in contact with cold reservoir, competition between gain and two photon loss, results in stable squeezing of initial vacuum, in steady state of system. At the end, has been shown that, non-zero thermal reservoir, omits the squeezing and leads the final cavity field to the thermal mixture of Fock states.
