Abstract

By appropriately structuring the optical field of a 40-nm-bandwidth single-photon wave packet, we couple the photon into a 150-pm-linewidth planar Fabry-Pérot cavity with 22-nm free-spectral-range, thereby demonstrating for the first time single-photon omni-resonance.

Broadband entangled-photon omni-resonance in a planar optical cavity

Bryan L. Turo, Layton A. Hall, Bahaa E. A. Saleh +1 more

Resonant field enhancement in an optical cavity is a promising pathway towards realizing optical nonlinearities at the few-photon level. This quest is hampered by inevitable narrowing of the resonant linewidth as the cavity finesse is increased, which necessitates striking a compromise between the magnitude of the field enhancement and the bandwidth over which it is harnessed. This difficulty is exacerbated for broadband entangled-photon pairs, which are typically frequency-anticorrelated, so that the two photons cannot be simultaneously admitted to a cavity except when the degenerate wavelength coincides with a cavity resonance. Here we show that introducing judicious angular dispersion into single-photon and entangled-photon states before incidence on a planar Fabry-P{é}rot (FP) cavity renders these non-classical fields omni-resonant: the entire spectrum is coupled to a single longitudinal cavity mode. Making use of a planar FP cavity of finesse $\approx100$, resonant linewidth $\approx0.3$~nm, and free spectral range $\approx22$~nm in the near-infrared, we couple single-photon states and frequency-anticorrelated entangled-photon states of 20-nm bandwidth to a broadband achromatic resonance associated with a single underlying narrowband longitudinal FP-cavity mode -- thereby preserving the entangled spectral structure. In general, pre-conditioning the optical field by introducing angular dispersion enables coupling non-classical states of light to a single longitudinal cavity mode, even if the field bandwidth far exceeds the resonant linewidth, or even exceeds the cavity free-spectral-range. These results pave the way to broadband resonant interactions with non-classical states of light in photon-starved applications.
