A two-mode squeezed light based on a double-pump phase-matching geometry

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/ab8abd

Abstract We theoretically investigate the frequency-nondegenerate and frequency degenerate squeezed lights with a four-wave mixing process (4WM) driven by two pump fields crossing at a small angle. Different from a 4WM process driven by a single pump field, the refractive index of the corresponding probe field, n_p, can be converted to a value that is greater than 1 or less than 1 by an angle adjustment. In the new region with n_p < 1, the bandwidth of the gain is relatively large due to the slow change in the refractive index with the two-photon detuning. In this region with an exchange of the roles of the pump and probe beams, the frequency degenerate and spatial nondegenerate twin beams can be generated, which has potential application in quantum information and quantum metrology.

Keywords: four-wave mixing phase matching frequency degenerate and spatial nondegenerate metrology
