Characterizing entanglement in pulsed parametric down-conversion using chronocyclic Wigner functions
Pulsed parametric down-conversion (PDC) processes generate photon pairs with a rich spectral-temporal structure, which offer an attractive potential for quantum information and communication applications. We investigate the four-dimensional chronocyclic Wigner function WPDC(ωs,ωi,τs,τi) of the PDC state, which naturally lends itself to the pulsed characteristics of these states. From this funct...

متن کاملEntanglement in cascaded-crystal parametric down-conversion.
We use spontaneous parametric down-conversion in a cascade of crystals, driven by a single monochromatic cw pump laser, to study the interference of entangled photon pairs. By changing the distance between the crystals, the observed quantum interference pattern varies continuously from that associated with a longer single crystal to that associated with independent emissions from two distinct c...

متن کاملWigner function description of entanglement swapping using parametric down conversion: the role of vacuum fluctuations in teleportation
We apply the Wigner formalism of quantum optics to study the role of the zeropoint field fluctuations in entanglement swapping produced via parametric down conversion. It is shown that the generation of mode entanglement between two initially non interacting photons is related to the quadruple correlation properties of the electromagnetic field, through the stochastic properties of the vacuum. ...
