چکیده
We experimentally demonstrate {0.6 dB of photocurrent noise reduction below the shot-noise limit ({1.4 dB without losses) in a phase-sensitive ampliier (nonlinear Sagnac interferometer) using two orthogonally polarized pulses to cancel the GAWBS noise.

Amplitude squeezing of light by means of a phase-sensitive fiber parametric amplifier.
We experimentally demonstrate generation of bright sub-Poissonian light by means of parametric deamplification in a phase-sensitive fiber amplifier that is based on a balanced nonlinear Sagnac interferometer. On direct detection, the photocurrent noise falls below the shot-noise limit by (0.6 +/- 0.2) dB (1.4 dB when corrected for detection losses). To observe the noise reduction we employed a ...
متن کاملFiber gyro with squeezed radiation
Received December 11, 1990; revised manuscript received April 30, 1991 A pulse-excited Sagnac fiber interferometer can perform squeezing. If this squeezed radiation is injected into a second Sagnac interferometer that is functioning as a fiber gyro that is itself nonlinear, additional unfavorable squeezing occurs in the gyro. By proper phase adjustment of the injected squeezed radiation it is p...
متن کاملWhite-light Sagnac interferometer for snapshot multispectral imaging.
The theoretical and experimental demonstration of a multispectral Sagnac interferometer (MSI) is presented. The MSI was created by including two multiple-order blazed diffraction gratings in both arms of a standard polarization Sagnac interferometer (PSI). By introducing these high-order diffractive structures, unique spectral passbands can be amplitude modulated onto coincident carrier frequen...
متن کاملDemonstration of phase-regeneration of DPSK signals based on phase-sensitive amplification.
Amplification and simultaneous phase regeneration of DPSK signals is demonstrated using a phase-sensitive amplifier. Phase-sensitive gain is achieved in a Sagnac fiber interferometer comprised of nonpolarization maintaining, highly nonlinear fiber operating in the un-depleted pump regime. Both the pump and signal are RZ-DPSK pulse trains. The amplifier is capable of producing greater than 13 dB...
متن کاملQuantum enhancement of the zero-area Sagnac interferometer topology for gravitational wave detection.
Only a few years ago, it was realized that the zero-area Sagnac interferometer topology is able to perform quantum nondemolition measurements of position changes of a mechanical oscillator. Here, we experimentally show that such an interferometer can also be efficiently enhanced by squeezed light. We achieved a nonclassical sensitivity improvement of up to 8.2 dB, limited by optical loss inside...
